Thank you!
Peperomia Obtusifolia I call John's plant. My eldest brother gave my Mother this plant and he died a few years later. My sister kept this plant for 20 years and I never knew the name of it other then we always called it John's plant. About two year ago I found 2 on sale at a Sam's Club and brought them home and they are thriving with me. It's funny how little plants hold big meanings in our lives.
That’s amazing!
I have a big Peperomia obtusifolia that my grandmother had on her patio. When she passed away, I brought it home. She was quite overgrown, and when I pruned her, I propped a bunch of smaller plants to share with other family members. It is really special, and I feel confident giving them to plant novices, knowing that they can keep them alive.
Great stuff 👍
That’s wonderful. Your grandmother must be proud of you ❤
You are a complete delight to watch and listen to. You crack me up with your bad puns and asides and jokes, but beyond the entertainment factor, your enthusiasm and knowledge has got to be encouraging to houseplant newbies, for sure and even us more seasoned addicts. Cheers from across the pond in New Scotland.
Thanks very much 😁
Thanks very much 😁
Thanks very much 😁
I actually watch it for the charming humor. 😅
In Czechia, we call that type of Crassule "Shrek's ears" :)
Right on
I’m new to keeping plants and I’m very glad I found this channel!
Glad you like them!
Others will probably disagree, but I've found peace lilies, Alocasia wentii and chinese money plant to be among the least fussy plants in my home. I barely touch them and they seem to thrive.
Alocasia is a no from me 😅. I like them though!
Chinese money plants are duplicating themselves almost every month
Love and Peace.
Aglaonema, the famous film star! She was the only plant of the main character in the movie ‘Leon, the professional’. Leon said: “It’s my best friend, always happy, no questions.” Epic role 🪴 ⭐️ 💫
Oh yes i forgot about that 😁
Feeling so at home with all the south Yorkshire sayings! You're the best, just laughed my way through my lunch break. And learned more great house plant info. Always a pleasure! 👌✨
Thank you 😊
I shamelessly took a Chinese evergreen out of the trash bin that my neighbor threw away because it was dying and she was moving, chopped a bunch of drooping leaves off and put it in a bigger pot with fresh soil and it is doing so well. The leave design reminds me of a watercolor painting. My most low maintenance plant (besides cacti) is a ZZ plant though.
My neighbours put a ficus elastica in the trash one fall; it was just a stalk, with one leaf. I rescued it, gave it some TLC, and at Xmas, gifted them with a beautifully healed plant in a new pot, tied with a festive bow. Good flat relations! Truth be told, that is my favorite thing, rescuing plants that have gotten the death sentence. It's also earned me many a bargain when purchasing plants that look beyond rescue.
It's happy now is it?
I've saved a couple gems from the bin, it's so satisfying 😊
❤that's not shameful at all.. you saved it, you're a hero in my books! 😊
The name ZZ plant always makes me laugh because in French, a zizi (pronounced zee zee) is a willy. I need to buy one so I can giggle like a 6 year old every day. 😂
I love seeing the Hoya Lisa and the Pothos meeting together that’s dreamy 🥰🥰🥰
Leave them together please 🙏🏿 💚
Will do!
Your house looks so lovely with all your plants. For gloomy weather your house would make you feel so much better I imagine. Your humor always makes me laugh. Keep it coming I love watching your videos.
Thank you 😊
Omgawd, you're effing hilarious! Please don't ever become fake happy, happy...
I adore your brooty love/hate plant relationships and conundrums. New fan
Thanks your very much
USA here!! I love starting my day with a new Richard video!!! 👏🏻 the Hoya Lisa is on my plant wishlist. ❤
Hey 👋
the Hoya australis Lisa loves to be on very bright light, like the Oxalis triangularis, on the video it is just behind the window, unless it will drop leaves ... if you find the right spot, It will thrive
Pilea Peperomioides (money plant) is by far the easiest plant I've ever owned. I started with a little baby that quickly became gigantic. She keeps sprouting new babies. My entire circle of friends/family have them in their homes and my entire house is now Pileas.
