Making a nine foot moss pole is definitely something I could see myself doing... and possibly regretting lol 😅 I’ve been really glad I found your channel! ❤
Hi I enjoyed your video, ithink I have one but its a little one would. Love it to grow like that ,but I think growing season is slowing down for plants here in SYRACUSE NY we only have the month of AUGUST for warm weather thanks anna.
I enjoy your videos so much. And my cat has learned that when he hears your voice, he will sit and wait for Luna to make an appearance. It’s very cute. Thanks again for another fun, educational video. Enjoy your weekend 🙂
Another great vid and happy you rescued your Siltepecana. Mine is still tiny and as we are moving towards spring soon (not that we've had a heavy winter by ANY means, averaging 20-23 degrees C)) I'm praying it gets as big as yours. The propagations you placed in the cup of water look so lovely, like a lush green bouquet! Thank you for a relaxing Sun morning watch....always a pleasure watching your content. Keep them coming Melissa 👏🏼💚✨
It’s been so hot lately in the upper 90s with high humidity and all my plants have been out since may and I’ve been needing to repot some but it’s miserable out and I don’t want to bring them inside and make a mess. Been having to water my moss poles every day too because our normal daily summer storms stopped last month for some reason 😭
loved watching it! Thank you for sharing all of it, including you problem-solving on the spot and not having it all planned ahead of time. It truly helps! I did have a question regarding the beneficials actually. Could you share the process of you how they are "activated" as you mentioned in the video? Whatever your knowledge on beneficials and the hanging sachets, that would be awesome. I'd love to know your process :)
I actually filmed a nematode video this weekend! Activated just means you mix them with water then you water them in your plants but I plan on having it go up later this week!
just got a li 3" pot of siltepecana. this video has made me so pumped to watch it grow! However, I do think I prefer the look of the juvenile leaves so my goal is a huge hanging/vining basket
Good morning! I was just wondering Melissa, when you use the super thrive, how much and do you water with it every time? I bought some, but it says Super thrive foliage- pro, then on the right it says, Dino-Gro Foilage - Pro is now Superthrive Foilage Pro, it also says great for hydroponics! I don’t know I just started collecting plants less than a year, but yes just wondering how much and how often, thank you so much!😊
I use superthrive which is a little boost of vitamins. It's the dark bottle with a yellow label. It's completely different than foliage pro which is an actual fertilizer so you'll want to be careful with how much of that you're using. I don't use foliage pro but it should tell you on the back how much to add to your plants ☺️
Thank you! I know haha. I feel like slow release isn't used that much but it worked well for me! I don't see me changing from it anytime soon unless I just want to try a new one out. I'm always curious to try new things!
As I was watching a question re potting your plants came to mined. Most people seem to rehab plants in SM and that's what is in most poles, so why not put the base in SM
I love sphag moss! I have used it for soo long and propagated pretty much everything in it. I branched out and tried stratum last year and absolutely love it! I still use moss and water occasionally but stratum is my go to prop medium now :)

Thank you so much!! It's definitely way too tall 😂 I had high hopes and initially thought it would be cool but really hard to water lol

Wow that is one large plant! That is impressive and beautiful 💚
Thank you!! I looked a lot better before I stuck it outside 🙈 I felt bad I waited so long to take care of it. It'll be fun watching it climb again! ☺️
I hope you enjoyed your latest visit with Jack in the Beanstalk!? Wow, what a tall plant. Amazing work , thanks for sharing.
Wow, such amazing and beautiful plants, Melissa. 🙌
Your videos are so detailed and informative. You are the Best 😊
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!!
Always excited for these 🤍🫶🏻
Thank you for watching and being here ☺️🫶
Although it’s not the El Salvador, the leaves can get almost as big. Thanks for sharing Melissa.
You are so welcome!
It was getting very tall! Hope it takes well now with this boost 👍and it ends up with bigger leaves.
💚🌱🌵☘️💚
I hope so too! It's hanging in there! I think the heat outside really was starting to stress it 😬
I just love watching your videos!!
Thank you so much!! 🥹🤗
Love learning from you. Haven’t had to make a miss pole yet.
Thank you for being here! ☺️🫶

I just chopped mine up yesterday. It's such a fast grower!!! I finally tested proping in perlite cuz there was so many.
Great video as always!!! 💚🪴🌿
Thank you so much! YES! lol I remember mine climbed pretty fast once it started attaching into the moss. Hoping for the best for all your props! 🫶
You made that look easy, I know it wasn't haha 😂 Worth the effort though x

Both are pretty!! I think the leaves with holes are cool though but can't go wrong with trailing or climbing 🥰

Mine was getting toooo long and I just cut it up and currently propagating lol. If I extended it, it would have fallen over
aww you'll have lots of little plants to grow now! ☺️
U only uses osmocote waoo and your plants looks Amazing💚💚💚

Have you ever used Happy Frog?
I haven't but I am experimenting with a new mix that doesn't contain peat moss. I really would love to move away from it :)
My siltepicana is growing the fastest out of all my plants. I mean i only have 42 plants but 😅
Neglect is not letting a plant live in a natural way. I may not be the optimal condition, but in the wild they are not always great either.
