You two literally bounce off each other and it makes for perfect entertainment from the, ahem, usual planty stuff on YT. And just as I said on Emma's channel "More please!!!"🤣👏🤗
Omg, I love watching you guys together! You're like goofy sisters! This was so fun to watch. I also love watching you talk to other plant people! Just the lovely flow of conversation when you share preferences and techniques. Thanks for making this and I hope you two are having a wonderful visit!!!
So off topic and random😅 but every.single.time i hear Claire’s voice i just think about what a lovely and soothing storyteller voice she has! I would deff love her voice for children’s audio stories or something like that❤
You two are so much fun!! Just an idea…you could maybe poke a plastic bag up the back of your dubia extension…will stop the moss falling out. Also we got x-tennis balls (the REAL ones lol) off eBay-dog proof more than pet ones! Xx
Just want to say I love you guys' duo videos as you just seem to be good friends chatting around a shared passion. Makes it feel like we are one of those friends in the room, listening on 😁. Plus the more cautious and wondering Claire vs. the exuberant "try it" yet chill vibes of Emma is chef's kiss!
I have just bought that exact wire mesh in B&Q. It was like 5m (i think) x like 75cm, 1cm squares, green coated and I think it was about £11. It was in the outdoor gardening area.
I bought my wire from B&Q! The squares are just the perfect size, but they have an even smaller one! I’ve gone into my local branch though, because online can be finicky
Interesting, I don't think there's one perfect moss pole. I started using the wire mesh as I already had some, and its great for holding its shape and holding the moss in. But I feel that for bigger roots I could end up breaking / damaging them trying to get them out of 1cm wire holes when I want to use the moss pole to prop. And for me, I have a small farm which I work on on my own as I'm a single mum (Australia, so it all gets pretty hardcore with heat and snakes etc), so my hands are so damaged by using wire for fencing etc all the time, that I just don't want to handle the stupid stuff inside as well lol! So I really like a 2cm soft plastic mesh made for gardens, I'm happier putting a thin pole in there to support it and not have to deal with wire lol. I don't find the moss falls out, when its packed in either, it works really well. And I think it will be much more forgiving and gentle for propagating. I'm way too tired and time poor to spray down the poles before watering too haha, I find that just upending the bottle in the top of the pole and allowing it to drip in by itself hydrates the whole pole beautifully over an hour or 2 without any need for spraying :)
Grest video! Thanks ladies!! Love the joint videos! Plus, I found some pvc coated wire mesh in dark green, 1mx5m and 13mm squares last summer in Homebase! Xx
B&Q definitely have the coated wire in 5m rolls. Spacing is 1.3cm I think. Called Blooma Dark Green PVC-Coated Steel Wire Mesh Fencing. 0.5m and 1m heights. 😊
The information you give u both done useful also humidify good point. Need guide and some test on that as well misting plants and use moss steam as Claire is new build flat and Emma is same style my home terraced type as well unfortunately I can't do your giveaway not got Instagram 😐 but i happy you both help my little tropic jungle in my home my passion 🍀🤠
Hi Claire and Emma I would like to let you both know how much I enjoy your channels I look forward to seeing you I hope you don’t think I am being forward but I have been getting cake collars on a roll from Amazon and they are amazing for moss poles they are transparent and work really well and you they come in various widths thanks for your shows I have learnt so much x
May I ask what kind of moss your using? I was under the impression that everyone used sphagnum moss? Do you think making a hardware cloth cylinder then lining the back with the plastic would work? ❄️💚🙃
I have watched many videos on moss poles but the one thing that I continue to wonder about is the sphagam moss that grows on trees. I live in Florida where the moss is easily available in my backyard and just about everywhere. Can I use this vs buying it? It seems like a waste of money to buy something that is hanging in my backyard
Hi Claire found you on Monday, subscribed and have been binge watching. The moss you are using from B&Q I bought two bags last year and wasn't sure it was ok to use for indoor plants. Seeing you using it has given me confidence. Goodbye expensive dry moss and hello to B&Q and Homebase. 💛🌵Thank you. ps Thought Emma's accent was a mixture of British, Aussie, American or summit. Get the coated mess from B&Q 1.2cm, product code 3663602731283, (L) 5m (H) 0.5m, price £10.30. Last year was £11.96 not including posting. Hope this is helpful.
Another awesome video & such a fantastic giveaway. I don't have any planty friends but I entered anyways as I love plants ☺️. Also wanted to add I made your hanging baskets in your home made pots I love them. Mine is not as good as yours. But I can see improvement on each attempt 🤣
I have a question how do you water your hanging plants with out water going all over your floor? It must be a pain to have to take them all down to water them.😊
Hey guys, enjoying watching the both of you again as always. My question is to whoever owns the hole punch, where can I get one of those? It takes me so long to make a pole because I have to stab the holes in with a pair of scissors, twisting them around and around until the hole is big enough. That hole punch would make the job so much easier
This is so unrelated to the video, but I'm stressing!! I've had a senecio cepholorus(?) from ikea for over a year.... Was doing well... Tied up the "branches" to make it it less wide... Anyway... They flowered in late September /early october... But last 2 months... Leaves have drooped, some have come away..... I've used a moisture meter for MONTHS (thank you for the tip)... But all of sudden, soil is constantly moist now (been bottom watering since summer)..... ANYWAY.... healthly stalks but barely any leaves left...repot, propogate?? HELP!!! X
I know i need to take it out of its pot to check roots... Also little fungus gnats have started to swarm.... Chopped the top of one stalk that was mushy.... It's currently in isolation with a bag over it's head!! Just don't wanna lose the whole plant.... I'm new to this whole thing!! 🙄🙄😭😭
The mosspole not only functions as a climbing aid, but also as an extension of the pot. Roots grow from every leaf node into the moss. The plant can develop a much larger root system, resulting in better growth and larger leaves.🌱
Love these girls! But it is very hard for my brain to get past the Hilaria Baldwin-esque accent slips. I feel like it was less pronounced in this video, happily. And I’ve lived in England so I understand a slight accent change 😂 To an extent, it’s just going to happen ❤
You should check out (assuming you don't know about it) Sydney Plant Guy UA-cam's channel. He exclusively grows climbers on moss pole and it works very well for him. I hope it helps you🙂🙂
We also filmed a repot + chat over on Emma's channel: ua-cam.com/video/gNA-PZrHp5U/v-deo.html 💚
You two literally bounce off each other and it makes for perfect entertainment from the, ahem, usual planty stuff on YT. And just as I said on Emma's channel "More please!!!"🤣👏🤗
The thing I love about this video is that it radiates so much of good and happy vibes.
Buying craft supplies and using them are 2 different hobbies. 🙃 Great video. I enjoyed watching you 2 together!!
I just received most of what I need to start creating moss poles. Excited for them! New (ish) plant mom and this will be my first so wish me luck!
I love you two together - that intro made my day so much better 😊
You two are so funny together, I’ve just watched this whilst doing some plants jobs and it felt like having planty friends in my living room with me
Omg, I love watching you guys together! You're like goofy sisters! This was so fun to watch. I also love watching you talk to other plant people! Just the lovely flow of conversation when you share preferences and techniques. Thanks for making this and I hope you two are having a wonderful visit!!!
I had so much fun extending these poles with you 🥰👯♀️
So off topic and random😅 but every.single.time i hear Claire’s voice i just think about what a lovely and soothing storyteller voice she has! I would deff love her voice for children’s audio stories or something like that❤
You two are so much fun! I'm almost ready to try a few of my plants on moss poles. I'll be scouring all the videos...
You two are so much fun!! Just an idea…you could maybe poke a plastic bag up the back of your dubia extension…will stop the moss falling out. Also we got x-tennis balls (the REAL ones lol) off eBay-dog proof more than pet ones! Xx
You two are my favorites! I'm watching Joli waiting for Emma to get off her couch. LOL
Just want to say I love you guys' duo videos as you just seem to be good friends chatting around a shared passion. Makes it feel like we are one of those friends in the room, listening on 😁.

