why is this pingdom so so so freaking adorable?!

[@wildfern]

i'm sooo obsessed with it! thank you 😊

[@lindacornett8944]

Here we go again. Something else I’ll have to try. You get me in a lot of trouble, ha, ha. I say no more plants then you show ones I don’t have. Here we go again! Love it❤

[@wildfern]

aww hahah! I'm sorry to be a bad influence, but you definitely need some ping's :)

[@jennifermurphy8750]

If you only knew how many plants I have collected after seeing yours over the years, you'd be surprised for sure. Thank you 💚

[@wildfern]

😁 thank you so much for watching!

[@cosmic99]

I grow mine on a big piece of lava rock that sits in a tray of water, as the lava rock soaks up the water like pumice does.

[@Julia-lg2on]

I’ve never heard of a Pingdom; how cute!

[@dora9368]

I like it too...sounds cute and it is

[@lindaedwards4632]

The “Pingdom” turned out gorgeous 😀🇨🇦

[@lisaanglim9588]

Your pingdom is the cutest thing. I can’t wait to see how it grows up and fills out.

[@dora9368]

Uh Oh...that is so very cute everyone is going to want one 😁🌿👍💚

[@penni7155]

Oh my goshness 😯 how absolutely adorable are those little ping setups!! ❤

[@hwilson8572]

Creativity is definitely a niche for you Fern! So cute and visually appealing ❤

[@wildfern]

thank you so much :)

[@rayneboone9696]

Ahhh Fern! I don't need any more plants! Now i have to get these and give them a try. Thank you for your videos - your time and effort are very much loved and appreciated ❤

[@wildfern]

thank you so much 🥹🌿

[@cheyennegilles2377]

This is literally the video I was hoping to see one day 😭🖤 Fern delivers, yet again!

[@wildfern]

omg amazingggg thank you for watching

[@kpzXO]

Long live the Pingdom!!

[@793lefty]

I love it! ❤ I call my experimental situation a carnivorous plant bog, my substrates were pumice for drainage and spag moss for substrate. I have a wide variety all living together! It's such fun!

[@melissaharnish9094]

Oh my goodness your Pingdom is so darn cute! I’ve been waiting for this video. I got a few pings myself a month ago, and I am anxious to get them out of their little plastic cups and into a cute container. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@dora9368]

Awww Fern what an amazing Pingdom, soooo precious 💕

[@lisaanglim9588]

I love the bowl. It’s really stunning. I’d grab that one too.

[@CynthiaAG]

I did not look away and I regretted it 😂

[@natalieaguero6246]

Same 😂 makes me sick 🤢

[@violette.galaxy]

My agnata x gypsicola is a BEAST at catching flies and blooming, I know you're going to love yours ❤️

[@petersebborn306]

I have been growing Pings for 25 years thanks for making them mainstream 👏🏻👏🏻☺️

[@wildfern]

that is so cool!! 🌱

[@irairod5160]

PINGdom! I hadn't heard the term but loved it immediately!

[@wildfern]

right!! hahah :)

[@Bluebugzzz]

I definitely want updates on this in the future because it’s so cute and I love Pinguicula!

[@Theodoresgranny]

Love love love the pingdom. I have loved the word pinguicula since I heard it a year or two ago. I have three drocera that I have had for 6 months and they are seeming happy, just not as red in the hairs. They have caught lots of fungus gnats. I now have three varieties of pitcher plants since I have been successful with the Alara I added two more recently. Very fun and now I need a pingdom. Thank you for showing us how to do this ❤️

[@OMM-kl1zu]

I use pure peat moss with coarse river sand for my carnivorous plants. I have carnivorous pitcher plants planted in this medium, which I keep outside all year round. I think they may be native to Canada and parts of the USA. I really love the look of your pingdom!!!! What a great way to display them. The large pumice rocks give it a natural look.

[@PlantedinPlatinum]

Obsessed with that bowl 😍😍 Your little pingdom turned out so good queen 💗👏

[@__JillSt.Clair__]

I've wanted to try this for so long! It looks wonderful!

[@robinprice6879]

Pretty much the coolest thing ever! And those babies….

[@chelsearuzesky2834]

Welp…… now I HAVE to make my own Pingdom & mini pingdom!! Obsessed😍🥰😍

[@Martinnrdk]

Fern, how neat! I have pinguiculas growing among live mosses in terrariums.🙂

[@anya.hazelj]

I’ve always wanted to try out pinguicula and make a pingdom! I’m so glad you finally made one 😆😱

[@squish5871]

Pings have been my favorite new plant over the last couple months since i learned about them

[@wildfern]

they are the best!! thanks for watching :)

[@MrsT23]

Such a cute project, love them all so much! Great video Fern.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Good morning Fern. What a treat to find a new Fern video. I’ve been waiting for this video.

[@louiseb5702]

That is the cutest thing! Love what you did with the little containers at the end too 💚. Your previous videos inspired me to try growing pings and I really love them. I bought mine at Valley Succulents in Comox.

