potting M.Adansonii Mint, Philodendron Majestic + Verrucosum | easy moss poles | diy aroid mix

[@jessicabellone913]

Lol girl, I got myself a Verrucosum seedling from The Green Escape and it was so cute. It had about 8 leaves already but it was not happy after repotting and went downhill fast! I lost every leaf but 1 and it only was left with a node and a bit of stem lol. I filled one of those air layering plastic bubble containers with moss and put the plant inside hoping to save it. It freaking worked! It has 3 leaves now and I already put it on a moss pole so that it gets used to climbing. I can’t believe I was able to save such a teeny tiny piece of plant. Moral of the story is don’t ever give up on a plant! If it still has green and it’s not mushy, it’s always worth a shot!

I love the green escape they always package their plants so well and I’ve never lost a plant.

Love this!! I say the same thing- plants are so resilient! 💚

[@lisaanglim9588]

Love those little scoops they include in the packet. It is pretty nice that they include them.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Cute cute cute!! The adensonii is so cute allotted up.

[@lisaanglim9588]

The verrucosum looks really nice. 👍🏻

[@lisaanglim9588]

You’ve done great with wet sticks. I only got two of seven wet sticks to grow roots and leaves. And I’ve still hit them. They are scindapsis. Your plants look great.

Wow! What a surprise this early in the morning. Good morning Claudia. Not even 9:00 here in Oregon

[@iamclaudiaq]

Good morning! I missed posting yesterday so I wanted to get it out asap 😊

[@lisaanglim9588]

@@iamclaudiaqI appreciate when Planty videos come out early in the morning. I can watch while I watch the Today Show. Otherwise it’s political podcasts.

[@lisaanglim9588]

It will be great when they start growing into the moss poles.

[@lisaanglim9588]

I always fill my moss pole right away then when it grows it’s steady there for the roots.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Two is plenty when they get bigger. You’ll have a huge, Unmanageable plant on one pole.

[@iamclaudiaq]

Oops! I’m sure you’re right!

great episode

[@iamclaudiaq]

Thank you so much for watching 🫶

[@Coastallife-r9j]

My mint adonsonii has very wonky leaves also. I have struggled with it, so I put it outside. It has 4 "nice" leaves put it is not rooting in the moss pole. I would put 3 on a pole for a nice full plant. Thanks fir sharing your lovely plants!!!

[@iamclaudiaq]

Thank you so much for watching! Try grafting tape on the top nodes to encourage it to root into the pole. Good luck!!

[@Coastallife-r9j]

@@iamclaudiaq thank you!!! I will give that a try.

[@lisaanglim9588]

I find wet sticks hard to grow. I had only 2/6 scindapsis grow any roots or leaves. But I got one exotica out of it and a jade satin.

How do you decide when propagating or rehabbing weather to use perlite, moss, water, or soil?

[@mdt6176]

Ooooo, i felt your pain when your plant fell, moss pole gone.😢😢😢😢

[@iamclaudiaq]

Still can’t believe I did that 🤦‍♀️

[@jessicabates4482]

I just repotted my Verrucosum after propping her in a greenhouse like environment for MONTHS to get her aerial roots growing!! I put her on a moss pole and she’s in terrible shock and I honestly don’t think the leaves will recover 😢idk what to do she’s my favourite!😭

Do you make your own pon?

[@iamclaudiaq]

Only if I have to, aka lechuza is sold out 🙃

[@lisaanglim9588]

@ I hear others say that too.

[@kristathompson9888]

How is Hunter doing? Are his ears better?

[@lisaanglim9588]

I don’t like moss poles either. The wet moss feels gross as you squeeze out the water 💦

[@lisaanglim9588]

You know the algae will not hurt your plants and when you pot them up, they’ll be out of sight? Right?

[@iamclaudiaq]

I do, I’d just rather get rid of it for my own sake haha

[@lisaanglim9588]

@ it won’t harm you either. I think if it as out of sure out of mind. It can’t grow in the dark.