Sounds cool 👌
Richard IVE killed that first plant. Your videos give me much happiness. Thank you for them ❤
Great stuff 👍
Great list,the ones that I have in this list I totally agree on,and the ones I don’t have from your list I’m definitely buying! That Tradenscantia is gorgeous,I’m on the lookout for one,hate it’s relatives… Good content as usual.. ❤Natalie
It’s a good’n 😁
Ficus benjamina problem...if you move it from where it is happy, it will drop (almost) every leaf. Worry not. They will come back if you are very, very patient.
They always grow back 😂
When I iived in Southern California, I had three of them, and not one grew well, no matter what I did. I finally planted them outside and they grew into huge trees. But remember, this was California and you can't do that everywhere.
Yeah, me too! Yes, the leaves grow back, but it makes a bloody mess! If you love vacuuming every day, this is the plant for you! It is lovely, when the leaves aren't turning brown and falling off and I tolerated this slob in my home once for quite some time, but when I lost custody of it, I was not exactly broken-hearted.
I’m not going to lie…. I read this as “I’ve killed 250+ plants” and clicked to get the teaaaaa…. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦
Lol
Me too!!!
Same 😂
😂
Thank you Richard, for another fantastic video. Your information is so much fun, that it doesn't feel difficult to learn 😁
You're a ⭐️
That's a VERY clarifying video. Thanks!!
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants lovely collection Beautiful video have a blessed day
Always enjoyed seeing your videos and learning. thanks
My pleasure!
Calathea roseopicta was my first houseplant. I had no idea what I was doing but shes thrived for years. Meanwhile, I cannot keep a monstera alive to save my life.
The lipstick plant is one I just can’t 😳 looks like my little dog when he’s really happy 😳
Nail and head!
Hi Richard, I am so much in love with your collection. I have managed to take care of about 70 plants in my house in Sheffield in last 3 years. I have learnt a lot over the years about a lot of plants but have hard times with succulents. Have never been able to save any. Even if I water them once in 3 or 5 months, they die immediately. Please please give us a tour of your house. I would love to see your full house plants collection.
That’s coming at the weekend 👍
some succulents need a lot of light.
think some of them might have been watered excessively at store, or come in soil that retains a lot of water. or maybe water doesn't have any where to drain.
You had me at Paolo Nutini 😍
😉
I live in humid climate and angloanema rots like hell. Peperomia too. I am able to grow succulents but most of them are either not in soil(rocks and clay balls) or very tight pots. Angloanema and Peperomia may be easy in well ventilated air-conditioned area. I find Cebu blue pothos and Micans much easier to grow in my conditions since not even one of them died from rot. Very tough plants. Very much recommended.
Thanks for the tip
Oh my gosh... THANK YOU so much for the information about the oxalis triangularis! I live in Oklahoma in the US and they're my absolute favorite indoor plants in the spring/early summer. Every single one I've ever had looks exactly like yours did, where everything is dead. Thought it was just me. And they're really hard to get around here for some reason. I had NO idea they left bulbs in the soil that you could replant for the next year, but knowing this now, I'll always have some for the next year.
Glad you found it useful 👍
Great list!
Thanks!
I've started growing all of these plants in leca. They are doing awesome
I need to get on leca!
It's awesome once you've got into it. You loose some along the way as you learn but everything is doing well down here in the land of Aus
Yay! I just found out about oxalis triangularis and bought a dozen bulbs/corms. Been less than 2 weeks and they're growing like gangbusters. So happy that you put it in this video and mentioned it's resurrection ability. Glad my research into it was correct. So cool to find such a beautiful, tropical plant that can survive in my dry california yard
Nice! It’s very nice when happy
Billie here. Love your teaching. Wish all plant teachers were like you. Still looking for a crown of thorns in your collection. Going plants shopping today. I'm getting to be plant--aholic. Is it a word????? Thank you for what you do
Ooo I’ll start using that 😁
Its kinda funny to me to hear about the importance of drainage holes, takes me back to the beginnings of my plant journey when I was kinda obsessing about having drainage holes.
Nowadays I even keep cacti and hoyas in no drainage. 😅
It all depends on your watering style.
I think I have about half and half with and without drainage holes. It really just comes down to if I like the pot.
