[@karenroberts781]

Your L discolor is looking fabulous. They are terrestrial and don’t mind being in more traditional soil mixes, just make sure they don’t stay wet too long. I rotted mine😢. Also, they kind of grow laterally by rhizome and eventually need a wider pot. I really enjoyed this video and hearing about your recent favourites. Really appreciate your videos, Fern ❤. Merry Christmas ❤

[@hollypuckett3931]

Alternatively, they’ll crawl over the edges and that’s a vibe as well. Def not a look everyone likes but I kinda like it

[@shanoncollier2106]

Mine definitely need wider pots. I have 2 ludisia discolor and really want a green lightening one.

[@lisaanglim9588]

The only plants I don’t like are the ones I don’t have yet. Once I got them I like them. Lol 😂

[@redlady3123]

I vote for bamboo stake too. Moss pole may be too bulky or distracting. Merry Christmas Fern 🎄 Thank you for your awesome content all year. Every video is like opening a new gift from a reliable friend all throughout the year. 😊

[@shesjustsomegirl]

Absolutely agree. The bamboo stake is the way to go!

[@hollypuckett3931]

Your jewel orchid is terrestrial so it’s perfect in that mix 😃❤ I love these collection videos and best of videos

[@mhzplantingaroids]

The Tortum seriously grows on you. At first it seems just like a weed. But the more you look at it, the more it looks unique and the stronger the desire to get one. 🤔 Also, hope you and everyone else have a great holiday!

[@shanoncollier2106]

They are definitely fun plants.

[@mhzplantingaroids]

@@shanoncollier2106 I added it to my list due to this video and hopefully when my greenhouse garden is ready, I’ll have space for it heh!

[@cristyandplants]

Love the tortum. I would go for the bamboo pole too. ❤😊

[@joannanovara815]

To my knowledge and personal experience tortums are fast, easy growers! I had an accident with mine too and a whole new leaf snapped off...it almost immediately pushed new growth!

[@lizmarie6989]

Stake the tortum a miss pole will take away from the leaves for sure. I totally understand the connection you have with your plants lol. I touch and inspect mine every time I water it is like a relationship …not weird at all. 🥰

[@halliedobbins]

GUURL you have worked this month! Thank you for all the wonderful content. Happy holidays to you and your family. * Little pats for Olive * 🎄⛄️❄️ ❤ Enjoy some much deserved time off 😊

[@amandak4695]

Merry Christmas, Fern. You’re such a sweet soul. I enjoy your content so much! Can’t wait for all you’ll do in 2023!

[@theleafyloftmtl]

I love P. Tortum too!! And your tiny pitcher plant is too cute for words. You just made me want one even more! 💚

[@DimaculanganPunch]

Spending christmas with coworkers at the hospital. Somebody gotta keep people alive. Happy holidays!

[@wildfern]

I feel you! This was how I spent my Christmas for a few years, I always enjoyed working this day. Hope your shift is going well! 💚❤️💚

[@greengoddess6664]

Totally support a tortum video. I don't have one but I'd like to prepare for the day when I do!! Merry Christmas Fern and thank you for all the work you have put into providing us with excellent and informative videos. You create great content and have earned every one of those 100k subscribers.

[@Ruby-wt6bf]

Yes!!! There aren’t many videos out there about the care

[@luhnonato3]

Hello fern, happy holidays from Brasil, I wish your Channel keeps growing next year, you deserve the best. I was feeling really depressed bc I lost my cat and then I lost my grandpa (and a lot of other losts and ending cycles that happened this year) but your videos helped me get through the grief and the sadness that 2022 brought to me. I truly wish the best for you. Happy new year and merry Christmas ❤

[@wildfern]

Hey, thank you so much for your kind words. I’m so sorry for your losses 😞 I hope 2023 looks up for you 💚

[@pudik2008]

So deeply sorry for your losses! 💔 Sending you hugs from Australia 🤗

[@ashlinalley9615]

My peperomia hope is also one of my favorites! It was one of my first plants and it has always brought me so much joy ❤️ Hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend!

