Love coming to your channel knowing I’ll see some plants I’ve never heard of. So sick of everyone showing the same pink Princess in every video. Love how unique your collection is.
I have two dischidia ovatas. They are both very full and the largest one has 3+ foot vines. I have left them in the tiny 3 inch grow pots they came in, and are growing 3 and 5 feet away from a southern window. The pots seem like they would be way too small for so many long vines (filled with leaves), but they are very happy. I treat them like my hoyas and only water after they are completely dry. They also have a humidifier nearby. Definitely in my top 5 favorite plants I grow!
Great in terms of your single plant, yes. Terrible in terms of how important bogs, where it grows, are for a plethora of rare species and storing carbon =)
I have a variegated million hearts Dischidia. Man, I love that plant. So stinkin cute and the tiny flowers 😍. Thanks for this video. Had no idea they grow well mounted.
Hi Nick, I am a follower & Friend from Queensland Australia 😊 I luv watching your videos as they have taught me alot about my plants. Dischidia are Epiphytic by nature so growing on the wood plaques with moss is great. If you want to grow any in medium I have found Coco coir or coconut chunks are a great medium as it holds enough moisture and has enough air flow. They also like humidity I have found. If your in to the more interesting looking Dischidia I would recommend Dischidia Nummularia Dragon Jade or Bubbles as its also known as 😊
canadian here! and i work in a plant store. i wanted to mention it depends what end of Canada your living in as to where plants are grown. generally most houseplants that take a few years are not grown in Canada, it costs too much to heat the greenhouses over many winters (think Ficus Lyrata or slow growing Sanseveria). so most house plants we get at our store are grown in Florida and sometimes Costa Rica, then come in through the port of Montreal or more infrequently in through Toronto. Small succulents and cacti are grown in Canada, typically in Southern Ontario or around Montreal. Out west (BC being an exception) from what I hear is a houseplant desert with 'common' house plants still being rare out there. We have students sometimes come in and load up before heading out west, either for themselves or to sell and make a pretty penny.
I lived in SW Ontario for 7 years and i just moved north and I am definitely finding it harder to find houseplants even here as opposed to London area (in ON).
I think i found my favourite plant family. dischidia seem so unique, fun and pretty! thank you for these videos ill be sure to add one of these species to my plant collection. Their so pretty looking!
Hi it's good timing watching you discuss about dischidia coz I brought home some yesterday when I went home in my birth town. I found it growing on fruit trees. Thank you very much.
Hey Nick! Ty, I'm recently( due to you😊) very enamored with Dishidia and trust my ability and environment now to start acquiring them in Spring! I don't generally like wall mounted plants, but yours are always on beautiful Bark..... so, TY again my plant brother. Stay well, and Happy Holiday season.
I really love the way your dischidias are planted and displayed...on the plaques! The moss just adds a lovely natural look, and is good for holding moisture and not be too wet. Your plants are beautiful and unique. I have a large hanging dischidia (common thousand hearts) I've had a few years. It does get very tiny white flowers at times. I've noticed that, underneath the plant...it's getting leaf drop, but the top looks good and is getting growth. I think I need to hold back on the water..especially now in winter. It's one of my favorite plants.
My dischidia ovata is the fastest growing plant I own. It doesn't care that it's winter in New England. I was so surprised. I have it at a south east window and use a cheap miracle grow orchid spray fertilizer. It's my favorite plant currently.
You are so sympathetic! I love to see your fascination and admiration for these plants you are caring for and giving some simple advices. Compared to so many other plant posting people, who seem to me as simple collectors and trend followers that just want to show their pride for their mostly expensive or rare plants. Thank you 🙏
I was hoping you'd cover it in your video, but what do you do once a plant outgrows the plaque? Do you unwrap the wire and transfer the plant to a bigger plaque? Do you just cut off the parts that dangle freely and put them on a separate plaque? What about the original plant then? Eventually the roots will get too long and the older leaves will die, right? So then how do you go about replanting it?