Love it when you two do a video together.

What you need to search for is called fencer wire. It’s Teflon coated wire fencing.
Amazon... vinyl coated fence, hardware cloth, snake fencing... many names, but it's on Amazon, other hardware stores.
Love the energy when you two collaborate.

This was such a brilliant helpful video. Thank you both. Love the D shape moss pole idea 🪴❤️
Yes you both so good talk about how doing plants love you both on live feed 🍀🤠
The information you give u both done useful also humidify good point.

Hi Claire and Emma I would like to let you both know how much I enjoy your channels I look forward to seeing you I hope you don’t think I am being forward but I have been getting cake collars on a roll from Amazon and they are amazing for moss poles they are transparent and work really well and you they come in various widths thanks for your shows I have learnt so much x
I was wondering if the cake collars would be thick enough. Thanks for posting!
Yes they are they are perfect I have been using them for 6 months x
The coated wire you speak of is on Amazon. I don't know if UK Amazon is different though.
Okay Emma, come to Canada and help me out with my moss poles 🤣🤣 You sure know what you’re doing 👀👌
I wish I could! I love making moss poles!
Hi Claire, what was the name of the channel that shows moss poles - you and Emma were talking about?
May I ask what kind of moss your using? I was under the impression that everyone used sphagnum moss? Do you think making a hardware cloth cylinder then lining the back with the plastic would work? ❄️💚🙃
Do you have a video using the cup to water the moss pole?🪴
I have watched many videos on moss poles but the one thing that I continue to wonder about is the sphagam moss that grows on trees. I live in Florida where the moss is easily available in my backyard and just about everywhere. Can I use this vs buying it? It seems like a waste of money to buy something that is hanging in my backyard
I absolutely LOVE an Aussie accent!
Totally enjoyed your video!!! 🙋🏼♀️🪴
Great duo you two❤️❤️

For the wire mesh I get mine at a farm store. I'm in the us but i dont see why it wouldnt be in a farm store over there.
What is that clear plastic called? Where do you find it?
I have a question how do you water your hanging plants with out water going all over your floor? It must be a pain to have to take them all down to water them.😊
Hey guys, enjoying watching the both of you again as always. My question is to whoever owns the hole punch, where can I get one of those? It takes me so long to make a pole because I have to stab the holes in with a pair of scissors, twisting them around and around until the hole is big enough. That hole punch would make the job so much easier
I use a regular paper punch for this. Punches 2 holes at once.😄😄😄
I got the hole punch of amazon. if you DM me over on Instagram, I can try to find the link for you 😉
Can you tell me exactly what the plastic is that the other version of the moss pole is please
Won’t that wire mess rust out eventually especially if water is being added to it?
HAH accent is so mixed up:D so cute. Sounds partial Brit/mixed soft US. Adorable!
You know what I want? I want the 1cm mesh,, clear lol
I use that coated chickenwire for my mosspoles. I like it, but the plastic stinks a very long time....

Loving your work btw!! 👍😂❤️
Where did you get your wire mesh from?
i love that intro haha!
Appreciate all the tips ❤❤
So question if plants do well such as philodendron or raphy etc do well on plank why do they need a moist moss pole thanks
The mosspole not only functions as a climbing aid, but also as an extension of the pot. Roots grow from every leaf node into the moss. The plant can develop a much larger root system, resulting in better growth and larger leaves.🌱

How do you extend the d shaped moss poles?