[@RedRona7]

I also have that clamp grow light that I manage to kind of hide so you only see the light and not the lamps so much. I love them, they work amazing in my darkish corner

[@wildfern]

They really work even better than I thought. And smart to hide the clamp part. Maybe I can figure out a way to blend it in better too lol.

[@sophiamaltese6401]

Cmon content!!! You’re giving us exactly what we need lately!!

[@Stephanie.vu_]

Yes please share more about your P. Tortum! Mine is on the struggle bus 😢

[@joehisel5966]

Your be surprised how diverse of a medium you can use on various plants.alot of times the watering habits will change, but plants are resilient things!

[@amyelizabethweafer]

Bamboo pole☺️ Have a lovely Christmas Fern! 🎄🐶🌱☃️

[@lisaanglim9588]

Congrats on 101 K followers, Fern. You’re one of my favorite plantubers. You’re always upbeat and I can’t wait to see each week what you’re going to say. Keep on

[@shanoncollier2106]

I put a bunch of trailing plants on my mantle (micans, heartleaf philodendron, cebu blue, brasil, Scindapsus pictus, and a manjula pothos) and I ordered the individual lights for pots, the little ring ones, and I love it. I plan on putting in a 2x2 on top and clipping little 4 inch pots on it with those clips that Becca uses. So excited.

[@reedebrown6006]

These plants are so cool. Love the video and will definitely look at those grow lights as I currently don’t have any but could do with some. Hope you’re keeping warm and cozy💚

[@wildfern]

Thank you so much 😊

[@chelllz1017]

Ferrrrnnnn!❤❤❤ congrats on 100K. Right now, as I see it, you’re at 101! 🎉🎉

[@gladyssolano5006]

Hi fern 💚happy holidays.. I'm so addicted to your vlogs😍 hope to see more grocery haul and what I eat in a week content. Thank you 💚💚💚

[@botanicassie]

I really do adore you fern! I get emotional so easy too 😅. I was playing rock music that my parents listened to when I was a kid, for my little boy last night and was sobbing listening to heavy metal with a 18 month old 🤣 he loved it and then fell asleep. Happy new year and bless your heart!! ❤🎉

[@wildfern]

Oh my gosh I would be sobbing too, that is so special 💚

[@charliecgreenwelljr8011]

It’s all about the Tortem wow! Happy holidays to you and yours

[@VickyHafler]

I can not wait for my Tortum to look like yours! 🥰🥰🥰 she is ALWAYS growing a new leaf, but isn’t growing upwards. I would use something thinner than a moss pole. I just learned they needed something to grow up on something…. Thanks! Your Hope 😮 I’m not sure why mine curls the leaves 🤷‍♀️ she’s not been easy for me. I love that I see a lot of plants I own in your videos. Merry Christmas, enjoy your time with family. Phoebe says hi to Olive.

[@karenmyers9146]

I got Barrina grow lights and zip tied them to the canopy part and hang the plants up. They love it. Also to get more hanging space I bought a pretty and sturdy curtain rod and hung that up near the ceiling and also zip tied Barrina grow lights on that so I have extra room to hang plants

[@alexsiberry4775]

Love your P. tortum. I'm putting mine on smooth pale driftwood once it starts to reach out but the bamboo would work well too. It's more important for me that the busy leaves have uniform size rather than continually sizing up so I decided against a moss pole. Merry Christmas!

[@rhondafisher72]

Your plants are looking great. Love that Tortum. Hope you have a wonderful fantastic Christmas and Happy New Year.

[@summer3498]

I like the idea of bamboo stick for your tortum. You could always take a prop later and try the moss pole. I just think bamboo will look so good! Also you look beautiful and I hope you had a wonderful Christmas ♥️

[@wildfern]

Thank you so much!!

