I was born and raised in Cebu and its so odd to see Cebu blue with the juvenile leaves that I actually didn’t recognize them at first. They climb on trees back home and the leaves are so big and fenestrated.
I looove aglaonema. They look like a piece of art. The funny thing ist, mine is placed in one of my darkest corners. All of the other plants I had there before, acted like they were ready to die. My aglaonema instead shoots out more leafs there than it did when I had it in bright light.
Is it mostly green without the pinks and other colors in it? They require less light (because more green = more chlorophyll??) Isn’t it nice to have such a showy plant further back in the house 🙂?
@@preceptgal I own a relatively common aglaonema 'maria' wich has dark green foliage with spots of very light, almost greyish tint.. So your assumption about the more colourful varitions probably being less dark tolerant could be true?! I adore it and it is so low maintenance.
What am I doing wrong? I have the same one as Nick, and I've had it over a year. When I bought it, it was a full beautiful pot. Now it's down to maybe one stalk. I do not overwater because I have a moisture meter, but suddenly one whole stalk will just turn yellow and die. It's like death by inches. It is just breaking my heart, but it is one of the hardest plants I have ever grown. No matter where I have it in my house, it is not happy. I'm so tempted to just throw it away now, but I keep thinking maybe I'll hit the right combination of light and water and it will start to grow again. Even though I know that's not going to happen!
My first hoya surprised me by blooming between the dresser and wall, hanging out of sight, where it got an hour or so of noonish sun through a southwest facing basement window well!
My grandmother had a beautiful Hoya plant (one of the white ones) that she loved. It took up residence in the fence and covered most of it. My grandfather hated it because he liked sitting in the patio to relax and look at the cars and people walking by and the plant was obstructing his view... so he snipped it, hoping she wouldn't notice, so it would die. It did... but she figured out what had happened and wanted to strangle him. HUGE fight! 😂
Theyre beautiful when they get bushy. Before i didnt like them but when they grew more and got bushier. They look stunning. And so easy to care and very tolerant.
Hi from indonesia. Love your channel. u appreciate all kind of plants i mean not only the ‘pricey’ plants. When everybody are going crazy for rare plants, you introduce me to common but enjoyfull plants to take care of. Sorry for my english, english is not my mother language.
I have about 12 Chinese evergreen right now. I’m trying to collect all of them. I water mine every 2 days too and i have all of mine on grow lights because I love how they look under the lights. My fav is the Chocolate one. Hirts have the 6 inch for under $30. That was my first Hoya as well and also my fav Hoya. It grows like a bitch. I keep all mine in my green house in my apartment. The cebu blue is on my bucket list but have been able to afford it yet. Thank you as usual. Always enjoy your videos
I have 10 varieties if aglaonema myself and working on collecting too 😊 such an underrated plant. My favorite has to be the candy cane. Just got a starter peacock, it looks really cool when its bigger. Hope to acquire golden hope one day but it seems rare and impossible.
The colorful Aglaonemas are my new favorites! I have a favonian, a siam aurora, and the pictum tricolor, and I have to admit that each of them bring a dramatic change to the corners they're placed in. My next aglaonemas I'm excited to buy are the blush and the lady valentine (maybe the lotus if the price on them ever drops).
I'm in Australia and have several different varieties of Hoya (including a Pubicalyx) and each has its own growth pattern! They're endlessly interesting with flower shapes, leaf variety and the attitude of each plant. An amazingly diverse plant species that I am very hit and miss on growing but I continue to learn about them as I would love to grow a good size collection eventually.
I recently got my first Aglaonema about 3-4 months ago. Not sure why I haven’t had one in my 20 years with houseplants but I love it!!! I lost a fee leaves in the first 6 weeks or so until I figured out its watering preferences but after that it has been super low maintenance. I will definitely be getting more for my lower light areas and I definitely want the one in the video. Love the red on the foliage. 😍
My Hoya didn't do anything for a year. And I have a whole bunch of them. Then I read that someone in my area, Houston, put hers outside in the summer, so I put mine outside but in the shade of course. Those little suckers took off! My Bella probably tripled in size. That was the biggest grower but they all took off and grew like crazy. I took them in a few weeks ago because it was supposed to freeze, but as soon as it warms up again, I'm putting them back outside. I miss having them in the house but they are so much happier outside, even in the hottest summer.