I just got my first dischidia a week ago. Dischidia major and it is is awesome!! I love how there are two different types of leaves and how spongy and unique it is. First plant I've ever had in moss and am quite intimidated at letting the moss dry out. I was planning on putting it in soil but I think I'll leave it now. It's so gorgeous on it's trellis! Love your channel btw and how it's always new and different from everyone else's!
Love your informational videos!! I have a Dischidia Ovata that also has really long tendrils. It's recently starting to grow leaves on them. I grow mine with higher humidity in the bathroom and high LE grow lights. I think key is to make sure to only water when the leaves feel less firm. They don't like being watered too often. Can't wait to see more of your videos like these!
I grow my Dischidia ovata, about 1 m from a south facing window. It has long vines and even bloomed this fall! I've had it for three years now and repotted it once. I water it the same as with my hoyas, maybe every three weeks but it has succulent leaves and delicat roots so I'm very careful - I let the water rinse thrue the pot. Someone said they have it near a humidifier, I don't have a humidifier and it seem to love life - my climate is about 40-55% humid.
Hi Nick, I love your channel! I have to share this as I am still laughing my head off! am French speaking and your videos are always translated with French subtitles (part of my settings I guess) and although I’m not paying to much attention to the texts, this particular video translation caught my eye…. 😂😂😅😅…. These beautiful plants have a name « Dishidia » that resemble to another one…. Yep, you guessed it right! So the automatic translation picked up this-not-so-accurate-word to identify this plant. I never thought there were sooooooo many variation of this « word » in French…. It is hilarious!🤣😂😅
I remember watching this video when it came out and thinking quite literally 'ew' but now being able to come back and wanting them all! Its like ive caught the bug!
Hi Nick! Just enjoy your videos, you're so sweet to share plant information with us, congratulations on 100k subs, have a Merry Christmas, hugs from Orange County, Ca 😃🎅🎄⛄❄❤❤
My new wish list plant...dischidia are so tiny and cute...I’m over big plants and so enjoying new small ones. Hopefully I can find one and try attaching it to a plaque! Thanks, and congrats on your award! 💕🇨🇦
Dischidia imbricata looks so cool. I have a Dischidia nummularia on top of my kitchen cupboard in a pot, with its leaves trailing down. It's a really dark corner and I always forget to water it, but it's green and happy.
Super informative. I clicked because I just got a strand of the Million Hearts Dischidia and don’t know what to do with it. What a cool idea to wall mount it. Thanks for sharing!!!
I imported a variety from The Netherlands a few years ago that is one of the ant plants that grow these big modified leaves that ants live in. It has grown so much and i love it so so much. It was labeled just as a Thailand species Dischidia. I now have several different types of Dischidia with a few mounted as well. I have some imbricata i just mounted on a large piece of raw cork bark marketed for reptile enclosures. I have a few growing on the cactus skeleton that i was able to stuff sphagnum Moss inside. I have the green form of the nummularia if you’re interested in a trade once spring comes. I bought two 2 inch pots from joshs frogs a few years ago and i have tons now. I am growing some in a hanging basket that cascades over my kitchen sink. I have to flop the vine to the opposite side of the pot when they start nearly touching my sink but also cut a bunch and have some growing as a creeping style inside a terrarium, some in sphagnum in a vase, some on that cactus skeleton wood. I love them. I have a few more types and scoop any type up when i see them. Since they are relatives of Hoya and Hoya are so hot, they are becoming an it plant now as well.
I had never heard of them before but coincidentally just got one today after stumbling over one (and there was only one) in my go-to plant store. exciteed!
I have a large 8 inch pot of million hearts hanging in a west facing obstructed window and it grows like crazy. The flowers, while insignificant, actually have a very pleasant scent that I find reminiscent of cinnamon. I water it every 3 to 4 weeks depending on the season.