[@kristarepp2607]

Merry Merry Christmas to you! Love the tortum! Love the idea of a bamboo stake for him. And as always, looooove your videos !❤

[@madelinerivera3837]

Such beautiful plants! I just order the Tortum today. I have been contemplating for like a year now and bit the bullet today. I am so excited, and can't wait to receive it.😁

[@mkdila]

i have my ludisia discolor in a similar mix, its been in it for at least a year i think? and has bloomed multiple times and pupped so much so if its doing well i say keep it in what its in!! 🙌

[@peggybouillon9737]

I have the same grow lights and I’m happy with them also! Merry Christmas and wishing you the very best in 2023 Fern!

[@wildfern]

That’s great to hear! They really surprised me. So glad my plants are happy with them. Merry Christmas :)

[@psycheready6958]

Fern! You look so pretty in red! Also, your tortum is so big!! I really want one after seeing yours.

[@aplantprocess]

I’ve often wondered if cabinets would create a situation where there’s less of a connection. Thanks for commenting on that. I have some projects underway for cabinets but the goal is to grow most of my plants in my open living space. As in, cabinets will be for rehabs and isolation.

[@mistysstudio87]

Great video with fun opinions with your personal experience! And , once again.. You are GORGEOUS!!!

[@wildfern]

Thank you so much 🥺

[@petra83]

My Tortum grows like a weed,even in winter,love her❤️

[@marsf4883]

Your tortum looks super cool, can’t wait for mine to grow bigger. Love your new carnivorous plant too, so cute. Happy Holidays! ❤

[@wildfern]

Thank you so much! Happy holidays :)

[@MaisieVine]

Hi fern I woukd love to see a video about all the grow lights u have and ur experiences with them and thoughts 😊

[@fallenbarbieee]

Just started the video, just had to pause and comment. You look absolutely gorgeous😍

[@oliviajohnson9014]

Your hair is so gorgeous! Love this style for you

[@saharawylde9666]

Thank you for sharing so much love in this world ♥️♥️

[@lindaholder2222]

Happy new year Fern 🎉 hope you are well and I'm looking forward to new planty videos

[@lindagailsch]

Merry Christmas Fern. Always love your videos.

[@Micmac24]

I have a quinquenervia and love it. Since I put sulphur on it there has been so much new growth! 😊🎄

[@wildfern]

Sulphur seriously works magic!!! 🪄

[@PatchaXEtaw]

Omg Fern you have changed so much for 1 year wow

[@theplantwitch6052]

Happy new year fern!! I hope your holidays were amazing

[@carly.s]

Merry Christmas Fern🎄 love the festive look! Clamp lights are saving my life right now in Ontario

[@wildfern]

A serious life saver lol!! Thanks so much Carly :)

[@sierra734]

Those are the lites I started with . I gave a friend a baby Pitcher Plant in a plastic container with moss mine is having one baby after another 😮 just high humidity never let it dry out is my rule tfs Merry Christmas Fern ❤

[@carolstuff]

Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas & Happy Holiday!

[@Billie-jo_field]

Merry Christmas to you and Olive! 😊🎄🪴💚 Thank you for another awesome video.

[@Jillz81]

Fern! I've got a Hoya quinquenervia and it just bloomed. Like 4 peduncles all at once at the smell is AMAZING. Can't say that about many hoys tbh. I also have mine near a Sansi grow light so I have some minor sun stressing. Mine looks a lot like yours.

[@daniel.plantslover]

merry christmas and happynewjear and more plants on 2023 😁😁😇

[@bbaileesmith]

Everytime I get on KZbin, I check your page to see if you posted first before I watch any other videos 😂 love your vids ❤

[@bbaileesmith]

Also, so happy to finally see your Tortum 😅 I’m obsessed with yours. Mine is struggling

[@debragiannetti9755]

Merry Christmas & a healthy happy New Year!!! Thank you for all the wonderful content and information you have shared with us this year 🥰

[@angela86753]

Merry Christmas Fern and Olive 🎅

[@PetraEmmy]

Merry Christmas! 💚🎄🎁 your orchid grows in potting mix.. Looks fantastic!

