I call you the plant whisperer! I love your style of plant care. You explain everything in detail that even a beginner understands. It all makes perfect sense! I'm ordering the plant poles that you use and getting the same fertilizer too. You are my #1 plant guru that I always go to for information and answers. On top of all these things, you are very entertaining! And the love and care you show your kitty melts my heart. I squeal every time you post a new video! Thank you so much for everything!
That is so nice of you Vanessa :) thank you! Really appreciate it
Very inspiring. You have impressed and taught many people! I really loved the person in Lyon, France, who transformed the staircase into a living wall. I loved that it was getting a bit wild, jungly, you could hardly see the poles..
I coulld tell you were impressed with the person, whose collectioon and style was the closest to yours. He even had a comparable oxalis! Your reaction was so funny!
But rest assured you will always be the best teacher and plant parent. Your sincere wish for people to succeed, and plants to be well cared for comes through in every comment you make.
All plant people have their own charm, even the ones who aren't getting everything perfect. It's incredible how global and huge the plant-obsession has become.
Hehe yes I really enjoyed Greg's collection in france & the way he described them as artworks he paints his hallway with :) and yes, Jason's collection reminded me so much of my own :P Thank you so much :))
Love that you make it a point to just make one large moss pole for your plant. Don’t think about the small stage it may be at now, think about where you WANT it to be and give it what it needs to get there successfully and easily. You don’t want to have to annoy your plant every time it grows taller, all in all you AND your plant will appreciate it very much ❤ another great video!
Thank you:)
Ugh Jan, I LOVE these longform videos. You're such an engaging creator. These longer videos are so much fun to put on in the background while I'm doing my own plant chores. Keep up the great work!!!
Happy planting :) thanks :)
Hi Jan, Bev from Adelaide here. Thanks for including my plants at 6:37 😊 Yes, you’re right. I did repot the El Salvador when I extended the moss pole. The growth has slowed a bit but I assume it may be concentrating on root growth in the bigger pot. Great to see everyone’s plants. Love this idea.
Thanks for submitting Bev :) Happy growing !
The 3D castle pole would be great as just a topper for regular poles. As in, they just fit on the very top and act as a funnel to pour water into the pole, or to hold a bottle for pouring. That way the castle if functional and removable. Could be multiple sized diameters too.
Love that idea 🙌
Or it could go along the back of the pole, in a semicircle, covering the solid sheet backing of the pole. This way the roots wouldn't tangle into the building making propagation difficult, but the intricate building would make the back side of the pole interesting.
I am only 12 years old, and already on a deep dive into the hobby❤
Good on you :) happy growing !
Thank you!
"The plant whisperer", yes great name for you Jan. I'm here in Minnesota, the weather here can be -20f in the winter and 108f in the summer, and backwards to the weather you have. So, I'm collecting ideas and care instructions from you, then I'm going to find the 'right plant' and try doing what you do. One of these days I'll be brave enough to find a plant and start, but, being a senior on a fix income I don't want to kill an expensive plant practicing on it. I have tried growing a pothos on a pole. The leave are bigger and it seems happy so far.
Pothos and monstera are great & inexpensive to start of with :) happy growing :)
Love the stairs growing
awwww man I would've loved to share ! lol I have to keep my eyes on your community tab for the next round 💚
There’ll be more of those :)
Me too, but I don't really know what a community tab is
@@moiraslater8526 its when you go to his profile next to the tabs that say home,video,live/shorts community and playlist
Thanks for including my pothos video. I agree completely. I've turned it around towards the window and the leaves have corrected. My future moss poles are much larger and sustain the moisture much better. Love your videos. Looking forward to continuing my learning and growing more large leaves ❤
Thanks for submitting :) sounds perfect!! :)
I love how Brad was just like "coming through!" Lol 😂
Don’t mind meee :D
Yeah, that was really funny 😂
I die at your reaction to Jason's collection. Hahaha. Hearing you say the F word made my day hahahahaha you're the best! ❤😂
😂 I noticed it too, I had to rewind to make sure of what I heard.
Thanks for including my vid 🙌🏻 and I'm definitely not selling that Brandti. ❤
It’s a stunner !!! Thanks for submitting :)
Your are stunning! Good job Jason! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow mate love the plants❤
It is not often you see Jan shocked but you sure did it! What a collection!