I will say, as a person who was skeptical of neon colored plants, I am in love with them now . I had only seen neon pothos in videos or online . And then I found a local store that sells them so I went to check them out. So, I got a neon pothos. I saw it and I immediately fell in love NOW, I can't get enough neon colored plants . I highly recommend picking one up or going to see one in person . Before it had only had dark colored plants and so adding the neon gives (in my opinion) my collection a little more diversity and definitely breaks up the color scheme and makes EVERYTHING stand out a little bit more. It makes it easier on the eyes if you ask me .
Thank you! I love your rambles and always good info. I do look forward to getting a Peperomia incana one of these days. I can’t wait to pet those leaves!
I was able to get the monstera seltipicana!!! My house plant group was going crazy over them. everytime someone posted a pic with the location they were being scooped up and gone in minutes. A lovely woman in the group grabbed me one and Im so thankful for her. Same happened with the Truebii Moonlights. The were all gone i moments but atleast A wonderful plant friend gifted me a rooted cutting.
I have a Cebu Blue and LOVE it! I got mine at Walmart last year. I had it just inside my front door and it ended up not being very happy there. I moved it onto my front porch for the warm weather and it enjoyed it there. I was worried about bringing it back inside for the Winter but I put it on top of a cabinet in my master bedroom where it doesn't get any direct light and it is doing very well, so well that I'm going to leave it there. It's gotten huge and trails down at least 4 feet. I also have one small plant I propagated from it and plan on taking a few more cuttings.
I love every single one of your plants you have their beautiful🤟🤟🤟😁🥰🤩😍 I got a few plants that you had to and I have mine out on my patio and they're growing really big
Funny timing - I just saw the Red Emerald at a market yesterday , instantly decided to bring it home not even knowing what it is. It just looks so pretty! And then this video popped up in my feed !
Agree with you on the Aglaneoma...one of my fave genres & don’t see how everyone doesn’t love them. I was lucky enough to stumble across the monstera siltepecana at HD this week, I got 4 of them fresh off the cart!! All are full & lush 💚💚💚 Also scored 2 moonlights at Walmart a few weeks ago. Costa Farms has been good to us here in NH 😁👍
Coincidence... I saw a red aglaonema yesterday and I fell in love with it but didn't buy it because it was $20... and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. Now I want ro go get it, but the store is too far away. 💔😭 Btw, yours is GORGEOUS! I have several in my backyard, but mine are silver bay and snow white.
I love my peperomia Incana. It is so soft and it is easy to notice when it needs watering (the flat leaves become softer and may bend more). After this video, I will have to give mine more ☀️ ☀️ ☀️
I agree. They are such fast growers and so easy. The high prices for small pots now is so stupid 😂. I give away cuttings all the time because I am constantly trimming mine. I got mine at Walmart for like $10 a couple years ago.
I completely agree. I bought a small one online for way too much. Then, naturally, I found a rack of full baskets at a big box store. So, of course I bought one and gave the small one to my daughter. That basket has grown and grown!! I cut it back for the second time yesterday. I rooted my cuttings the last time I trimmed it. But I don't need another so yesterday's trimmings went to waste. So, if these grow so easily and rapidly and propagate readily, why are they so expensive online??
I can attest that the Philo Lemon Lime is a GORGEOUS plant to put on the corner edge of a bookshelf and just let it drape down and create a lush curtain of hearts.
I wish I could remember plant names like you do! I'm the one in the garden center asking "Do you have the one with the heart shaped leaves that have a bit of a pattern, but not too much?"
I'm so glad you gave that rhyme about the song of India. I've been looking at my little one just hanging out and not doing much... But just got her this summer. Guess I'll let her get her beauty sleep till next year😁 Also... Thank you for adding more plants to my "want" list 💖
I have two aglaonemas myself and despite the 22 dollar price tag for one (the other was a bit smaller and cost me 8 bucks), I love them! They're so nice and I actually see one in my work office's lounge area under fluorescent lightning since they're a few yards away from the windows. It's a plant you can't kill easily so the higher price tag is worth it I think 😅
I accidentally bought a fiddle leaf fig from the grocery store. She was on clearance for $5. LOL But I have a monstera my husband loves. I am looking for more plants to add to my collection. I just discovered your channel.
