how i grow and care for the philodendron tortum 💚 (+ repot and new merch!!)

[@valme0w]

I got a tortum because of you. I love watching them unfurl 😍

[@nefertitisroyalsoapery]

So guilty of fondling my plants when they don’t need anything and rearranging them every week when I water. It’s so hard to just look and not touch/repot all the time lol. Loved seeing this tortum care video!

The only KZbinr I’ve ever and will ever buy merch from. Just ordered the oversized crystallinum T.

[@unplantparenthood]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! i appreciate you for real!! 😭

[@joannanovara815]

I grow mine in Colorado low humidity ambient, in my living room getting low/medium indirect natural light. In cooler season temps it slows down in growth but otherwise does great! I usually spray newly unfurling fronds every day. No pests issues. Probably my most beloved plant out of my 200.

[@joannanovara815]

I planted two plants together when they were younger and it grows nice and bushy.

[@GreenWitch1]

I absolutely adore my Tortum! It’s the easiest plant to care for. I have mine in a chunky, soilless philodendron mix and like all my plants, I let it dry out and then water thoroughly. I got it about 6 months ago & it’s tripled in size. There’s always a new leaf unfurling. My plants really appreciate the Sansi grow lights and GT Foliage Focus weakly with every watering. Your baby is gorgeous!!

[@ArcaneAntihero]

The new collection slaps 🔥✨ The only problem is figuring out which ones to grab. Happy Wednesday! 💕

I've had my Tortum for 4 years and it's no fuss at all. I just love it :)

[@enidaakdeniz8495]

I have a tiny Tortum and I love it! It’s growing in pon in my kabinet.

[@lisaanglim9588]

I keep forgetting to inoculated plants when I repot. But I’ve got it on my mind I’ll do it. I’ve got three plants to repots.

This video brings me back to when I first discovered your channel and you worked on your plants and talked through this and that. As a hobbyist, I really enjoyed how much you enjoyed caring for your plants. And I could relate when aspects of the hobby are less enjoyable. As a huge fan, I find myself thoroughly annoyed with people who threaten to unfollow you. Sheesh.

[@d.dragonfly1970]

I have been trying to find one larger than 2 inches. You are the one who exposed me to this plant.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Good morning Charmaine. I can’t wait for this. I’ve got a tiny tortum it’s still on my west facing windowsill, but I’ve added a grow light for the winter.

[@maryperry5910]

My tortem never shows signs of thirst either. Such an easy going girl. I love it

[@Shopgirl2731]

Queeeeennnnnnnn!!! Watching now while cleaning

[@emleithead5731]

Out of all the years that you've had your tortum, Australia has only just finally started getting them recently. I got my first one at the start of this year. It's my most coveted plant 😂😂😂😂😂.

[@PetraEmmy]

I LOVE that tortum... and Thanks for the upload and AWESOME new merch! 🎉👌💟

[@unplantparenthood]

[@unplantparenthood]

[@LeBigTrip]

Just got a big tortum!!! Perfect timing.

[@seara-beara]

good timing, i just got a baby tortum a couple weeks ago ❤

[@patriciamusquiz2834]

I love tortums too! I have a baby one that I’m patiently waiting for it to size up! She’s a cutie. Your is so beautiful ❤❤❤

[@SLee-vc9gd]

Oh my poor sweet Tortie!!😫 She was doing beautifully and idek what happened but those roots rotted. I think it was more of a dry rot situation. As of now she's all cut up in a prop box. IF (😭)...I can get her to root I'm definitely trying no drainage!! I am so over almost all philodendrons but that Tortie has my entire heart!!! Had to save this video for my hopefully future pot up of cuttings...🤞🏼💚

[@lisaanglim9588]

Your tortum looks great in her new pants.

[@Liliplantdiaries]

Omg a Wednesday upload 🎉

[@unplantparenthood]

surpriiiise!!

[@lisaanglim9588]

Wow, yours has grown fast. I’ve had mine a year and it’s really only put out two leaves. I think it’s trying to put out a new little nub of a branch/ leaf.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Does it help to spraying the new leaf that will help it unfurl?

[@lisasteele6445]

I had a tortum that was doing sooo great outside with all of the rain and humidity. Once I brought it into the house, it started to be a real jerk and lose leaves. I was letting it dry out in the house. I wound up getting rid of it but now I’m wondering if I should have just put it in no drainage.

[@lisaanglim9588]

You don’t mix the cal-mag and the fertilizer in one watering can ? Why? Why does that do?

[@rayneedayz1]

Bigger pants 😂 love that!

[@yntjimenez8573]

My tortum is an angel as well 😂 #teamtortumlover

[@lisaanglim9588]

Is it wanting to crawl?

[@lisaanglim9588]

That smallest leaf is the size of my whole tortum

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

Do I have a philodendron tortum? No 😅 Am I watching this whole video anyways? Yes 😂 Most philos do nottttt like me or my care/conditions 🥲

[@unplantparenthood]

REALLY?! did you try whispering sweet nothings to it? or threatening it while you hold it over the garbage can? those two methods usually work really well for me!

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

@@unplantparenthoodi haven't tried threatening them yet but maybe I should 😂 I think it's my own fault from maybe under-watering them but I'm not sure :( The vining/hanging ones hate me the most 😅

[@lisaanglim9588]

[@lisaanglim9588]

I watch Alice’s anthurium videos. And do it hade an anthurium? No and I don’t plant on getting one. I just like way Alice talks and il admit some of them are beautiful. But when she goes to talking about the seedlings, that all look alike I kinda check out.

[@lisaanglim9588]

How do I and you a C picture of my tortum?

[@28tv.]

👍👍😍😍❤❤

[@hannahwhite4734]

repotted my little tort into a tree fern mix with a leca reservoir 🫡🫡 hoping for good results; also excited for me merch to come in :)