You're a pro with experience 👍
That’s where I am now! Obsessing over drainage and yellowing leaves. So paranoid about root rot. 😢
I have a tree philodendron that I rescued in 1990. It was on the they tried to kill it first rack. Was in a 6in pot. Now after having to divide it. It now lives in two 14in and one 12in pots.
Which type of Philo is it?
I've never thought of keeping oxalis as a houseplant... I grew up snacking on wild oxalis whenever I was out in the woods to hike or go fishing. Those were native green oxalis, though, not purple. Incidentally, oxalis are delicious and an excellent additive to salads. At least, the wild kind I grew up with. Can't speak for specialized houseplants.
Thanks for this video, it made my day. It's great - combined my two most beloved things, growing plants and humour. Great job!!!! 👏👏👏👏
I subscribe to the channel
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks 😊
100% agree with the peperomia obtusfolia recommendation. Mine does not seem to care about anything. It’s thrived no matter what, and it’s almost too easy to propagate. I would say this one is even more chill than my golden pothos, which is what people usually recommend as one of the easiest plants.
They’re both very easy 👍
Thanks Mr P, I woke up feeling all Eyore donkey, now after your video and a big cup of tea I’m like happy Alice Tinker instead, nice 🥰 😂 I agree ab it the ficus benji, I carried my 5ft one home on my bicycle, its dropped a grand total of three leaves in two weeks 👍 I’m going to look out for a Hoya Lisa, see if I can get some hanging driftwood for it to clamber over. I was meaning to ask, the history of intrepid plant hunters is fascinating, I’d love to see your take on them 👍
The history of the what now?
@@SheffieldMadePlants The history of plant hunters, kind of like Indiana Jones, but with plants 😁
That Hoya looks beautiful growing with the pothos!
Hopefully it won't strangle it 😅
I recommend another calathea that's super easy- mosaica network. There's been even times i miss 2 days of watering it and it tolerates me. It takes window light- in my house it's at the not so brightest window at my house, and is doing great! One time i forgotten it for about 4 days and it got a little browning on a few of the leaves but its perfectly fine and is doing perfect. It's definitely not randomly passing out like my dottie- and giving me any issues. It's a good start and the leaves are just BEAUTIFUL!!
Oh yeah i've seen that. Very nice. Didn't know if it was tricky
My ruffibarba was the first to get spider mites then it spread to all my other Calathea. I put DE on front and back of leaves and stem and soil and left for a month. The only one to best survive
Sorry to hear that!
Haha! I love your sense of humor! 😂
Thanks!
I have a snake plant I bought on clearance, stuck in the bathroom, and haven’t watered for several months at a time, and I’ve only just now gotten around to consistently caring for it. It has pretty much waited for me, and is now growing lol
I use to have that calathea at least I’m pretty sure it was that kind.. didn’t have a name tag, it did well. I know you shouldn’t touch plants but that calathea had a nice fuzzy leaf that was fun to pet. Downside is it’s extra good at collecting dust so needs a wipe down often (or gentle wash off of leaves).
Sounds like the plant. The leaves are fuzzy
I’m going to have to add more shelves and lights since I started watching your videos. There are so many beautiful plants I want and you keep me adding more to the list! 💖🇺🇸😁
You’ve got this ✊
My Monstera was my fussiest plant yet when I understood her she is my joy learned from you a moisture meter is the way to go
Nice!
I'm laughing so hard, because my first plant was a Peperomia Obtusifolia (Baby Rubber Plant) that I got from a big box store. Took it home, repotted it, and went to bed. Woke up the next morning and the whole thing was rotted from the roots up. Less than 24 hours and I had killed it. My guess is that it was already sick, but I'm not sure. I managed to get a single leaf that I saved to propagate and I'm trying to bring it back to life! Fingers crossed.
Oh sugar, I’ve just got one and I’m watching it like a hawk now 😂
Your care can’t be that bad! Must be the shop
That "she even doesnt have a drainage hole" is the key! I know, all experts on youtube are telling how important drainage holes are, but for me and my 100+ plants no drainage holes in the pots are the key for thriving plants (and i am doing it for over 20 years, same as my granny did for over 60 years).
Having them is a safe bet for beginners
Great video! Thank you :)
Glad you liked it!
