Philodendron Verrucosum Fuss-Free Care Tips | Grow verrucosum & its hybrids in your home with ease

This video is brought to you by POPULAR DEMAND. Many struggle with verrucosum, so this video breaks down care hacks and tips I have learned over the years that allow mew to grow this beautiful species, along with its hybrids, in my NYC home. My humidity can drop as low as 25% in the winter and only reaches about 50% in the summer. And yet my verrus continue to THRIVE! The verrus featured in this video are:
P. verrucosum (Common Form)
P. verrucosum (Small Form)
P. verrucosum "Amazon Sunset"
P. verrucosum "Dark"
P. verrucosum X melanochrysm
P. verrucosum X sodiroi

Great video. I'll try this idea. So far I had no problems with veru. I live in Asia and humidity is always given. Veru is a diva, but what I observed if you don't give them that special attention, they'll just thrive(as long as your root system is well established). What I did is just leave it alone and not to give that special attention as others think that they have to give with their veru. It thrives and climb on it's own. But I have to admit, it's roots and leaves are a bit delicate (especially when you're repotting it!) It's a guarantee you'll see the effect on the leaves a day or two after.

Thank you for these tips! Ive been struggling with my Verru since I got it. I'm definitely gonna give these tips a shot!

[@plantgayforlife]

YOU GOT THIS!

[@juliewagner9862]

this is so helpful, I just got a veru in a mystery box, and was panicing I was going to have to get a cloche or a humidty dome of some sort for it, as I don't usually pick plants that require higher humidty being from MN we also have low humidty in the winter. I will try these tips, and fingers crossed she survives!

[@plantgayforlife]

You got this!😁

[@uncutplants5613]

So true! I'm a no drainage gal myself & I couldn't agree more with your methods! Great video!!

[@plantgayforlife]

reppin for NO DRAINAGE!!!

[@luciansteph]

How does this video not have more views! It’s excellent! Thank you!

[@plantgayforlife]

Glad you liked it!😄

I threw my 2-leaf verro cutting in a grow-out bin roughly three years ago; I had a really bad infestation of whitefly and root aphids, and went nuclear by tearing apart my vivariums, sanitizing everything with soap and bleach, and isolating survivors in their own bins to watch for re-infection. Other than the lack of vertical space, the verro is doing really well and filled the whole container. No drainage at all! So I completely believe you, and really want to try this method! I now do a 2-4 month isolation procedure on all new plants, but keeping this guy isolated is probably not the worst idea.

[@plantgayforlife]

Amazing! They can certainly grow in ambient conditions so long as the moisture is there and ample. Honestly whatever we do that helps them thrive, we just gotta keep doing it!

[@lyndseymoye12]

[@kaybeepal]

I'm waiting for my Vera to ship and feel better prepared for it's arrival after seeing this video, thanks for the tips!!

[@plantgayforlife]

Glad I could help!😁

[@fawnvigil6727]

Awesome vid!! I’m trying all this now just got a new Verucosum fantasy it’s so beautiful 🤤🤤

[@plantgayforlife]

verrus really do reward you with their beauty!

[@Ajay.Plants]

The way my verru is my easiest plant. Everyone says theyre so fussy mine didnt even wilt when i forgot to water it and it was bone dry for 2 months

[@plantgayforlife]

Your verru is a WARRIOR.

[@KelleysIsland-xt3rh]

I wish I would have seen this a few days ago! I just imported a verru Amazon Sunset from Ecua and it was very droopy upon arrival. I soaked it in water for 24 hrs then put it in my aroid mix out of habit. If it doesn’t make a turn around quickly, I’ll try the no drainage route. I keep many of my anthuriums in no drainage thanks to one of your older videos but just didn’t think of it for this one for some reason. Thank you!

[@plantgayforlife]

amazon sunset has been hard for me to rehab too, hopefully those roots bounce back!

[@nambisan7]

Great video on verru care just when I needed it! 👌👌👌❤️

[@plantgayforlife]

awesome! glad the video came when ya needed it :)

[@surgeinc1]

Just received my first Verro and wasn’t sure about the substrate or drainage. Been doing the “no drainage” thing for awhileand my plants are loving it.

[@plantgayforlife]

Great to hear!

[@parama9442]

Can you do a video like this for Philodendron El choco red?? Ya boy is strugggggling with the new leaves getting stuck

[@plantgayforlife]

Spray them with water and they’ll pop out on their own!😊

[@hennesseyme9112]

I have not been able to have leaves on these because they keep getting infested. I have tried so many treatment.

[@plantgayforlife]

They are a magnet for pests. Do you treat the plant weekly or only when you see infestations?

[@GlassHousesConservatory]

This video is what’s up! Everything perfectly explained!! Encouraging, comical at times and extremely helpful, insightful and clever in its making and narrating! Love! Watched it three times in a row 🥹🪴🪴🪴💚🌿

[@plantgayforlife]

thank you so much!🥰

[@ryanjamesleegoodman]

What about just planting in water ?

[@plantgayforlife]

You can certainly root philodendron cuttings in nutrient water:)

[@ginakapuscinski9698]

Thank you so much, Jake!

[@fosterfoster9913]

Azamax is a great system treatment for mites

[@judyperkins4509]

Loved it , u are good

[@williamwong1902]

Do you let your Verru climb up a pole?

[@plantgayforlife]

I choose to let mine trail and stay small. But they can climb and get BIG leaves

[@aplantprocess]

Great advice!

[@valerieskillman2934]

[@plantgayforlife]

haha! thanks for watching the vid!

[@skyangelthefan]

Yyyeessss!!! 🙌👍🙌🪴💜🪴

[@StanWatt.]

I, too, hate, cringe when I see people 'help' a leaf out like it happens in the wild jungles.

[@plantgayforlife]

EXACTLY, the rain and humidity helps it i nature, so just spraying it gets the job done!
