Easy Gift Planters! Neanthe Bella Palms! Chamaedorea Elegans AKA Parlour Palm |

[@GiPaoCreates]

I put a copper coil in my Palmer plant and she absolutely loves. It grew so much within the first week of me getting her

[@katepanthera7265]

When I tried to repot one of these a long time ago, I noticed the roots were very short and had a hard time planting them deep enough to stabilize the plant, and it kept wanting to fall over. Got another one, and will use mounds of moss to help retain moisture and help keep the stems together and in place. Also, I enjoyed hearing the waterfall in the background - soothing and organic.

[@stayhappy8213]

Mine has been so easy to look after. Had her under a year and she's growing well, so came here and you have explained why. She is in the bathroom and there is not much light as such now its winter. Great plant.

[@NYCOrchidQueen]

love the waterfall! It's the tropical part of the party :P Every thing looks cute. ♥♥

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Thank you! Hope the waterfall isn't too loud!

[@beautyfrmwithin89]

Brought mine for Ikea during the winter. It's been so informative. This is my second, I allowed my first to dry out too much. Learned, gave thanks for the experience and doing much better now. Also wanted to note that air plants would do so well in those magnetic plants, since no watering is required.

[@amyl.shultz1121]

Thanks for this video - my daughter just brought one home from the grocery store. Totally dry so I’m watering now!

[@vivisprincess45]

Loved your video. I got one from ikea early March before Covid and it’s doing so well and growing wider and taller. 😊

[@wimbletone]

I bought three (12 cm each) parlour palms from IKEA, and then got an 18cm grow pot and replanted them together lol now it looks so bushy. Put it in a 50% cactus mix, 20% perlite and 30% peat mix.

[@Sunshine-rc7ow]

How often do u water them

[@SuperSimpleasthat]

@@Sunshine-rc7ow water them once a year

[@sandyg8794]

Cute little palm! Great ideas! TFS!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Thank you, Sandy!

[@skyler2762]

Thank you for this video! Very informative. I really liked the part discussing where its from; that's the type of info that really helps me

God Thank you I didn’t what kind of plant I had I So happy I found you

[@javierquesada9612]

Parlor palms doesn't love water. Water must be very occasionally

[@denisesorchidparadise1411]

that little blue pail would be cute with a shovel,( Beach, sand bucket, shovel ,shells and a tiny palm tree. I think I need a vacation to a tropical island!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

that is basically the exact thing i wanted to do with it! But i don't have of the things i would need to pull it off, and the only stuff for sale at the craft store (michaels) is christmas themed.

[@sarandaosterfeld3843]

Hello!!! I know this is a fairly old video haha but i was wondering if you could do a video covering what all the sorts of soil and such that you use 😊

[@Mario-xx7cc]

Nice!

[@DollaSavin]

I love the Sea Shells on top! Adorable! The Magnet Planters are Cute Too. Thanks for Sharing. Sincerely, Dolla Savin

[@TropicalPlantParty]

thank you!

[@caseywasey622]

Cool

[@underpantswedgy]

got mine from IKEA

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Me too! Did i say that in the video? Nice full plants!

[@TJ-tk4ju]

Same! Only £1.75. How much was yours? Mine doesn't have as many stems though!

[@yeah2853]

SAMEEE!

[@vanessavioletprincess1881]

Literally just bought one there today!!! Mine is also pretty small and not too bushy. I hope it'll grew new fronds or I'm probably gonna buy another one and put them together!! Hope it'll survive as I'm still kind of a beginner.

[@yeah2853]

@@vanessavioletprincess1881 I also bought it from IKEA and I have many tips ° spray the leaves with those little squirty bottle thingys it rlly helps °make sure to keep the soil moist IKEA ones seem much more thirsty (i have one not from IKEA) but don't let any water sit at the bottom of your plant pot °pour water through your plant let it drain, do this multiple times as I said before they're thirsty must be the soil (only water when soil gets dry) °don't repot it immediately like I did trust me it stunts the growth ° keep it somewhere where there is sun but not to much mine is in my bathroom as that room gas a very good window abd let's just the right amount of light in ° have fun xx

[@bethjoy7675]

I have an older one that suffered some setback of ants and spider mites and was left too dry for too long. Has recovered from all that now. But now it has only 3 fronds left. Will it grow any more additional fronds, or are we just limited to 3 now?

[@kathymacomber5115]

Cute idea for gifts or even name holders... a pot with the guest name and then they take them home😀

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Awesome! I love that idea!

[@galacticcannibl1966]

I just inherited 2 palms. Both at least 3 ft tall, but there is only 1 trunk about 1-2 inches in diameter at looks lanky. How can I make them lush and full? Or propagate?

[@sablebeauty]

So I got a parlor palm when my grandma passed away in June. And the fronds come out dry and woody and it doesn’t seem happy. But also browning. I don’t water it often but I don’t know if it every dries out fully. Any suggestions?

[@cornerpocket7077]

just bought one....hopefully it does well.....

[@michellef.554]

Does this plant need a bigger pot? And what kind of soil?

[@LiDevil543]

Lot information I found online for this plant, it all says it's water sensitive that it shouldn't be water too much. I understand it was originally from reinforce, so it like moist. How much water are you giving each time then?

[@ydz1016]

My parlor palm started to grow out instead of shooting up so I gently tied a string around the stalks at the bottom to hold it up. Is this okay or could there be an underlying reason for its outward growth? It seems to be healthy overall - very green!