I've had one calathea about 4 years and it's been split three times. It's doing very well. It's on a North window sill and only gets watered from the base. I try and use 'older' water but not always. It sometimes gets watered on the roots. My other calathea, a different one, isn't behaving as good.
What types are they?
Love Rhipsalis a most unusual plant.
Are they fussy?
@@SheffieldMadePlants Not really I have had mine for a couple of months. I water it about once a week. Probably less in the winter. A very cute, unusual plant.
I love a variegated plant over a solid.
Thanks! Love your sense of humour!! Oh and Paolo Nutini sings the song you mentioned!! Pencil full of lead! Had a couple of his cds!
Rock on!
Love them, love them!
Teeheehee, tradescantia is the reason why I stumbled upon this channel for the first time. 😅
Love this video! I especially love that you included plants that can take a lot of watering, as for most UA-camrs only plants that can dry out for long periods of time are easy. As a beginner I always overwatered the plant. To this day my arch enemy is the ZZ plant.
By the way, I have a lot of calatheas, had them for 1,5 years and most are so pretty and loving life. The only one that gives me grief is the one I didn't buy as a baby. As a person that is prone to overwatering, I find them to be very easy going plants. And I don't live in a jungle, I live in Germany. 😂
I don't know if it would help, but you are probably overwatering your ZZ plant. I have mine in a room that gets north and west light and I water it every 3 or 4 weeks. The plant is extremely drought tolerant. If you notice things that look like small baby potatoes, those are rhizomes. The rhizomes store water for dry periods. Hope that helps. The water wet/dry meter that he has on his amazon list the description is really good and quite reasonable priced.
@@lawra89 thank you! I know what I'm doing wrong, but I can't help it. I keep killing it - either it gets too dry or too wet or too much space or too little space. I think the root of the problem is that I love fussing over plants and the ZZ plant does not want that. Hence my calatheas love me and succulents and ZZ plants hate me.
@@silviap4478 Give yourself a break.. you have to kill multiple plants before you start figuring it out. 😅 Also make sure that you are watering plants evenly. If you love fussing over plants, you should try a nerve plant, aka drama queen. She loves being watered. I let mine dry to the point that they are completely drooped over looking like they don't have a chance to be saved, water them, and they're back to looking healthy in less than 4 hours. 😂 you can find time lapses videos of them on youtube.
Very true. Buying young is the key 👍
I also killed a ZZ plant. I felt betrayed.
I'll bet the clerks were laughing their asses off when I walked out of Metropolitan Plant Exchange with two calatheas. I rue the day. One was a Calathea Elgergrass. I totally killed it.
Oh no! 😥
Well, the Orbifolia seems to be coming back. It's got a new leaf coming up. @@SheffieldMadePlants
You should grow this plant called a frizzle sizzle, it has cool curly leaves and yellow flowers
I’ll look it up
Love your commentary and your title sounds like a challenge to me 😂😂
Blessings 💜💚🇺🇸
Up those numbers!
I feel like Aglaonemas are very adaptable and grow great for me in rather low light conditions and have amazing colors and patterns. It's kind of an underrated plant, honestly.
I totally agree!
thank you is good to know
I enjoyed the video. I like the way you ‘sneaked’ in the promotions 👍always enjoy the laughs 😂
Thank you 😊
I love peperomias. I just bought the variegated one and I don't remember where I put it.😅😅😅. I have to go look for it. Your info is fun and inspirational.
Thank you 😊
I laugh so much with your funny comments. Love your videos
I appreciate that!
I "found" a tradascantia one day I brought it home.
It didn't do too well and I tried a tip I got: pot it into the soil from a fresh mole heap. And now there is minimumtwo in e every room and they are thriving
Where to find a mole heap
@@SheffieldMadePlants anywhere in parks, meadows and so on. I take it after rains or frosts. When the moles dog their burrows new. That soil seems to have a good amount of microbacteria and mycelium in it.
With tissue culture, variegated plants should be a bit cheaper in the near future anyway. Look what it's done to the price of Monstera Thai Constellation and Philodendron Spiritus Sancti :)
good times
Great point!
