    Hi Betsy! This was another fun video. I love your sense of humor, and you look gorgeous, as usual! I'm glad you covered some plants that aren't on everyone's lists for low light plants. I've been wanting to try begonias, cane begonias in particular, but thought they would need more light than I could provide, so it's good to know they don't require a lot. Do the "Rex" begonias need more light? Just curious because some have such beautiful leaves. I remember your video on the spider mites on your Calathea musaica. That was so much fun to watch! I hope this one won't put you through that, too! I'd like to find a

    Tu prononces Comte de Miribel parfaitement, il n'y a rien à excuser!!!
    I commiserate re bad weather this year. I'm in the northern half of Belgium and it's been horrible! Pretty much all the vegetables I grow in my garden failed this year. We've had nothing but cold and rain 😭
    Thankfully my houseplants fared a bit better but only because they were saved from drowning!
    That Primula looks awesome, I'll keep my eye out for one.
    PS I would love if you could feature more EU-centric or EU-friendly vendors as sponsors. I understand the biggest market is North America but those of us here want choices too! I love Soltech lights but between shipping, import tax, TVA and processing fees, they are completely out of reach! 😱
    Maybe you can convince some manufacturers that Europe is a worthy market too!

    Howdy Betsy! I've always avoided begonias due to fearing they need too much humidity, and I'm not willing to use a terrarium. I might have to give one of these a shot though! I've had the calathea medallion for a couple years, and like you said it's constantly got brown edges. Good to know the musaica is less fussy, I'll be open to getting one in the future now. Do you know how a Maranta would do compared to a medallion? I've always wanted one but I'm hesitant after my experience with the calathea medallion.

Please can you do an in-depth update on your nose, e.g. how you are feeling with it now, how you are adjusting to it, how others have reacted, what has changed, expectations v reality, how you feel about your surgeon, and are you still happy you did it, etc. (Just throwing some ideas out there and it's just a suggestion- I get it if you don't want to talk about it again!) ...

      Hi, thanks for the suggestion and for the kind comment about my appearance. It hasn't yet been 6 months and I am still healing. And to be honest, it's been quite difficult to see negative comments while I'm still on the mend and my nose continues to change on a weekly basis. With each update I get an influx of people who find my video and say awful things without thinking about the effect they have on me as a person, so I have not been motivated to do any "extra" updates between the milestones I decided on. I plan to provide updates when it seems appropriate in terms of the healing timeline which takes 1 year. 💚 I hope you have a lovely day.