Also hello fellow melbournian! 👋
May I add I'm up for adoption 🙊🤣 ergh I would love to pick your brain about plants verses Melbourne bipolar weather and if we could ever do a clipping trade🥰
That's plant goals ... getting Jan the SPG to curse in admiration. Good job, Jason!
I absolutely love this video concept. I watch a lot of planty people on UA-cam and it’s so cool to see what other viewers are doing with their collections. You should make this a series.
Certainly will :) there’s a part 2 out already as well :) thanks!
Troubleshooting videos? A big Yes!!! Looking forward to part 2.
Thanks :)
Jason from Melbourne wins my vote! JUST WOW!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💚💚
Yes n iam chking the comment section if he comments ❤his collection
He did leave a comment :) Obviously it's not a competition but his plants are closest to my taste level :P
I love it! There are so many people out there growing such amazing collections, each with their own special flavour of care and display. Nice to see a variety of people getting some spotlight on their beautiful plants.
Thanks :)
I love this video format Jan and your feedback. My favorite is the staircase full of of plants. I have no natural light on my staircase, if I did I would want to decorate it like that.
Thanks :)
Hi Jan, I love your channel and have learned so much from your videos. In response to Octavio from L.A., I switched from GT Foliage Focus because it is difficult to get and is really expensive in the US. I'm about a year into my plant journey. I started out using GT Foliage focus but switched to Superthirve Foliage Pro about 6 months ago and my plants are still thriving. There has been no decline in growth at all. Superthirve Foliage Pro is more cost-effective, and it gives me the same results as GT Foliage Focus.
Thanks :)
Loved it! ❤ Lot's of good ideas and great to see such impressive plants thriving in colder climates 🤩 I hope it's rewarding to be getting such positive input from your followers, and to know you're inspiring us all. Looking forward to part 2. 🤗
Thank you so much :)
This is a great video! I enjoyed the mini advice you gave to each photos. You’re really a plant doctor! Very inspiring ❤
Thanks :)
I learned so much from this, and I got inspired to add moss poles to some of my philodendron this weekend. I'm excited! Thanks, Jan, for doing this. You're such a cool plant and kitty parent ❤
this was amazing! can't wait to see part two
Thank you:)
I watched the second part first, but I really loved this! Very awesome seeing what everyone is growing!
This was a great video. The plant parents and the way they grow their plants is a great thing to see. Thank you for sharing and for providing feedback. Can't wait for part 2. ❤
Thank you :)
Great idea to do this video.
Lovely to see everyone’s plants.
I grow cacti but I’m getting the aroid bug I think.
Thank you so much and to the SPG community too 🌿
Thank you :)) happy growing
Very interesting idea for your new video. I like your glasses 🤩
Thank you:)
Love, love, love this video! Wonderful to see how you inspire people all over the world! Can't wait for the next one. Always love seeing Brad too!❤❤
Thank you so much :)
Love this! Sad I missed out but I’ll make a submission anyways for a potential part 3. I think you’ll appreciate my plant collection origin story, a bit of a tearjerker and deep emotional connection for me but I’ll include all that for you to read. Thanks Jan!
Looking forward to it :) Part 3 will definitely eventuate :)
This is so cool, isn't it just wonderful that all these people from around the globe have joined in and shared, your channel is number 1 Jan, you are a caring person and encouraging us your viewers your knowledge helps us be more successful.I must say the French stairway was absolutely beautiful ❤❤
Thank you :) agree, that staircase was a standout :)
Thanks so much for the tips!! I did already buy some better moss poles. And my plants have been sizing up so fast! One that I didn’t show was my Philodendren paraso verde and the leaves are MASSIVE on it!!
Thanks :) Happy growing !
Love this idea Jan!
Thankyou and thanks to everyone who submitted entries.. loved watching and can’t wait for part 2 and other ideas coming soon.
I’ll keep my eye in the community tab 👀
Thank you:)
Hi Jan, love the videos and your feedback on each submission. Would love to be considered when you do this again. Fingers crossed for part 3
Thank you :) keep an eye on the community tab :)
What a fun video! Missed the submissions so will be on lookout for next one. What beautiful plants everyone has. 💚 🌱 😊
Hi Jan, loved this video 💕 You must feel very rewarded for the impact you have had with many planty people 😀🇨🇦 Looking forward to Part 2 👍
Very rewarding indeed :) thank you!