[@platitudestern5149]

I'm glad, I didn't watch a few of your videos..😅🤣 Now, I have like 2 videos to watch while I get ready and finished for 😍🥰Xmas.. ty, for giving us all great planty content, your awesome!! It's been sooo fun to watch your journey... You rock, my socks! 😜😘 Can't wait to see what else happens for the new year!! 😊👏🙌 Also, congrats on 100000 🤩🤩😜

[@wildfern]

Awe thank you so much!!! Hope you enjoyed catching up on the videos. Merry Christmas!

[@lorrainecourtney4589]

Little pitcher plant is so cute

[@sagewillowLisa]

Round leaves are my fave leaf shape. I want a perperomia hope. Your plant looks amazing! I have a silver dollar vine, too. I love mine so much. Silver dollar plants are so underrated. I have mine on a ladder shaped trellis. I’d like to let him just hang in his pot, but he seems top heavy and to have “weak” stems, so I’m scared to take away the trellis.

[@beverlytrulson9373]

Merry Christmas to you and your Mom! Be safe in this crazy weather. Please wish me luck in getting to see my Mom on Christmas Eve!? She's getting dementia and it might be my last Christmas with her being lucid. Last Christmas where she knows me😢. So good wishes would be great! Enjoy your Mom this holiday season! Beverly

[@dannydevito5312]

So recently I was gifted a money tree and it sparked my joy for keeping plants again. I used to keep poison dart frogs and had tons of plants in their tanks so I’m fairly new to house plants. If I’m trying to grow out some string of hearts&turtles and a couple Hoyas would it be okay to propagate back into the same pot? I see tons of people propagating in different containers or water and I don’t have tons of room and was wondering if I could just cut the plant and pop it back in the pot

[@_justsilvie]

I have that same grow light from Amazon and it's done wonders for my plants! (the bulkier one) I remember you doing a collab with a blonde girl on KZbin quite some time ago ugh I can't remember her name sorry But you guys both agreed that those kind of grow lights didn't do anything and I was so skeptical to buy them But I'm so happy I did! My zz raven hadn't grown at all for 6 months and with this light it's doubled in size 😍 all of my plants near the light are exploding with new growth all winter long So glad they're helping your plants too 💕

[@shanoncollier2106]

You made me order a begonia amphioxus. Yours is so cute. Let's hope mine arrives as beautiful.

[@lisaanglim9588]

You should be able to clip that Hoya to the trellis. The vine is long enough that you can clip it on the downside and then clip it up the next side going up the other side.

[@HelloJungleRoom]

I feel the same about having a barrier with cabinet plants. I felt the same way with my growtent and everything just got so neglected. ALSO I vote moss pole for the tortum. I just feel like bamboo stakes do nothing and they’re so unstable. Anywayssss…have a merry Christmas!

[@LarsLarsen77]

Tortum is on my wish list. Your Jewel orchid is supposed to be in soil, yes.

[@xenic101]

I love your p. Tortum. Glad it's putting on size. Go with a bamboo stake. That goes with the minimalist vibe the plant naturally has.

[@wildfern]

Yes I totally agree 🙌 Thank you Carl! Merry Christmas to you and your fam.

[@lindasimmons2197]

Merry Christmas Fern…sending positive planty vibes 👍💚🎄

[@audreyr6954]

I’d do a thin moss pole for the tortem cause then it will still be minimalist but also help size up the plant!

[@roots_and_ruin]

I literally just got the exact same three limbed light today! My plant room gets basically zero light anyway, even less in winter, so figured it was time to get another grow light. Glad its working for you :)

[@exortion7311]

Merry Christmas Fern!...🥰♥️

[@rosalind-453]

Have a lovely holiday time fern, all the best for new year 💓🫶🪴🌝

[@paulanoakes5358]

I have a question. I lost power today for about a hour or so and I freak out since I have fish tanks and over 100 plants. Where you are located, have you lost power in the cold months and did your plants suffer? When I can afford one I want to get a standby generator that works off of propane and automatically gives power to the whole house. BTW thanks for another great video as always.