I have a few plants from the tradescantia family and I looooove them. In my experience, they're easy to take care of and beautiful. Especially if you like, deep purple or pinkish foliage. I totally reccomend tradescantias if you have places near you that sell them. :) Also for context, I have a tradescantia zebrina, tradescantia nanouk, tradescantia spathacea and tradescantia pallida. :) Also I have an aglaonema "sparkling Sarah" which looks similar to Nick's aglaonema "red emerald" and I can vouch, they are beautiful and easy to care for. :)
Nick, this variety of P. hederaceum is named 'Lemon' only, no 'Lime' for him. The P. domesticum, yes, you're spot on, P. domesticum 'Lemon Lime' The Peperomia has been renamed now as P. serpens
Hi Nick! That's a nice collection to show. I have one Aglaonema that I've had for quite a few years and it really hasn't done much. I bought one a few months ago, but the leaves are turning yellow, one by one. I don't know why. I'd love to find one with pink on the leaves. I think I have the Hoya pubicalyx. I've had it a long time, but for some reason it's been struggling for a while. I haven't changed the way I care for it, but it seems to be slowly dying back. It may just need to be repotted, but I may have to "chop and prop" it to save it. I love my Cebu Blue! Thank you so much for sharing! BTW, you can ramble as much as you want. I always enjoy your videos and your personality!
I agree with you Nick about Calatheas 1:40 - I managed to seemingly kill a beautiful purple one with orange flowers that I bought in memory of my late mother's birthday last summer. I don't know what I did wrong, possibly not a humid enough environment. So when the last leaves were clearly about to die, I cut it all back to the base and put it in the back room 'sick bay', next to a nicely recovering parlour palm. It was bone dry, so next time I was watering the palm I thought to give a bit of water to the 'dead' calathea. I also turned the heating on in that room when it started to get cold. Then a few weeks later - lo and behold, it's starting to sprout new leaves! So now I will be very careful - a bit of water, not too much. No direct sunlight, but not too dark. Keep her warm and sometimes let her hang out in the bathroom for some humidity (no natural light there though). Fingers crossed!
I have fallen in love with my incana as well! It literally has become one of my top favorites as well! And I prefer dark dark DARK foliage. But it’s softer than my cat, so I of course fell in love with it.
Just picked up one of those hederaceums. Normally, I'm not drawn to that color, but it was hard to resist because it reminded me of the brasil. And I knew it would be an easy one to grow.
Hey Nick! I have a question! I live in your area and I'm wondering what plant shops you love going to besides Urban Jungle? I'm curious on where I'd like to go to buy my next plant child and want to hear what places you like! Thanks! Love you and your videos!
He posted about Ott’s Exotics in Schwenksville on his Instagram and I checked it out. I was pretty pleased with it and got some healthy plants there. It is out of the city, but as far as I can tell worth the trip.
I second this! I have such a hard time finding good pots, and when he brought that on screen I was in love with it, then he said he actually made it. Dude needs to make a little side business.
I always try and recommend plants based on the persons habits. For example, do you want a plant you get forget about, have a snake plant, do you love loving your plants, get a myrtle.
My Hoya pubacalyx is growing like CRAZY!! It has such crazy tendrils! It’s grown one random leaf on a tendril and it’s so funny and cute! I personally really like the tropical looking plants (I live near the beach) so the brighter color the better (except for Hoyas 😂). But I want a cebu blue soooo bad. The blue color is so different from everything I have!
Have you ever tried a foliar feed for your hoya? I give all my new hoya 2 weeks in a humidity dome after bringing them home, and spray them with miracle grow orchid spray every 2-3 weeks and I get a lot of growth basically year round
I must just be lucky enough to have the right conditions for calatheas in my house even though I live in Tasmania in a cool climate. They are one of my favourite plants. I know I lot of people find them difficult but I don't have to do anything to mine. They get watered and fed when necessary and routinely checked for pests as I do with all my houseplants but other than that I just leave them to their own devices and they go crazy and are looking beautiful. I do have humidifiers going, mainly for other plants so they likely benefit from that. Same with the hoyas. I grow mine in really small terracotta pots on a shelf over the kitchen sink where they don't get any direct light. I grow them in orchid mix which they absolutely love. They also love the worm juice from my worm farm mixed with a couple of drops of Charlie Carp. In fact, I'm either going to have to put up something for them to grow up, or move them because they grow so well they're getting too big for shelf in the sense they're hanging down on the bench and sink which is a total pain.
I have 4 publicalx. 2 of them i propagated. Love this hoya. Ive got 3 cebu blue too. They do grow fast and prop very easy. They are not common in no ky but i got it online.
