    I’m sorry to hear about your thanksgiving cactus. The same thing happened to me, my very full Argyraeus came crashing down and lobbed off a vine from my N’Joy that I’ve been trying to grow all year. Then instead of dealing with it, I put it back, and down it came once again! 😳 I’ve since put my Argyraeus in a heavy cover pot so it will stay put!

    Beautiful plants! You asked about moss poles: I felt that my DIY mesh poles were drying out too fast, so I ordered some Grow Vertical poles (like Sydney Plant Guy uses) from Australia. They are quite sturdy and large, while still having that plastic backing. I like that I can see all the roots with the clear plastic option. Cons - Lots of visible zip ties, though not an issue if the plant is full enough to hide them, and some of the black paint on the wire mesh front was coming off on my hands when I was assembling, which made me worry that it would come off during watering, but it hasn't they are still black and I haven't seen any rust.

    I love pings also!🥲💸 Since you like the cyclosecta I recommend a hybrid of it called Pinguicula moranensis var. alba ‘Molango’ x cyclosecta and Pinguicula leilani. They’re both a lighter purple and they’re my favorites in my collection. And another that’s really colorful is Pinguicula laueana CP2 x emarginata.🙂

  • @micansmycos

    Idk, the thai con will forever be on my list of favorites. She makes me work :DD (brought my first thai con back from severe rot this year, and adopted a second one because I was so sure my first one would just die on me)
    The syngonium albo is also so stunning! I had mine on a mosspole but then ended up making the same decision as you to just chop and prop to have a lush shrub moment.

    @mindfulmadeline Рік тому +1

    They will move into their wintering phase on their own, and you will notice the leaves change and become almost like a succulent. They become super compact and thick. I’ve only had one do that, so I pulled it out of its water reservoir, and just gave it a tiny bit of water every now and then. Once it got warm it started growing those bigger paddle like leaves, and I knew that it was time to put it back in its reservoir. So don’t worry about it unless they tell you!

So don’t fret, she will be okay! 🌵❤ Also I love your content and your collection it honestly inspires me especially when I’m feeling that seasonal depression, which can keep me from caring for my plants as well.

    I love your channel. I've been watching since you started! The following comment is about the general direction of every Rare House Plant channel I follow - I REALLY MISS the educational vlogs!!! I mean it's lovely and interesting to see your plant collections and favorites or never-buy-agains, but it seems the basic info to the specific anecdotes of how you grew, saved, propped, or otherwise learned about the plant is the content of a bygone era. Maybe you covered it in part of another vlog, and feel like you're repeating, but for us amateurs, we then have to do searches, and that rarely works. Does anyone else feel the same way?