Great idea Jan! It was nice to see the successes of our global plant community 👌🏼 Looking forward to Part 2
Thank you:)
I love everyone who put their plants out there! I like seeing everyone's plants and astetics! The first thing I learned from Jan was chunky avoid mix and then moss piles!
Thanks :)
Fantastic video Jan, and all of those who contributed - thank you! The long form videos are always very engaging, and it helps to have a virtual 'chat' about whats going on with your/our plants when you don't necessarily have a plant buddy to ask questions or get advice from. You've really created a community of fellow plant lovers around the world and it's great to see everyone else's collections to get ideas, see what's working and so on. In the words of Xunami Muse.. Yes ma'am, more please!!
Thank you:)
This was so fun to see everyone's plant collections. I do hope you continue with this as part of a series. I hope to submit a video myself after my plants recover from this Winter's struggle to keep warm. ( Furnace died during unusual freezing weather 🙀) As well, this first peak at submissions gives me a better idea of video style. Short and concise seamed to work best, which i tend to blather on... Thanks for this totally inspiring content Jan!😻
Thank you :) will definitely do more of these so keep an eye out on the community tab :)
Fun video! I like the suggestions and advice alongside your observations and reactions
Thank you:)
Hello Jan, awesome setup, looks beautiful! Thanks for interesting video!
Thanks :)
so many beautiful plants!!
Beautiful and amazing houseplants lovely collection
Your videos have certainly helped me with my plants and got me into aroids, moss poles and chunky mix. I have learned a lot from you and am very grateful. I also enjoy seeing Brad - he is so handsome and makes a great addition to your content 😺. Thank you.
Thank you:)
Your all videos are in my heart, especially long ones! Thank you again!
Since your last video about anthuriums, as you suggested last week occasionally I got small clarinervium. And seeds of anthurium gracile were for free, all of them are doing very well by the by!
Happy growing :) thank you!
Thank you, I really loved this video, super inspiring and looking forward to part 2! ❤
Thank you:)
Loved that video! I agree. It's really interesting to see what other people are doing and growing 🙂 keep up the fab content ❤
Thank you:)
Jan appreciate all you share as I have learned so much about plant care etc even though I have had plants since the 80s. Yay for the internet
Thank you :)
“What the fukk Jason”😂Hahaha
We like Jason :D
Bonjour Jan! Thank you for including my moss poles at 44:00. That was really fun to watch my plants on your video and motivated me! Now I’m trying P. Luxurians and P. sp Colombia on moss pole. I hope they climb well like P. McDowell 🤞
Thanks for your submission :) Luxurians on a Pole would be so nice!! Keep us updated :)
Loved this! So good to see you connect with your audience :)
Thank you :))
Love this video your really inspire me can't wait for part 2 watching from Barbados. 🎉🎉❤❤
Thank you:)
You deffinantly got me started into this hobby I stumbled across your Instagram a few years ago that's where it all started an now I have amazing plants that look amazing growing on moss poles huge leafs like yours 😊
That’s so nice to hear :) thanks & happy growing :)
Ooriya wow, your plants are gorgeous!
Wow, I love those plants all around the world😸 especially the ones in Montreal😻
Great video
Thanks :)
omg please do a marble queen on a pole, I agree totally under rated! I'm actually about to do one myself because I think it will look really good, and I just got one with some good variegation on it.
Happy growing :)
Loved this video and very excited for part 2! I thought that it was only open for people with big impressive plants to submit videos but next time you do something like this I'll definitely submit something too 🤩
Not at all :) all collections are welcome :) (apart from hoyas haha jk)
I love this format! I enjoyed every minute of this video.
Thank you:)
So cool to see everyone's collections and so exciting to see my monstera on your channel 🎉 aha thank you for doing this video, is really awesome (Cat from UK) 🤩🥳
Thanks for submitting your plant :) happy growing :)
Jan, I follow your channel because I always learn something from watching and you have a lighthearted way of communicating that lifts my spirits.