Nick I am jelly! I cannot keep a dischidia alive!! I absolutely love them too... ugh. Buuuut I have not yet tried to grow them on a plaque with moss so you have given me hope today my fine sir. Hope. I'm gonna try. And I thank you. xoxo btw I love your sense of humor, you just make me giggle the entire video! 😍🤩💚🌵🌴
AAAAHHH!! Love this video! I love my dischidias and can’t wait to collect more. Definitely going to try your wood plaque/sphagnum moss display. Sooo cool. And you should add the Dragon Jade dischida to your collection :D
Bonjour Nick,I love these plants!But a bit difficult to get in my country. Well,anyways,I enjoy your beautiful collection! 😉 Happy Xmas to you and your family🌲🎅
Oh I love dischidias! So funky. Pretty easy to care for too. Dischidia vidalii syn pectenoides is super cool too! Definitely check that out! One of my fave dischidias. Haha I love the ones that sorta shingle and the ant plant type ones. I prefer growing dischidias mounted they're easier to manage that way haha. They're epiphytic after all.
Maybe more humid air around your quadrangularis for the leaves to developer, or a dome for awhile to see what happens. Mine did the same , so I mounted it on the back wall of my terrarium.
I would love a video explaining how to tell the difference between dischidia and hoya. They look so similar to me. Like pothos and philodendron until I learned to differentiate.
i'm going to hold you to it. XDDDDD while I listened to you, I snipped the dead flowers off my amaryllis and left the seed pods for the purpose of experimentation. :D two down, two to go. my apple blossom amaryllis put up TWO flower stalks and a baby bulb. each flower stalk had 5 flowers on it!!! Edit: also i forgot to add, I have 4 amaryllis bulbs
What you have been sold as D. imbricata is actually a hybrid of Dischidia vidalii and Dischidia sp. Camiguin Island, which is predominately the plant that is circulating in the US. True Dischidia imbricata (Blume) Steud. is not in US cultivation.
Your imbracata is actually pectinoides. The imbracata has a pale, white-ish green (vs dark green) and its leaves tend to "cup" in more. Here in Asia it goes by different names, "kangaroo pocket" in the Philippines or "elephant ear" in Thailand where I currently reside. That should give you an idea what the leaves look like. Mine, I have several of them, each ends up look like a bunch of grapes! I also have a couple of pectinoides, these like to climb up more whereas imbracatas tend to droop, probably because their leaves can get pretty thick and heavy. One more thing, the pectinoides sometimes also cup their leaves to look like elephant ears, but those are rather thin and "fluffy"-looking compared to imbracatas.
Dischidia pectenoides is a synonym for Dischidia vidalii, which his plant is a hybrid of, but is NOT pectenoides/vidalii. That plant has clearly dimorphic leaves with one being a small laminate, pointed leaf, and the other a large complex domatia - it does not produce coin shaped leaves.
Love your variegated nummularia. Costa Farms sells then in hanging baskets labeled as ‘Pebble Beach’ but I’ve never found one. I can’t root nummularia for the life of me.
Hi Nick! Please make a video about how to care for dischidia nummularia! I recently got mine from Steve's Leaves and I can't seem to figure out how to keep it happy.
My fav video in a long time! Please keep doing these but I would literally pay to see you create one of these planks for us! I have searched through all your videos after seeing a hoya shingled that I had cuttings of. I never found the how to just the one where you showed it. BUT now I see all your shingles/boards/planks whatever you call them and I must learn more!!!! :-) Mostly if I do the 2 dischidia I have sitting here do you have some type of substrate under the spagh or is it just mounded up well? Thanks Nick and Happy New Year!
Hi Nick! I'm hoping to find some Dischidia as I love all of the ones you show. I didn't see this in the video, but when you mount Dischidia, do you add soil below the sphagnum moss, or are they just growing on the moss? I hope you'll address this because I think it's important to know. I know some of your other mounted plants have soil below the moss. I would love to have every one of these plants. Fingers crossed I can find some! 🤞 Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful plants with us1
Love coming to your channel knowing I’ll see some plants I’ve never heard of. So sick of everyone showing the same pink Princess in every video. Love how unique your collection is.

Sphagnum Moss is one the best things to grow your plants in I think. How they provide good air flow and soak up the water is just so nice! 😍
Great in terms of your single plant, yes. Terrible in terms of how important bogs, where it grows, are for a plethora of rare species and storing carbon =)
I have a variegated million hearts Dischidia. Man, I love that plant. So stinkin cute and the tiny flowers 😍.
Thanks for this video. Had no idea they grow well mounted.