I have the worst luck with Agleonemas...and Peperomia. They really do like to be left alone and forgotten about, in my care. And while I Love the few Hoya I have, the can take FOREVER to do anything, it seems like...except for my Obovata maybe...its not leaping but it's not sleeping either...and my Queen is finally pushing new leaves after 2 yrs. I've got them all squeezed into small, terra-cotta pots in the hopes they might thrive under a tighter fit.
Home Depot has the Cebu Blue this week. I wasn't impressed when I saw it, but it's a really vigorous plant and it asked to come home with me. How could I have said no?
@@laurachapin204 I have to confess that I'm an idiot. The plant is actually the Monstera siltepecana. I thought it was chlorotic from being inside the box it was shipped in, but no. Reb at Plantastica showed hers and I realized what I really had. Still looking for the Cebu Blue.
(Not a plant expert but I do have several I’ve kept alive.) Two basic things are don’t overwater them, they really want to wait a long time like he said at the beginning. Also, don’t “over sun” them. Mine are on the upper shelf where they are a little further out of the filtered or bright indirect light that the other plants in that area get. These have similar coloring to the one he showed. I also have one that is only slightly different shades of green, and he lives across the room (more green ones need less light, I don’t know if that would be more green = more chlorophyll or not). I just enjoy looking at them and don’t fuss with them. I hope you find any of this helpful.
Really like that you always put the plant name on screen, makes it way easier to look up later!
Yes!! I have paused his videos so may times to write down the name. It's so useful 💚💚
I think the same thing! So helpful!
Don't forget he also lists it in the description too!
It’s a sin not to put on the screen. Especially when you are like me and struggle with the pronunciation of some of them 😂😅
Yessss I have so many screen shots!
Nick being bothered by all the honking is just the cutest thing
“Thank you so much” 😁
Right….. thank you. I’m cracking up
As a Filipino person with roots to Cebu, Philippines, I thank you for pronouncing Cebu correctly, hahaha 😂
i was just about to comment too that nick is the only plant youtuber i've heard even close to pronouncing cebu correctly!
I was born and raised in Cebu and its so odd to see Cebu blue with the juvenile leaves that I actually didn’t recognize them at first. They climb on trees back home and the leaves are so big and fenestrated.
they sell it here in Manila and they're so small and expensive. I didn't even know that they're fenestrated in Cebu
its prob. dragon tail.. can't find them anywhere..
Agleonima Red Emerald! I love mine & no one ever talks about them.
I looove aglaonema. They look like a piece of art. The funny thing ist, mine is placed in one of my darkest corners. All of the other plants I had there before, acted like they were ready to die. My aglaonema instead shoots out more leafs there than it did when I had it in bright light.

I agree with you. For some reason people don't seem impressed by aglaonemas. I think they are stunning!!

So sorry about that.
I LOVE my Red Emerald!!!!! She is a SHOW STOPPER!
That Incana is so fun! Also, ramble all you like....I quite enjoy your demeanor and presentation.
Agree about the rambling!! It's always filled with fascinating info. Keep rambling, Nick!!
I would love a video on aglaonemas 🤩
I found a 6" pot of cebu blue at my local Lowes a year ago for $20. It does grow fast! I hope it becomes more common soon.
omg your "taco test" for peperomias has worked 100% for all of mine THANK YOU 💚
The colorful Aglaonemas are my new favorites!

Love listening to you. So many plant names that you know, amazing
Could you do a "shop with me" video at a readily available store, like Lowe's or Walmart? That would be awesome to see!
I'm pretty sure I look for and buy plants based off all your videos. When asked if I need more, my response is that Nick recommended it :)
When you have almost every plant Nick brings up in a video 😅
Goalsss
I recently got my first Aglaonema about 3-4 months ago. Not sure why I haven’t had one in my 20 years with houseplants but I love it!!! I lost a fee leaves in the first 6 weeks or so until I figured out its watering preferences but after that it has been super low maintenance. I will definitely be getting more for my lower light areas and I definitely want the one in the video. Love the red on the foliage. 😍
My Hoya didn't do anything for a year. And I have a whole bunch of them. Then I read that someone in my area, Houston, put hers outside in the summer, so I put mine outside but in the shade of course. Those little suckers took off! My Bella probably tripled in size. That was the biggest grower but they all took off and grew like crazy. I took them in a few weeks ago because it was supposed to freeze, but as soon as it warms up again, I'm putting them back outside. I miss having them in the house but they are so much happier outside, even in the hottest summer.