Mississippi - Alabama - Louisiana - Florida are all on the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf Coast) and in the USA is part of the Deep South. The State of Mississippi borders the Mississippi River. The state of Mississippi is made up of many different landscapes including forests, wetlands, barrier islands, prairies, and coastal dunes.
The Mississippi River is the primary river, and second-longest river, of the largest drainage basin in the United States. From its traditional source of Lake Itasca in northern Minnesota, it flows generally south for 2,340 miles (3,766 km) to the Mississippi River Delta in the Gulf of Mexico. With its many tributaries, the Mississippi's watershed drains all or parts of 32 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces between the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains. The river either borders or passes through the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Louisiana.
The climate in the Deep South is humid and hot with abundant rainfall most of the year. The further south in these states you are the more tropical the climate becomes. These states are USDA Zones 8 - 11 and get little snow. When the Deep South has freezing temperatures the roads can become sheets of black ice. These states experience hurricane season.
Great perspective, thanks Jan!
Thanks :)
OMG love those series:D its nice to see whats happening in other house-growing grounds of your viewers :D
Thanks :)
I sooo enjoyed this video, all the plant parents submissions have really blown me away 👏👏👏 It must feel great Jan for inspiring & teaching all these people to produce this quality of work 🙏 Do you ever sleep at night? I don’t know how you manage to do all of this & work as well - Legend!!
I do get my sleep in but yes, it’s a lot at times 🥹 so I appreciate your ongoing support :) thank you!!
SPG had to “feed the cat” after seeing Jason’s plants. SPG stops recording to go outside and scream into the vast universe. SPG returns with a refreshed outlook.
I’m just teasing you, SPG. I watch religiously and am forever thankful for your teachings:)
haha :D thanks :)
Aww. I missed your tab!! I would've loved to share my collection. This is a great idea. I hope you do this again so I can submit my pics. My plant hobby totally leveled up after finding your channel. I would love for you to see some of your influence in my collection. I love seeing other people's collections. It's so much fun!! Great video!
That's great to hear :) I'll certainly ask for submissions again soon for another video :)
Love this video :) Looking forward to part 2
Thank you :)
Just loved it ❤ Thanks 🙏
Thanks :)
I love this idea! I thought about submitting mine but I got a little shy 😆
Me too ☺️
Amazing collections from all over the world featured in this video. Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing them. Shout out to Paka (fellow Kiwi). I love how his printed poles look like a post-apocalyptic city, turned jungle.
Thanks :) haha yes it does !!
Hiya Pearl, can you tell me Paka’s instagram name so I can see his moss poles please. I saw what Jan had shown but it was really quick to get a good look at them, even with rewinds. I did try his UA-cam name but nothing came up and I tried loads of searches on instagram but couldn’t find the right one. Hope you don’t mind me asking, I thought Jan would be too busy to ask. Best wishes to you 😊Phyl in UK. (Sorry about my UA-cam name, it was a joke a few years ago when my son put my voice to music on his iPhone 😂
Such a great idea for a video. I loved seeing everybody's plants. So cool. I'm just surprised no one mentioned mushrooms growing in their moss poles. I have these yellow mushrooms growing vertically in my moss pole and I'm just wondering if I'm the only one. Can't wait for part 2!
Mm I’ve never encountered that. There must have been some spores in the moss you bought. Might also indicate that there is insufficient airflow. In general though, fungi are natural & a big contributor to soil health … just not sure about them in your moss pole 😐
It's a long weekend here in the US. I am going to switch to a chunky aroid mix with my plants (mostly syngoniums) this weekend. Wish me luck! I'm excited to get in on this the next time you do it.
Happy growing :)
Mississippi may not scream tropical, but it is in the southern U.S., so it's mostly warm and definitely humid!
Yes I have since found out :) should be great for tropical plants there :)
@@sydneyplantguy Jan, I love that you take the time to read and reply to comments! Your videos are great and full of so much information. Keep up the good work!!
OMG look at Jason's Plants !!! Look at that Orbi ...WOW🎉
Loved it. Very intelligent young man and well spoken.
Thank you so much :)
I look forward to every single video you make ! I loved this video and so happy you have too many submissions to fit into one . Now I have more great content to look forward to!
Hehe thank you:)!
in Germany we call the see through pots, Orchid Pots
Great Video! I just put together my very first legit moss pole yesterday. have a really wonky monstera that I'm trying to retrain. than you for all the knowledge you share.