I would like to see a timelapse of how you have to water ALL those plants. My goodness.
When you ♥️ your plants, you find a way, I have well over 250 inside plants, & not one is neglected...
I love how you are open about your plant struggles Nick. It helps me feel better about my own!

Somewhere, someone is watching your videos and immediately jacking up prices of every plant you mention. :P
I always think about this too! I love Nick but im always hesitant to recommend his channel to new people! lol
i love these videos so much, please make more! i just got a monstera dubia and its my first shingling plant and i cant wait to get it on a plank!

I love them all!! I love how Discidia often looks like Hoya! Now I'm off to hunt an Ovata down 💚
I had never heard of this genus before, and I LOVE them! They are so interesting looking-I guess I’ll hit the internets to see what I can find…
early! happy 100k subs btw!❤️

YES for collections! Looking forward to each group ❤️
Sometimes I just play your videos over and over and let the ads play through cause you deserve it! And your voice is calming to me lol.
Hi Nick! Just enjoy your videos, you're so sweet to share plant information with us, congratulations on 100k subs, have a Merry Christmas, hugs from Orange County, Ca 😃🎅🎄⛄❄❤❤
Congrats on 100K! I’m still shocked that it took this long but I have a feeling you’ll be reaching 200k much swifter 🥰🤩
Dischidia is so much fun :)
What a great idea.

Holy crap 100,000 subs . Congratulations 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
Dischidia Major, sometimes called rattle skulls is the most metal plant ever. Definitely take a look if you like weird and wonderful plants.
Dischidia imbricata looks so cool. I have a Dischidia nummularia on top of my kitchen cupboard in a pot, with its leaves trailing down. It's a really dark corner and I always forget to water it, but it's green and happy.

mine is wrapped around a hanger with moss and now lives in my shower. I already love it
When I got my first dischidia I was told to put it in a mixture of mostly cocoa husk sphagnum Moss and a sprinkle of soil. Good luck and thank you
Don't forget to do the unboxing of your award!... Congrats
What award?
@@yonokzeller5402 100k subscribers award from youtube
I love this type of videos. I would love to see all of your philodendrons.
I have a large 8 inch pot of million hearts hanging in a west facing obstructed window and it grows like crazy. The flowers, while insignificant, actually have a very pleasant scent that I find reminiscent of cinnamon. I water it every 3 to 4 weeks depending on the season.
the mounts you made yourself are beautiful...such intereseting shapes and textures!
Fantastic video! Loved seeing your mounts. Thank you!
Loved seeing so many possibilities with mounts... my next plant will be mounted...
I ordered some Dischidia nummularia seeds, so this was perfect timing.
I hope you make a video about germinating the seeds and growing the beebs!
@@3_up_moon I will try to document it since you asked 😆 Hope I get one seedling to grow at least. Ordered 10 seeds.

Love, love, love. I am waiting for the hoya too. thank you from London!
I love Dischida, i got them growing in a small hanging pots...
So happy to see you! Hehehe love your videos, they’re always so informative. You have a confident and positive vibe and I love it! 🌿💚🤙
Interesting video, as always Nick. I have never seen dischidia in any garden Centre here near Toronto, Canada. Look like great alternatives to hoya.
Love love dischidias! I feel like they are very underrated!
your plaques are beautiful.
Maybe more humid air around your quadrangularis for the leaves to developer, or a dome for awhile to see what happens. Mine did the same , so I mounted it on the back wall of my terrarium.
I would love a video explaining how to tell the difference between dischidia and hoya. They look so similar to me. Like pothos and philodendron until I learned to differentiate.
Gave me an idea to mount my air plants( Tilansia ) inside Nic , love the Dischidia! Thank you 👌🧤👒🐨🦘🇦🇺🌱
WOW! you do love your plants, you make me want to try to grow these plants, can't wait to go and get some the year of 2021plant list's
Nice collection! I have some nummularia right now and the way you set them up in barks is so good. I'm going to copy it :3
Don't have a single one. Now want to try. Thank you
I cannot wait until the peperomia show & tell !
i'm going to hold you to it. XDDDDD while I listened to you, I snipped the dead flowers off my amaryllis and left the seed pods for the purpose of experimentation. :D two down, two to go. my apple blossom amaryllis put up TWO flower stalks and a baby bulb. each flower stalk had 5 flowers on it!!!
