    Love that you're not hoarding a load of plants, but focusing on a select few beautiful plants to grow out huge and luscious to maturity. Breathe of fresh air for the plant community. Also I love how you share knowledge without overcomplicating anything. Look forward to more of your videos, kitty included!

I have also noticed that a lot of plant youtuber 's in other countries are also fascinated with ur channel, as so many of them are highlighting your channel as inspiration for what they also would love their plants to be like and how u get such amazing looking plants.

    I have a feeling your channel is going to grow BIG with so many subscribers in the next few months. Your plant collection is just simply STUNNING. I've never seen such large houseplants in a person's home before. I'm waiting until I purchase a house (currently living in a small 1 bedroom apartment) to do a lot more experimentation with plants to make them grow large. Your plants are GOALS! Love your content!

    Definitely do the spotlight series! Perhaps you could focus on your plants in each genus and move slowly through your collection? I would also be really interested to see them in their usual location. How other enthusiasts style and grow their 'helicopter' plants eg Philodendron billietiae, P. atabapoense and Thaumatophyllums also intrigues me.

There is a lot to learn so I love the idea if just taking one plant at a time and breaking it down, I find it way less overwhelming! Keep up the excellent videos, I will continue to watch anything you put out!

  • @amelise

    I never was a fan of Adansonii in the ways I'd seen it displayed before, this video showing their potential given some work and time completely changed my mind. I'd been trying to get hold of one since you posted this and finally got a multi-planted pot of it yesterday from a local lady, took cuttings straight away and currently rooting them in water. Can't wait to get them on a moss pole. Thanks for the inspiration Jan. :)

As of now I bought one basket in Home Depot (so bushy for only CA$17.50) and transferred it in 6" nursery pot, beside my TV (wall mounted). And planning to get few more Adansonii for my 6' pole (birch tree pole) to climb on. So excited!
    I AM SO IMPRESS ON YOUR ADANSONII!!!

    Very impressive. I'm doing something similar with pothos.
    It'll be a bit more work but I'm going to try an air layer to extend. My climbers don't grow well on moss, but they go crazy on just regular old tree branches.
    I love the look of pretty much all mature aroids compared to the immature stage. (Except may the syngoniums)

    You have turned my world upside down with my plant care and growth methods. You are responsible for me spending over $200 at Bunnings in recent days, (wire mesh, spagnum moss, charcoal etc, etc.)
    Im loving your video's although I would mentiom that all Bunnings are not created equal. I live in Gladstone and we dont have anywhere near the plant stock that you enjoy in Sydney.
    Also, I know what you feed your plants, but what do you feed that cat? He is truely a king among felines, he is incredible.

I recently started with Alocasias, they are beautiful but their chunky mix dries out too quick and they suffer. So I'd mostly like to know how you manage to keep their substrate consistently moist all the time? Or the secret is just to water constantly? 😃