[@minicat3640]

My boyfriend just brought one of these home from our latest trip to ikea, in the store it was like he was begging his parents to adopt a new puppy, I finally gave in. There is no way these 50 baby plants can survive in one pot long term.... I know I have to divide it or thin it out eventually as I'd like for it to live a long time and grow large, any advice? (He doesn't take much care of the plants, he buys them to add to MY already large collection lol.) He already tried to put it outside in full sun on a breezy 50 degree day... sheesh. Sorry for the rant, great video!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

lol, rants are welcomed! They really do over pack them into the pots when they are seedlings, but the neantha bellas really do well clumped up, and kind of naturally thin out on their own over many years, but yeah, 50 is pushing it!

[@gofigure4920]

Sorry 10 months later...we had this miniature palm in a medium size pot for like 20 years until my mom moved for the 3rd time. She gave it away I believe. This grew so beautiful and full and got to be over 3 feet tall! Just use liquid fertilizer. We never gave it new soil or transplant it as I can remember. We should have given it new good potting soil though but fertilizing it a bit helped it. Never had a bug problem, leaf problem! I watered it twice a week.

[@iramx8]

mine just got yellow-y brown leaves & i dont know what it could be , any help !! 😔

[@ebonyreices4536]

I hear from not enough water baby

[@ambercabrillo]

What ratio of coconut core/ and or peat do you use with your soil ? Also do you use cacti soil for your parlor palm or a different type of soil?

[@teresabatongbakal9950]

How often do you water them:: reply please

[@DanielleLeonetti]

Thinking of buying one 🌱

[@cheltsu]

im so sad. i recently got my first and my cat loves to investigate and chew on plants and so she knocked a small barrier over on my palm. the stems haven't been the same and the leaves feel super dried out. is there any way to help it recover from the shock? thanks!

[@fulangchang7492]

My palm gets root rot. It drys to crispy leaves too. I can’t grow this. What can I do or what am I doing wrong. I’ve dried it then watered it and not too much water. But it still root rots and also I can just pull the leaves up from the dirt.

[@xMissMurderous]

Maybe the pot you have it in is too big? (should only be 1”-2” wider than plant roots)

[@nanynany-jp1mr]

it will be big enough like areca or still small ?

[@TropicalPlantParty]

They stay much much smaller

[@kathymacomber5115]

Thanks!

[@TheJake76]

If you were to grow them with submerged roots would they do well like that?

[@TropicalPlantParty]

They can be grown with their roots submerged in moving water (not stagnant water) for a little while, but not prolonged. Sometimes people put them in fountains and aquariums, which works for awhile but eventually they start to decline unless it is a true hydroponic setup. :)

[@TheJake76]

@@TropicalPlantParty thanks, I feel like your the only youtuber that actually responds lol.

Hey, I need help here, so I have a hypoestes plant and the leaves are sort of folding in on itself, I’ve watered it and it’s in a spot which is close to my window, please help!

[@mgarcia0607]

I just bought mine today from Home Depot. I have a question. Now that I got it home I noticed the ends of the leaves are starting to curl. Is that normal? I'm wondering if it's due to removing it from HD atmosphere and into my home. I have it on my night stand in my room which is usually dark but I do have a fan on almost at all times. I do plan on misting it once a day and watering 1x week for now. Will that help the leaves from curling?

[@squishasmr]

im in the exact same boat. almost tempted to put it in my closet. but theres no light in there unless i keep the door open, i dont know 😭

[@r_toronto1120]

Do this plant give oxygen at night?

[@bang1339]

My bella palms are turning brown. I put them outside for two days because I went out of town. I need help on how to make them green again. I really feel guilty. I actually name them Bella, Nean and Paloma..

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Oh you shouldn't feel guilty, you put them outside to help them. They bounce back very easily. Just give it plenty of water, bright indirect light and as much warmth as you can and they'll shoot out new fronds in no time. Oh and a good fertilizing will help also. :)

[@bang1339]

@@TropicalPlantParty thank you so much!!

[@manitgurung3329]

Is areca palma and parlour palm is same

[@TropicalPlantParty]

no they are very different. The Parlour palm stays very small where as Areca palms get very large in comparison.

[@sydneyfrancesca]

How long can I keep it in the black plastic pot that it came in?

[@TropicalPlantParty]

typically until it becomes hard to keep the plant hydrated or you notice the plant just isn't responding well to it's appropriate care.

[@jenniferlumbra3853]

My parlour palm is Pretty big! This last couple of weeks It has produced these weird bunches of seeds I’m assuming. I’m trying to figure out how to prepare them for planting new plants.

[@TropicalPlantParty]

How fun! Once the seeds develop then dry fully they will propagate fairly easily.

[@Zaagvis]

Hey, do these plants need destilled water? or soft water atleast?

[@lazxrev]

Tap water will do

First thing I watch on you tube in weeks. My eyes are working today! I have been looking for those little Palms since you planted one over your little Asian guy and I have yet to find one so don't be telling me you can find them everywhere they're everywhere everywhere everywhere😝😝😝 👉👵👈

[@TropicalPlantParty]

LIBBY! SHE'S BACK! I had been wondering where you were! They usually have them with accents plants and terrarium plants at the nurseries. When lowes or home depot has them they are on the tables inside, but the last few times I've been there, i havent seen them, assumed thats because they are all about christmas right now. How have you been!?

[@bettyhouk8727]

Libby's Little Garden , I don’t know if they are everywhere. But I bought 2 of the little darlings today at Home Depot ( feb.7,2018) they are so cute , just what I was looking for, .I am in Arizona so we may get plants a little early then most of nation ,due to our warm climate in winter. And Florida too has warmer winter , hope you find some of these palms soon. You will love them Blessed Be 👍💕🦋🌈👵🏻🐶😺🌵