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

So cute!!! I got a ping (esseriana) from PlantHaven Toronto a couple months ago and it's been in the same moss that it came in, until a few days ago I FINALLY added it to a different substrate (and a couple of the leaves that had fallen off were growing new tiiiiiiiiny plants!!) I hope I can eventually have enough pings to do a nice set up like you did ❤❤

[@Maryz0lSunny]

I LOVED THIS PROJECT 💚✨ can't wait to have a update on those cuties 🥰

[@jessicarose1651]

Omg! Gotta find a second decorative bowl to fit the rest 🌻✨ this was a really inspiring idea 💚

[@fireflyintheroom]

This turned out so cute! Looks like a little planet from space. What a lovely name too! Pingdom, you bet I will be googling that :D I would add glow-in-the-dark forest spirits figurines for my spooky heart for additional touch 👽👻 (not that anyone asked lol) Very cool project, Fern!💚

[@lynec8317]

🥰 OMG so beautiful! Now I have to do one with some of my pings!

[@lacieplants]

Oh my gosh so stinkin cute!! I love it!!

[@eileendewit]

You did an amazing job!! The pingdom looks so cute😍

[@lisaanglim9588]

The new pings are really cute. Taller ones will make it more interesting with more variety.

[@NM-om2oe]

I am the proud owner of a couple of carnivorous plants and all of them are doing a good job. Besides the pingicuila which I killed twice a couple of years ago. But this arrangement is so adorabele that I'm going to give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration! Besides: the venus flytrap and the sundew both like to thrive outside but they are not made for cold winters if you are still looking for plants for your porch

[@redlady3123]

Lovely little pingdom indeed. 😊And pingdom I will create. 🌱 🏰 I just had a maker handmade a rectangular ping tray for me, so this video couldn’t be more timely! Thanks Fern! 💚 🌱

[@wildfern]

ahh thank you so much, enjoy your pingdom!

[@lisaanglim9588]

This is so freaking good to watch. You really have an artistic eye first things.

[@tleigh4583]

I think that’s a potpourri dish 😊 too cute!

[@AnitaDay-ne3zr]

Love it. So cool. Making me feel like making one of these with my large sea shell 🐚 pot. ❤👍

[@emilyslabaugh4138]

Love this! I love my pings, they are so cute and fun! I have lots of carnivorous plants. My drosera flowers and produces seeds a few times a year. I sprinkled them on sphagnum moss and now have lots of them!

[@Aquamarine.Aubrey]

Fern! This looks so incredible 🎉💚🌱 This is my most favorite video in forever! Love it so much! I have about 5 or so pings all over my house. But now I need to make one of these!!!!!!!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@wildfern]

awww thank you so much! it's one of my fave videos i've made, so i'm really glad you liked it :)

[@stephanieramires7750]

I absolutely love your nails 💅 ❤

[@dora9368]

Her nails are always on point. I like them too

[@tonybezanson9625]

Brad's Greenhouse is my favorite carnivorous plant dealer.

[@48qwertyuiop50]

Hello! It’s very interesting to look at something you don’t understand at all! I would also like to have living plants. Thank you for the video!

[@laurenp.4880]

I've been looking forward to this video! Perfect timing! I haven't been able to keep up with your videos because work has been busy, but I conveniently have some time today 😊🌸

[@soniacosgrove]

Love this! I have 2 pings and will have to get a few more to do something like this. Such a great idea - Thank you!

[@lisaanglim9588]

Tho see little glass containers are so so cute.

[@carolinebaines8735]

I was able to get some lava rock last Thanksgiving when I was in Central Oregon. Thanks for the motivation to get my own pingdom done!

[@lisaanglim9588]

Awesome is a great word for it.

[@beverlysullivan1427]

I will definitely be trying this. Thank you for your inspiration 😊😊

[@tynatheunicorn]

That js so cuuute! 🌸🌸 I have some shallow glass dishes so I’m definitely going to be influenced by this and will use them for planty business 🌱🌸✨

[@BasiePlants]

Omg yas, just what I needed! I wanted to get some PInguiculas :D (also somehow the last thing I need 😂)

[@jetterasmussen6577]

It’s so cute 👌🏻😊 Remember to do a follow up when they have settled in.

[@wildfern]

thank you! i will :)

[@roux0609]

omg, I love this so, so, so, much! Thank you for the inspiration! This came out so cute. All my pings are currently in individual pots, and now I need to make a garden to display them together. Can't wait to see how they settle in. I use a zero water for all my carnivorous plants and they really thrive.

[@salamiguy]

my carnivorous plant order just came in to work today what perfect timing! I can't wait to plant them in the bog garden:)

[@wildfern]

ahh perfect!!

[@jmb2515]

I have a ego system bowl that I love and needs to redo because my plants have just grown crazy in it, but this might be a new project that I will try again thanks, Fern for sharing

[@chrisannhebert656]

[@Planty-Mandy]

I love it! I have some pings potted together in a little thrifted baking dish but I’m definitely going to have to use your suggestion for where to get pumice rocks for the next one!

[@psycheready6958]

[@StaceyHerewegrowagain]

Never heard of pingdom before

[@suziehall7413]

Too cute 🪴

[@pattituringan6745]

I have my pings in ikebana bowls, no soil and my pings are sitting on black lava rocks. I just keep the bowls filled to the top with water and the lava rocks wick up the water. I love the look of your pumice rock, I need to find some. Your pingdom is so cute.

[@clairepook2703]

Oh my it’s beautiful so cute pings seem to be hard to find in the uk I found a beautiful old glass bowl to make one of these but haven’t got any pings as of yet

[@dora9368]

Plants with Krystal has a venus fly trap. She has several shorts that showcase it😊

[@alxbritton]

I dont know for sure but I've been told that you can only use reverse water or distilled!!! Filtered apparently isn't good enough 😭 but it's nice seeing how lovely yours look just using regular water!!
