What a great idea letting plants be dormant under the sink! I usually throw them out when they go dormant for lack of cool and dark spaces in my 1 bedroom apartment. Thanks Jeff!
Love the new house plants. The lemon cypress look good with foam like snow, great for the holidays.
Thank you!
Thank you Jeff. Be safe, stay healthy and we’ll see you next time . ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Thank you Judy! Hope you are warm and safe up there! Been hearing the weather up north has been blustery!
Homalomena do well for me, but they are _thirsty_ girls. I pot them up in a mix of coconut husk chips, perlite and charcoal and they love it. I keep them in a self watering pot and I try not to let that reservoir ever go dry. (The Borneo Silver, especially, gets angry if there isn't water all the time, the leaves ruffle). I really want a pink diamond but I refuse to pay $150 for a plant.
I'm now waiting to see if you bought Michael's out of glitter and holiday accessories for spray foam projects.
Oh yeah, self watering is a must! I've seen that pink diamond, definitely beautiful but the cost is just horrid. 😆 haven't bought out the glitter from Michele's, but Amazon is a few pounds shorter.
The lemon Cyprus REALLY look good in those new pots ! I like them !!! ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Me too! Even if one of them is a lil wonky 😆
@@judymckerrow6720 I'm going to try raising one of those inside too, will see how it goes.
I’m hoping that I can get to the garden center before hubby comes home. He will never noticed if I happen to find a new plant 🤫❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
gotta sneak em in and distribute them into the collection. 😆 🤣
The snow on top of the soil looks cute I’ve put poly fill on the top of my containers before when I wanted to decorate them for Christmas. ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
That's a great idea!
I love lemon cypress trees. One of my fave plants to topiary.
The topiary forms are so pretty!
Hi Jeff! I used spray foam to make a full back drop wall inside my exoterra turned terrarium, I set small pots into the foam for plants and covered the wet foam in peat moss and tree fern. It looks like a beautiful rainforest 😊🌿
Now I want to go plant shopping! You have a great eye for design. I'd love to have a window like that! ❤
Thanks for catching us up with your chores!
Homalomena do much better in wicking pots with plenty of vermiculite in the soil. You purchased the Selby variety. I like the leaf shape of the Emerald Gem variety.
I might have to stop by Lowe’s and look for the labyrinth pots. Very appealing.
😺✌️
My issue has always been just keeping the leaves looking nice. The heater really dries the air out. The pond helps counter that, maybe it will do better with the new setup.... and a self watering pot. 😆
No judgement here please : I’ve been cleaning up my laundry room, it had piles of clothes in it, and I mean piles, so I’ve been washing it all and now I finally have room for my excess houseplants. 🤗 I’ve gotten everything set up and now have a very nice home for them and I can finally put up my Christmas tree because now I have room for it 🤗. I’m going to be putting a humidifier in there to help with the lack of humidity in our home and it’s far enough from the wood stove so it won’t run constantly. I am sooooo proud of myself for finally getting that room taken care of because it turned into a catch all 😱. I live in an old house and if people know anything about old houses they have no closet space, didn’t need closet space back then ,so it’s very hard to find a place to store things. Basement is not an option because it’s a wet basement which Michigan old homes are notoriously famous for.🥺 I think the back porch is going to be my savior if I organize everything okay. Because I’m at an age where who knows if I’ll be around tomorrow having things sorted out will help my children when going through the stuff they may want ! 🤗❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃 I know TMI 🤗 ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
What a huge accomplishment! No judgemental here, ive had those massive laundry piles happen before too. The laundry mountain ranges. 😆
That's going to be such a nice thing to have that space to use!
I am in apt with a severe lack of storage and cupboard space too, its terrible. I'm super great at problem solving with space and organizing but that means little in here lol. Geof and other "plant" you tubers contributed to my "plantiness" turning full out jungle and therefore with no room for the "tree" it then gave the excuse for the real another plant...Norfolk pine Christmas tree :) I'm happy as long as I can keep it alive this time!
Oh great. Now he's given me the idea to buy another plant if I like the pot. I've never known anybody to buy the pot if you like it with the plant in it, unless you went to get that plant and it also is in the pot you like. Hahaha. I'm in trouble now.
I also got a few of those grinch trees at Lowe’s for 50%off. I did same thing and they looked great. Can’t believe they did that to those trees can’t believe who would buy them
Right? Just buy a fake plant if that's what you're wanting. Why buy a plant that can't and won't grow?
@ I was going to try and plant them in some planters and see how they would do did not want them to get too big
Our christmas tree this year is norolk pine, i picked up a christmas cactus (i have thanksgiving) and today i did a poinsetta for the first time ever!
I love Norfolk Pine trees for Christmas!
Oregon coast, stormy over night....wind/ rain but was gone by morning... calm, blue holes, grey sky 50° @ 4 P.M. I Love your foam snow ideas....for outside.....I guess you could cover your pot with plastic wrap or alum. foil..and then coat the whole thing with foam.... so you could easy clean foam off pot in spring....but you could coat an entire pot for winter insulation..outside....if you wanted or needed to...Thanks Jeff...love your videos...❤
I think the pot looks like a holiday pot or something you could use all winter long, it’s pretty ! ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Right? I really like winter themed decor that I can leave up after christmas.
