Your voice is so relaxing

[@PeggysPlants]

Oh thank you!

[@rebeccamyott7041]

Yes, I understand the plant grows slower than most.❤ Beautiful little sprout too.

[@PeggysPlants]

Until it hits a growth spurt. It's a beautiful plant. Thanks for watching!

[@Daisy_1557]

Hi Peggy I believe what you have it’s a anthurium radican x luxurian. From what I can see in your video the petiole are round shaped were as a luxurian has more of a square like petiole. I do have both anthuriums. Please do correct me if I’m wrong.

[@PeggysPlants]

Thank you for the information. You may very well be correct. It was sent to me as a Luxurians, but I have wondered if it was the correct id. Thanks again!

[@pengkeattay4781]

Who will give u a free luxurian? Taken for a ride.

[@rowenalatorre4872]

same thought the leaf are exactly the same fr radicans bigger abs luxurians has smallers abs and darker leaf... difinetly a x of lux & radicans...

[@tanyakauffman311]

I watched another plant person’s leca video. He does 50/50 leca and perlite. So leca then sprinkle perlite, tap tap tap tap, repeat with final layer of leca. I tried this combination with two of my plants.

[@PeggysPlants]

Very interesting. I've always just used the leca and haven't strayed since it works for me. I say find what works best for you and stick with it. Best of luck and happy growing.

[@deediane8874]

Thank you, Peggy, for that demonstration. I loved seeing the difference in how cuttings survive or not with different mediums. You've given me a great idea with using the perlite in place of the lecca. The result was enough for me to order another bag of perlite and try with some of my struggling cuttings. Thanks for sharing!

[@PeggysPlants]

You are so welcome! I always have a big sack of perlite handy. If one thing isn't working, I try something else Thanks for watching.

[@stephaniebuzzella1]

You could take another cutting as well, that bottom node section is thick and you could definitely prop it again 😍🥳 congrats!

[@PeggysPlants]

Thanks for the tip!

[@gloriaa.4858]

Please show us an update on this beautiful Anthurium. I'm hoping the little paper clip baby does well. Thanks, Peggy.

[@PeggysPlants]

You are very welcome. I will be sure to continue to update you all on this plant. Thanks for watching.

[@VickyHafler]

I hope that little baby makes it for you. So cute. Thanks for the video.

[@PeggysPlants]

I hope so too! Thank you for watching. I will keep you posted.

[@arelettebreaux938]

Hi, Peggy! It's. good to see a video from you. Don't worry about the light, it's fine. That was a good decision, to progate.Again, it's so good to see you, and stay safe.

[@PeggysPlants]

Thank you so much! It's good to be back. I plan to once again post videos on a regular basis. Life has been happening and I'm finding my footing. Stay well and thanks for watching.

[@kyrad6543]

Peggy is back! You are so good at observing decline in your plants. Thank you for the information about perlite being a better choice for the one prop. I need to get more aware.

[@PeggysPlants]

You are so welcome! Yes, I am back. I will be posting on a more consistent basis. Thanks for the support!

[@ayanam510]

Wow what a treat! Luxurians is such a beautiful plant to me.

[@PeggysPlants]

I think so too! Thanks for watching!

Very interesting video. You have a way with plants for sure. Once again I wasn’t notified of your new video. So frustrating because I don’t want to miss any. KZbin seems to have a lot if these glitches lately 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@PeggysPlants]

Hello Linda Sue! Sorry to hear you are having issues with the notification. It seems to be a common issue, beyond my control. I'm pleased you found the video interesting. Thanks for watching!

@@PeggysPlants yes it is common unfortunately. Have a great weekend. By the way are you still moving?

[@tropicalheat1558]

I used to plant my Plant my Anthurium crystallinum in potting mix but it thrives better when I planted it in leica and chopped coconut husk.

[@PeggysPlants]

Thanks for sharing. I may have to try adding some coco husk, since I have some. I'm always experimenting. Stay well and thanks for watching.

Thank you! 😄

[@qtipq_]

i have a declining anthurium with me too! i put it in moss but it didnt seem to be very happy, so it's in water now; im not sure if that will work though. if it continues being sad i might get perlite and see how it fares!

[@PeggysPlants]

Honestly, I wish I never purchase an Anthurium. This one that was given to me is doing well, but the ones I purchased have been a struggle. What was I thinking? Perlite has been working well for me. Best of luck!

[@jerrysmith3017]

Thats so scary! How did it feel making that first cutting? I know exactly how rare and expensive this beautiful plant is

[@PeggysPlants]

It stressed me out. 🙃 It's amazing how anxious I get, cutting some of these plants. Then the hoping they don't rot phase...Oh, boy!

[@jerrysmith3017]

@@PeggysPlants They really are like pets aint they, like pure breed little pieces of leaf. But The fact that they grow, that they change is what makes them more than just a toy. Thanks for sharing!

I really like Anthuriums and they feel wishy washy about me. I've tried my hand at them several times and failed each time. Now I'm wondering if I try again and put them in leca. Hmmmmm???

[@PeggysPlants]

I feel the same. They are wishy washy for me as well and I'm not sure I will be getting anymore. It all depends on how things go with the ones I have now.

[@mokyj]

I think the plant you have is Anthurium Radicans hybrid rather than Anthurium Luxurians. Radicans is native to Indonesia.

[@PeggysPlants]

The grower labeled it an Anthurium Luxurians hybrid. I can't be sure what it is, but I love it! Thanks for watching and for the ID assist!

[@growproteas1148]

what about using sphagnum moss for the cuttings?

[@PeggysPlants]

I'm sure spag moss would work too. I believe in using whatever you're more comfortable with...and sometimes I just like to experiment.

[@randolphamos4627]

Hello! I just subscribed to your channel. I’m planning on buying this Pricey plant. Is this easy to take care of?

[@PeggysPlants]

It's hard for me to say since mine has been a rehab plant from day one. Right now it's doing well with no special treatment. It's under a grow light but that's it. It's a nice looking plant!

[@randolphamos4627]

Thank you for your response. I don’t have the grow light but I do have a west facing window. Would it be okay to put it close to the window? Thanks

What is lecca

[@PeggysPlants]

Here is a video that explains what it is and how it is used. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5uZhoBjf9dsibc

[@yeahivekilledthat719]

I was cringing when you made the cutting-always a scary process for me on a special plant. You made an interesting observation with the air/moisture ratio of the potting medium. I moved my magnificum from soil to lechuza pon and it is finally recovering. My radicans really needs to be propagated and I'm going to use your method. As always, thanks for sharing your tips.

[@PeggysPlants]

I have a difficult time cutting special plants, also. I went back and forth so many times before finally taking a cutting. I'm glad I did it and now have more than one plant. Thanks for watching.
