Repot & Chat: Philodendron Dean McDowell Propagation Secrets!

[@Planty-Mandy]

Hey thanks for the shout out! 💚 I only have the Gloriosum, but it’s fairly new and I saw tons of thrips larvae on it so I panicked and chopped its leaves off. 😅 It’s starting to regrow now thankfully!

[@PlantswithKevin]

Thanks for responding to my posts! LOL I’m glad it’s starting to regrow! :-)

[@KevinTorres-wx2si]

[@PlantswithKevin]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I also have the Dean McDowell and it’s quite quirky. Part of the rhizome is crawling and part is sticking up in the air. It’s like a gangly pre-teen. My summer glory is also crawling

[@PlantswithKevin]

That's awesome! The Dean McDowell really does have its own personality, doesn't it? It's fascinating to see how unique each plant can be.

I repotted my Ficus Tineke last week by separating two of the plants.
I have been trying to grow roots on my Anthurium Pendens that I bought from the Orchad Fest Aug. 24th. She is gorgeous, but came with root rot. She’s grown a new aroid and she’s growing roots, but wow soooo slow! I can’t believe you have roots after 4 weeks!
Because your plant has water roots, how are you going to handle her in soil?

[@PlantswithKevin]

I’ve always had success potting up water roots in soil. Never any issues :-) have you?

[@LeafyConversations]

@@PlantswithKevin No issues, but its so slooooowwwww. I add Mycho, Fertilizer too on and off, so I am not sure why it takes so long for me.