I always seem to find those lime guys at Home Depot of all places lol. Fun plantie project! ❄❄❄⛄⛄⛄⛄⛄❄❄❄
I checked them out last weekend and didn't see any. I may have waited to long bc i feel like they of all places usually have them.
I’ve got the wood stove going with a huge pan of water on top and it’s only 16% humidity in here 🥺my plants dry out SO fast ! ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Omg! 16%!? Id crack and crumble to pieces! 😆 🤣 anything below like 60%and im having to apply moisturizer and lip hydration constantly!
The alpinia is a "red reuben" according to Living Trends website.
Yup! Lovely!
I enjoyed watching you make those snow rings for the pots. Gave me some other ideas I have using spray foam. Would like to see you do any other projects with the spray foam
Love the ginger❤
It's so pretty!
Yep, makes me want to make a fluffer nutter sandwich!
😅😆
@@TropicalPlantParty 😆
How about using poly fill for the snow ? ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Great suggestion!
The pots might be too big to plant in but how about using them as a cover pot ? ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Great idea!
Your little village looks adorable. My fav was the one with the train going around. Where is it from? And the trees behind you added fitted like hand and glove!🌲🌲🌲
Thank you! I just got the train one! It's made by a christmas company called, "moments in time." I had been watching it for awhile on Amazon and finally bought it on cyber Monday when it went on sale.
Hi Jeff 👋 😊 I love those hanging pots 😁 I had one of those Shocking Pink Cycleman this last spring. (Outside) I knew nothing about them, but, it bloomed til late summer here in zone 9b Texas Gulf Coast. Then it died. (Of course in a shady area) I am hoping to get me 2 Lemon Cypress come springtime. I do love all the pots. That turned out sooo cute with the foam. 😊 Thank you for sharing with us. Have a great weekend, take good care of yourself and we'll see you Wednesday. 😊
Will we be able to see all of your holiday decorations this year? ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Absolutely!
Did I miss WHY lemon cypress suck as a houseplant because I would like to TRY to grow one as a houseplant ? ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
They just prefer to be outside. Kind of like the juniper bonsai that are sold all over the place, having outdoor airflow and some seasonal chill helps them along. They can be grown just fine in a very bright window for a good amount of time.
Your funny! 😂 I'm scared! 😂😂😂 Great Video. Merry Christmas 🤶
Will unwrapping that Grinch cyprus help it to grow like it was suppose to be. I also get upset about the growers doing this.
Oh for sure. The plants were doomed being wrapped like that. It's one thing for a short period, like just for shipping, but long term they would all die. Actually, I think they all were dead except the one I got.
I love homalomen and cyclamen but neither of them like me very much. 🥺 ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃 The leaves on the cyclamen alone are beautiful! ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃oops you just said the same thing, the foliage is beautiful ! ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
😆 they are both beautiful plants!
They've had the Bamboo gingers down here for a while now. I think those are hardy 7+. Just a bit thin/weedy looking to me.
LOL you and that poor Hamalomena. I've been pronouncing it as "Ham-mAl-O-mean-na" (If that makes any sense LOL)
Cyclamen get me every year. I've tried to "over-summer" them dormant but have never been able to. They always rot or desiccate.
Cypress will look nice with the cyclamen and amaryllis in the window!
Cleanup down here, and composting. Also need to get about 200 daffodil bulbs in the ground around Christmas.
Oh no I didn’t get a chance to finish last Saturdays video 🥺 I’ll have to go back and finish watching it. Hubby is gone until Thursday so I can pretty much do whatever I want to, not that he stops me from doing anything, but sometimes he’s just a little more needy. We’re old farts and he’s older than me so I consider him older than dirt. He’s only 3 years older so I guess we’re both older than dirt 🤭❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
😆 sounds like you've been really productive with the house to yourself!
Have you tried growing cyclamen outdoors? Toronto and southern Ontario are able to grow them (I'm just a smidge too far north).
Hey love, I just found your channelnso forgive me if you have shown this before. What is that tank with water running? I am considering building a greenhouse and would love to see a tour and how your indoor plant area looks
Hey i found a lemon cypress at trader joes but they called it a grump tree ( grinch tree ) with red ribbon and ornament at end idk if you have trader joes out where you are but its in a small pot for xmas and only 10 bux
Oops see you found one lol i better go check mine too see if it needs water lol same ones trader joes was selling
At 5:42 that's not a boobie cactus it's a monadenium very closely related to euphorbias
That’s what I thought. Now I want to go look for one at my Lowe’s. 😺✌️
Yep. You're definitely right!
Honey you could have cut the styrofoam down a bit ? ❄️⛄️🎄💚🙃
Absolutely! I'm going to give it another go now that I have a grasp on the foam and how to work with it. Only reason I didn't cut it down more was because I thought I might end up using these for something else and try over for some more shallow snow caps for these.
I’m not sure about the foam. It takes away from the beauty of everything else. I know winter crafts are fun but there are so many others! This isn’t it. ❤