[@nicolepro927]

It’s like Christmas every time Fern uploads a new video💕 Happy Holidays!🎄🪴

[@cozyjackie]

You should try carnivorous sundew!! I've found them to be so much more fun and rewarding than any other carnivore, not to mention they don't need to go dormant at all!

[@teddyruxbin9300]

Merry Christmas Fern!!! ❤❤❤

[@anitaschneider1158]

I hope you and olive have a merry Christmas, I enjoy watching all of your videos, keep up the good work.

[@mx_khn]

Would love to see the Tortum on a moss pole! I’m planning on giving mine a moss pole too 😬 Merry Christmas Fern!

[@wildfern]

Merry Christmas!! :)

[@karenb136]

Loved your video. Wow, the Tortum is really growing up. I think it’s better on a stick because the moss pole would draw attention away from the plant imo. I have the cheaper Amazon grow lights as well and they are doing great. Nobody is here but me so I don’t care what they look like. 😁 Merry Christmas Fern. 🎄💚🌱💚

[@wildfern]

Yes exactly haha! And I definitely agree, bamboo stake coming soon 👏

[@CodyAF333voluntaryist]

I have my Tortum on a moss poll / propstick from Grow Vertical with the plastic backing.

[@AnaC17]

Merry Christmas beautiful!!❤ thank you for your content - you are my favorite plant KZbinr and I enjoy your videos sooo much 😍 Btw, I would use a bamboo stake on that Tortum 😉

[@Lilyplanted]

Great video, the grow light looks great. Im excited for the new growth itll bring the plants on your bed!

[@wildfern]

Me too 😁🙌 Thanks for joining the premiere Lily x

[@mariapapppapp8228]

Happy New Year and I would like to see a video of your Hoya collection - Thank you

[@kristathompson9888]

I had a Peperomia Hope and I killed it 🤷‍♀️ My daughter just gifted me a baby Philodendron Tortum and I’m so happy I finally got one! Merry Christmas Fern and Olive and wishing you all the best for 2023 💚💚💚

[@alice.miha93.]

Merry Christmas!❤

[@cannuck3577]

Love those new Amazon grow lights they are definitely effective for our dark Canadian winters 😊

[@agneslazarenko2653]

Happy holidays!

[@vicky3792]

Merry Christmas sweetie!

[@vicky3792]

I have a Philodendron Tortum cutting that’s doing great so far (6 weeks). I lean toward the bamboo stake. Good luck.

[@cannuck3577]

Bamboo stake and Merry Christmas 🎅 Fern😚

[@EditHandleError]

Hi, what spray/mixture do you use to spray down your new plants when you bring new plants home?

[@ier2734]

Happy holidays! ✨

[@cherylannturner3768]

Merry Christmas to you and Olive! I hope 2023 will be amazing! I enjoy your content so much and learn and use so much from your info.

[@poissonCHA1]

i have a couple (5 i think) of the black clamp amazon grow lights as well, and they arent cute in my appartment either but man are they good ! they're super gentle and warm colored and they last for a LONG time before the LEDs burn. its been saving my collection from the long canadian winter nights for sure !

[@The_Black_Truth]

Thank You Fern For A G💚💚D FRIDAY!!! THE T💚RTUM...Y💚UR T💚RTUM Has Become Such A LIVING W💚RK OF ART That I Agree With Y💚U On NOT Using A Moss Pole To Detract From Such BEAUTY OR HANDS💚MENESS??? 🤣🤣🤣

[@katherinenightingale2205]

Merry Christmas, Fern! I hope it is a happy ad peaceful time for you ❤️

[@susangalizia8616]

I have been growing L D for 3 decades. It is a terrestrial orchid, growing on the tropical floor. Hense you pot it in regular soil not orchid soil.