I don't know why, but spider plants seem to thrive under my care, no matter. The one I have now, is on top of a 6' tall bookshelf. I just counted, and it has 12 'babies', it's been flowering for a year now. I'm ready to transplant, and a big plant give-a-away. Well, one to my room mate, and a few other friends. I'll put the others on the front lawn with a sign "free", and they will make a few folks in my neighbourhood happy. :)
Another great vid, thanks Sheffield! x from Canada
Wow 12 babies! Are you going to leave them to grow? Looks cool like that i think
@@SheffieldMadePlants I do love it, but it's now reached the floor, so I'm thinking of rotting some of the babies into new pots, and gifting. :)
OOPS,. haha, "rooting", not rotting.
I'm about 95% sure your hoya Lisa is actually a krimson princess. The Lisa typically doesn't have any true cream or white coloring in its variegation. Its leaves are also a bit more rounded than the oblong princess.
Could be 🤷🏻♂️
Hello Mr. Sheffield, you have a great list. I have to Peperomia Obtusafolia, the Hoya Lisa and the few Chinese Evergreen and I agree with you, they are wonderfully easy houseplants, and I don't plan on ever getting rid of mine!! I do think your Lisa is going to strangle your pothos, but I hope she won't🥰.
I’ll keep my eye on it!
I have murdered an obtusifolia, three aglaonema, have love/hate relationship with my tradescantia, had a rufibarba that was doing so well until it decided to unalive itself, and forgot an oxalis outside. But my monstera, jades, 4 different ficus are thriving. My space works well for hoya, philodendron, dracena and scindapsus (I would definitely add the exotica to the list of plants that thrive on neglect) 😅
What was you weapon of choice? 😅
@@SheffieldMadePlants It does sound bad, 😆. But I have done that over a few years and currently have around a hundredish very happy plants that have really enjoyed September. We have had a very rainy summer here on the east coast of Canada and finally have had a few days of sunshine 🌞
My ogre's ear (gollum) jade is over 20 years old and almost 5 feet tall now. I've taken dozens of cuttings from it. They tell you when you need to water them and are so forgiving even if you mistakenly leave cuttings on a table for 3 months. 😅
Absolutely 💯
This production value.. muah! 🎉
Thank you!!
I've just bought a Calathea Orbifolia. I just don't like the look of the Elgergrass. It's a baby, so I'm hoping it'll do better than a mature plant, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
🤞
Calathea setosa varieties are easy. Mine tripled in 1 year. Western window 3 feet from window
when I was 9 I got a dracaena deremensis to do a science project for school on; the plant survived the experiment and i still have it almost 20 years later, which i think earns it the distinction of "impossible to kill"
Great stuff 👍
Peperomia are annoying, I only like the string of turtles 🐢 I do love my pink aglaonema. Only tradescantia i like is the oyster plant ☘️ My hoya Lisa is doing amazing and gave me 8 new leaves this month under a strong grow light 😍 I switched half of my calathea over to water and if they do well i am going to switch the rest, I have 2 orbifolia, 2 beauty star, rattlesnake, Rosy, zebrina and jungle velvet. I love them too much to give up lol i just bring more home 😂 Always love your videos, hope you've had a great week so far ☘️🍀🌵🥑
How is your Calathea Zebrina? Have you tried the Pep Obtusifolia?
Another great video, you always look as if you're having fun too.
~ I've expressed my love of Aglaeonemas many a time; they are all lovely and my favourite plants by far.
~ I'm also a huge fan of any pothos (they know how to live) and they're my fast-growing trailing plant of choice. I'm pretty sure you can't kill these bad boys either.
~ I've always had success with Tradescantia Nanouks. They're far sturdier than the flimsy Zebrinas and are a stunning colour.
~ My Calathea Rufibarba is also doing great. The underside of the leaves are as soft as velvet, a truly gorgeous plant.
~ Oxalis Tiangularis - nope, can't be bothered.
~ I'm not keen on Hoyas (or Begonias tbh but I do have one of those red Rex ones you also have and it's doing okay so far) so I'll leave that one.