I will say, as a person who was skeptical of neon colored plants, I am in love with them now . I had only seen neon pothos in videos or online . And then I found a local store that sells them so I went to check them out. So, I got a neon pothos. I saw it and I immediately fell in love NOW, I can't get enough neon colored plants . I highly recommend picking one up or going to see one in person . Before it had only had dark colored plants and so adding the neon gives (in my opinion) my collection a little more diversity and definitely breaks up the color scheme and makes EVERYTHING stand out a little bit more. It makes it easier on the eyes if you ask me .
Thank you! I love your rambles and always good info. I do look forward to getting a Peperomia incana one of these days. I can’t wait to pet those leaves!
I just love aglaonema and hoya.. greetings from india
Aglaonema feature video would be awesome!
I was able to get the monstera seltipicana!!! My house plant group was going crazy over them. everytime someone posted a pic with the location they were being scooped up and gone in minutes. A lovely woman in the group grabbed me one and Im so thankful for her. Same happened with the Truebii Moonlights. The were all gone i moments but atleast A wonderful plant friend gifted me a rooted cutting.
I absolutely love that people are finding scindapsus truebii moonlight as well. It’s finally becoming available & luckily I got my paws on one

Everytime Nick talks about how easily some plants are to find in plant stores near Philly, it makes my new Hampshirite self want to move lol.
Love ❤️ my Aglonemia , it’s my favourite 🤩 thanks Nic 🧤👒🐨🦘🇦🇺😉
Hi Nick! That's a nice collection to show. I have one Aglaonema that I've had for quite a few years and it really hasn't done much. I bought one a few months ago, but the leaves are turning yellow, one by one. I don't know why. I'd love to find one with pink on the leaves. I think I have the Hoya pubicalyx. I've had it a long time, but for some reason it's been struggling for a while. I haven't changed the way I care for it, but it seems to be slowly dying back. It may just need to be repotted, but I may have to "chop and prop" it to save it. I love my Cebu Blue! Thank you so much for sharing! BTW, you can ramble as much as you want. I always enjoy your videos and your personality!
Cebu blue are my favorite 🥰
I really liked the Emerald Red Chinese Evergreen and the felt leaf Pepperomia you really do have really pretty plants 🌱 thanks for the video
This new color is everything!! 🖤
I agree with you Nick about Calatheas 1:40 - I managed to seemingly kill a beautiful purple one with orange flowers that I bought in memory of my late mother's birthday last summer. I don't know what I did wrong, possibly not a humid enough environment. So when the last leaves were clearly about to die, I cut it all back to the base and put it in the back room 'sick bay', next to a nicely recovering parlour palm. It was bone dry, so next time I was watering the palm I thought to give a bit of water to the 'dead' calathea. I also turned the heating on in that room when it started to get cold. Then a few weeks later - lo and behold, it's starting to sprout new leaves! So now I will be very careful - a bit of water, not too much. No direct sunlight, but not too dark. Keep her warm and sometimes let her hang out in the bathroom for some humidity (no natural light there though). Fingers crossed!
i have all my ferns and calathea/maranta folk clustered around my humidifier and all are happy! ( in minnesota with forced air heat)
I have fallen in love with my incana as well! It literally has become one of my top favorites as well! And I prefer dark dark DARK foliage. But it’s softer than my cat, so I of course fell in love with it.
I think Dracaenas are so underrated. Yes they're in every mall in the country by the buttload but they're such great plants.
Just picked up one of those hederaceums. Normally, I'm not drawn to that color, but it was hard to resist because it reminded me of the brasil. And I knew it would be an easy one to grow.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Just bought the Cebu Blue and love it!
Hey Nick! I have a question! I live in your area and I'm wondering what plant shops you love going to besides Urban Jungle? I'm curious on where I'd like to go to buy my next plant child and want to hear what places you like! Thanks! Love you and your videos!
Same. I 2nd this. I'm dying to know.
He posted about Ott’s Exotics in Schwenksville on his Instagram and I checked it out. I was pretty pleased with it and got some healthy plants there. It is out of the city, but as far as I can tell worth the trip.
@@exfed45 otts for sure. I went last Saturday. Very nice selection.
Just One More Plant Quakertown, Pa
I love the Cebu Blue!! Thanks for the recommendations!
Have you considered making and selling pots? Your pots are beautiful.
I second this! I have such a hard time finding good pots, and when he brought that on screen I was in love with it, then he said he actually made it. Dude needs to make a little side business.