Edit: also i forgot to add, I have 4 amaryllis bulbs
You have a very nice collection . You probably could grow the one in a pot in a terracotta pot great video
Congratulations on 100k. Well deserved! 💚
u deserve million subs!!
"Imbricata" and the English verb "imbricate" share the same root. It refers to something that overlaps, like shingles and roofing tiles.
Happy Holidays! Great videos!
I really need to get me some mounted plants. Gives off really cool vibes 😍
Merry Christmas 🎄
Very cool collection! Makes me wanna do some wall mounts.. :)
Merry Christmas 🎄 Happy Holidays Nick!!
Congrats on 100.000 ♥
you have inspired me to mount some of my plants!

Recently I developed the interest on dischidia.
What you have been sold as D. imbricata is actually a hybrid of Dischidia vidalii and Dischidia sp. Camiguin Island, which is predominately the plant that is circulating in the US. True Dischidia imbricata (Blume) Steud. is not in US cultivation.
To add onto this, what you have as acuminata is Dischidia phuphanensis/former sp. Crested. And your “lanceolata” is Dischidia bengalensis.
I have a variegated D. ruscifolia that would love to be mounted, just need to find a decent piece of bark; and some sphagnum.
I am in Toronto, Canada and am going to look for the Nummalaria, but i might have to wait because everything is closed right now due to Covid.
Your imbracata is actually pectinoides. The imbracata has a pale, white-ish green (vs dark green) and its leaves tend to "cup" in more. Here in Asia it goes by different names, "kangaroo pocket" in the Philippines or "elephant ear" in Thailand where I currently reside. That should give you an idea what the leaves look like. Mine, I have several of them, each ends up look like a bunch of grapes! I also have a couple of pectinoides, these like to climb up more whereas imbracatas tend to droop, probably because their leaves can get pretty thick and heavy. One more thing, the pectinoides sometimes also cup their leaves to look like elephant ears, but those are rather thin and "fluffy"-looking compared to imbracatas.
Dischidia pectenoides is a synonym for Dischidia vidalii, which his plant is a hybrid of, but is NOT pectenoides/vidalii. That plant has clearly dimorphic leaves with one being a small laminate, pointed leaf, and the other a large complex domatia - it does not produce coin shaped leaves.
Love your variegated nummularia. Costa Farms sells then in hanging baskets labeled as ‘Pebble Beach’ but I’ve never found one. I can’t root nummularia for the life of me.
BRAVO ON THE 100K!!!😉👏👏👏
Hi Nick! Please make a video about how to care for dischidia nummularia! I recently got mine from Steve's Leaves and I can't seem to figure out how to keep it happy.
My fav video in a long time! Please keep doing these but I would literally pay to see you create one of these planks for us! I have searched through all your videos after seeing a hoya shingled that I had cuttings of. I never found the how to just the one where you showed it. BUT now I see all your shingles/boards/planks whatever you call them and I must learn more!!!! :-) Mostly if I do the 2 dischidia I have sitting here do you have some type of substrate under the spagh or is it just mounded up well? Thanks Nick and Happy New Year!
Loved to see some of your mounted plants up close 😍 do you buy the wood, or where do you get it?
Hi Nick! I'm hoping to find some Dischidia as I love all of the ones you show. I didn't see this in the video, but when you mount Dischidia, do you add soil below the sphagnum moss, or are they just growing on the moss? I hope you'll address this because I think it's important to know. I know some of your other mounted plants have soil below the moss. I would love to have every one of these plants. Fingers crossed I can find some! 🤞 Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful plants with us1
Just got my first dischidia oiantha and the variegated one after this video hahaha
Doing Chamberlain mentioned on a podcast that he grows d. Ovata in moss. I tried it and it works so well! Maybe you can mount yours in moss?
Not you uploading this on the day my dischidia imbricata decided to breathe its last breath😭