Thanks! Begonia red flame is a winner imo. Nanouks always end up leggy and brown for me
Wow the second one look like dumb cane 🌱
You actually made me laugh 😆 this time
😁
If I don't remember wrong you have a giaaant areca palm or some sort of palm. I'm in process of growing mine to be bigger and i would love to see a video about them. I'm always so confused is there too many plants in one pot, since they always have like 15 or 20 in when you buy them.
That must be another UA-camr. I only have a small parlour palm
To my fellow Dutchies, where can I find the Cyanotis Kewensis in the Netherlands? I only found 1 website that has it, but they're all sold out.
I’m surprised the Zz plant, snake plant and Jade Pothos weren’t added to his list
Mr. Sheffield, I watch you from the U.S., I love your channel, I learn so much. Is there any way you can upload your academy to UA-cam? I can’t get you on the internet. I and my plants thank you.
Thanks! No sorry UA-cam don’t have a course hosting platform
It's the string of spades in this video, string of hearts is smaller in pink tone and the marking is not as clear. Obviously they are from the same family.
Ok I was thinking about Hoya Lisa because it’s flowers smell like chocolate or something… now I’m sure I’ll get one!
👍👍👍
My mom use to get bulbs to plant in her outside garden so they’ll regrow after winter. I’m just realizing why they never grew back 😂
Challenge accepted.
Calathea makoyana is my bulletproof calathea. I'm envious of your calathea rufibarba - I've tried twice and all I get are crispy ends.
Good shout on the mak 👍
I got spider plants that im surprised I haven't killed them by now. My only complaint is that once they start making pups they don't stop. I have three pup lines going on one plant it still wants another one to grow. I'm a bit worried too many pups will kill it.
Hi! San Franciscan here with three calathea which are huge and over 4 years old. Secret? Rotate them, keep them together and keep them moist not soggy
Very good 👍
Might have suggest a future video on the proper use of grow lights? I'm just a beginner when it comes to plants but I have a handful of succulents that need more light but I don't know how close and for how long to put the grow light. I also have a baby monstera and I don't know if too much of the grow light would be bad for it.
👍👍👍
I agree with most of this list. Calatheas I would kinda just avoid 😂 I mean, I have them, but they can't be displayed for long. Rattlesnake and Network are my long lived Calatheas. I have others in semi hydro and in a tent. Aglaonema are a definite YES! Especially the greener ones, but hands down easiest on the list. Hoyas just do their thing. Give it bright light and throw water on it sometimes and that's it. Peperomia obtusifolia are tricky to me. They will drop leaves when overwatered or underwatered. They will go limp and get misshapen if they are thirsty. It's easy, but not really. I lost my first ones to thrips years ago, but I have replaced them since. I love the dark red edge and golden gate.
You make lots of sense 😁
I currently have four plants in my collection ming aralia, ZZ plant, elephant bush and a kentia palm. I "forget" to water them but daily mist to those that need it.
Nice collection
The Gollum for some reason makes my skin crawl, lol. I just can't look at it without itching. I don't know what it it is.
I own the Siam Aurora which I almost killed until I down sized it's pot and found out Aglaonemas like cactus soil and east facing window seal and now it's giving me amazing pink and green leaves
Great stuff 👍
I’ve bought a Pepperonia twice and it died very early!
WOW pothos, philodendron, sansevieria and dracaena braunii didn't make it on your list?!
Could have. Not an exhaustive list 😁
Have you tried growing them pure in water, I tried this to get rid of those pesty little flies, at the moment I have a yukka plant, rubber plant, autograph plant and a cheese plant growing in water for 6 months and they are doing well 👍🏾
I've dabbled but need to try a bit harder 😅
I have had one planter that is hydro, since the 70s. It's been successful, though I only used it for that star-pointed ivy (we used to call it "Japanese Ivy") and philodendron, knowing they were friendly to hydroponics. It would be interested to try some more, especially using glass containers. Seeing the roots, and rocks you can add, can enhance the beauty of the plant. rocks/water/greens ... what a natural combination! x
@jennifermarlow. Since the 70s that's amazing 💚 I did not add any rocks at all, just maintaining them with bottled water is more than enough for me, the roots are so beautiful, I hope mine last as long as yours has, I am going to try the ivy for sure 😀
@@SheffieldMadePlants Be sure to film it for us when you give it another try 👍🏾