Thank you for the recommendations Nick! 💚
I always try and recommend plants based on the persons habits. For example, do you want a plant you get forget about, have a snake plant, do you love loving your plants, get a myrtle.
My Hoya pubacalyx is growing like CRAZY!! It has such crazy tendrils! It’s grown one random leaf on a tendril and it’s so funny and cute!
I personally really like the tropical looking plants (I live near the beach) so the brighter color the better (except for Hoyas 😂). But I want a cebu blue soooo bad. The blue color is so different from everything I have!
Have you ever tried a foliar feed for your hoya? I give all my new hoya 2 weeks in a humidity dome after bringing them home, and spray them with miracle grow orchid spray every 2-3 weeks and I get a lot of growth basically year round
Just to clarify, for those of us who lost our jobs during the plague, $30 for a houseplant is expensive. That said, I love that Aglaonema!
I must just be lucky enough to have the right conditions for calatheas in my house even though I live in Tasmania in a cool climate. They are one of my favourite plants. I know I lot of people find them difficult but I don't have to do anything to mine. They get watered and fed when necessary and routinely checked for pests as I do with all my houseplants but other than that I just leave them to their own devices and they go crazy and are looking beautiful. I do have humidifiers going, mainly for other plants so they likely benefit from that. Same with the hoyas. I grow mine in really small terracotta pots on a shelf over the kitchen sink where they don't get any direct light. I grow them in orchid mix which they absolutely love. They also love the worm juice from my worm farm mixed with a couple of drops of Charlie Carp. In fact, I'm either going to have to put up something for them to grow up, or move them because they grow so well they're getting too big for shelf in the sense they're hanging down on the bench and sink which is a total pain.
I have 4 publicalx. 2 of them i propagated. Love this hoya. Ive got 3 cebu blue too. They do grow fast and prop very easy. They are not common in no ky but i got it online.
i love this hair cut and your hair color! you are so handsome!!!!
Love ya, Nick. Thanks so much.
I have the worst luck with Agleonemas...and Peperomia. They really do like to be left alone and forgotten about, in my care. And while I Love the few Hoya I have, the can take FOREVER to do anything, it seems like...except for my Obovata maybe...its not leaping but it's not sleeping either...and my Queen is finally pushing new leaves after 2 yrs. I've got them all squeezed into small, terra-cotta pots in the hopes they might thrive under a tighter fit.
I decided to watch this at 2x speed and it’s very enjoyable would recommend 😂
Especially at -15:53
That hoya p is gorgeous
I agree I Love my Red emerald❤🌱❤
I bought 2 aglow like this first one in video not as big and not as lush as in the video. Easy to care.
Home Depot has the Cebu Blue this week. I wasn't impressed when I saw it, but it's a really vigorous plant and it asked to come home with me. How could I have said no?
You had no choice.
@@laurachapin204 I have to confess that I'm an idiot. The plant is actually the Monstera siltepecana. I thought it was chlorotic from being inside the box it was shipped in, but no. Reb at Plantastica showed hers and I realized what I really had. Still looking for the Cebu Blue.
My houseplants never ‘sleep’ in their first year. Once settled in their new home they usually grow like crazy🙂
Nick love your channel. Would you please put a mask on and take us for a #plantshophop??? It's time for a road trip!
AFAIK Philodendron and the Peperomia are both scandens because they both have a scandent growth habit, scandent meaning climbing.🌱🧗🌱
👀 red emerald 💗 And the Cebu blue!!
Explain to me how I kill every Aglaonema I buy lmao I've been burned so many times now
Me too! I have over 10 happy thriving calatheas but I can't seem to keep an aglaonema alive!
Same I have 3 on life support right now, I just look at them and another leaf dies. My son say just give up and toss them.
(Not a plant expert but I do have several I’ve kept alive.) Two basic things are don’t overwater them, they really want to wait a long time like he said at the beginning. Also, don’t “over sun” them. Mine are on the upper shelf where they are a little further out of the filtered or bright indirect light that the other plants in that area get. These have similar coloring to the one he showed.
I also have one that is only slightly different shades of green, and he lives across the room (more green ones need less light, I don’t know if that would be more green = more chlorophyll or not).
I just enjoy looking at them and don’t fuss with them.
I hope you find any of this helpful.
@@preceptgal I have a small Valentine? I think it’s called and it’s doing really well! I agree, I think they are stunning plants and very underrated
Love the peperomia scandens
I love all of these plants 🪴