Thanks :) happy growing :)
DANGIT!!!! I missed your deadline! I was looking forward to sending in my video to you, I had colored lighting picked out on my aquarium light, the right time of day to film, and all my favorite plants in their prime positions 😅 but vehicle failures and my general bad luck threw a monkey wrench in my plans a usual
There’ll be more Opportunities in the future :)
Another comment/warning about plugged in lights near bathtubs. I have the same desire about experiencing my jungle near the tub. But make sure any grow lights are secured and/ or far away from chance falling into filled tub. Very dangerous.
Also, you really got into your stride after the first few minutes. You’re really good at this.
Hehe thank you :)
Love these videos! Keep them coming! From Ontario, Canada
Thanks :)
Thanks to everyone who shared! Would love a part 2, Jan 🌿
Thanks :)
Love this !!💖
Thanks :)
OMG! My heart stopped for a second when you pronounced Octavio, my name's Octavia LOL 😂
It's a pretty rare name and I know I haven't sent you any photo, because I've only put my plants on poles a couple of weeks ago. There was a sort of conflict in my brain for a second 😂😂😂
OMG, you cursed!!!🤣 WTF, Jason. I like Jason's collection too.
Haha I can have a filthy mouth :P
Did anyone else pause the video and run around watering their poles? 😂 great video!
Love that!! :) priorities!
Love these constructive feedback from you sensei!
Yay :) thanks !
I saw your channel and visited it from time to time. My subscibtion is, to be honest, because you are german, but also i really enjoy watching you and your personality
hehe thanks :)
I have enjoyed watching the whole video, from beginning to end, thanks for dedicating your time to provide interesting videos. Honestly the only plant I was growing to copy from you is the Oxalis triangularis,.I love how it's so lush and it gives never ending purple leaves but mine is not there yet.
One of my all time faves :) thank you!
Dang I missed it. Love this idea. I'll definitely keep an eye out for the next one.
Thanks :) they will be more :)
I just entered because the video thumbnail, so hilarious haha
1:04:09 I can recommend TPS Nutrients for easily to acquire fertilizer in the US. They have their houseplant fertilizer (identical to their monstera fertilizer) that can take the place of a normal setup, or they have either nutrient solution ingredients, or TPS One for semi-hydro setups. I really appreciate that they come in opaque containers, as well, since I don't have a dark place to store them to prevent algae growth.
Thanks for sharing :)
Love how you have done this, what a great idea, I would love to give you a look at my shade house, but not sure how to go about it, I don't have intsagram or tictok, maybe when you are ready to do another one you could give us computer dumbies a video on how to send it to you 😆😊looking forward to part 2
All submissions just came via email :) i’ll post instructions on my community tab :)
And thank you 😊
Love that type of video 🎉
Thank you:)
"that's a two week GLOW UP!" LMFAO
Love love the interaction
Thanks :)
I love your videos so much. I'm still experimenting and learning buuuut I have double high ceilings in my living room and I have long term goals to get some +2m moss poles in there at some point. Fingers crossed.
Good news: the experimenting & learning will never end :) which makes this hobby so interesting :)
Hi Jan, I am watching this video in parts, just saw the huge plant cabinet at 34:30.. If you're looking for inspiration for something more like what you describe, have you seen the Ill Exotics shop in America? I believe they have closed down, but Summer Rayne Oakes went there more than once, they made something with sliding doors normally used in living rooms.. You can see it in her tour videos :)
Thank you :) i’ll check it out :)
So, plant wise, everything is bigger and better in Australia!!!! Just wow!!!! Just curious Jan, have you ever considered using large mirrors in the courtyard to redirect the light back into the the house? Just wondering if that might do anything for you.
Keep in mind Australia is a very large place with climates ranging from snowy mountains to deserts ;) when growing insite we’re all facing similar issues, australia or not ;) the mirrors would just be a hazard with the strong sun causing potential fires but light exposure should improve as the sun gets lower in autumn :)
@@sydneyplantguy, I get that. I live in Washington state and everyone thinks I live with constant rain and clouds. Lol, I live in the desert region of Washington, so not great for growing tropical plants. It does make life with plants interesting though;) I'm looking forward to part two!!
