I don't think I've ever been in so much shock whilst unboxing rare plants. These plants were honestly just unbelievable and I am so so grateful to now have them in my collection. I'll be posting a planty update video within the next week to show you all how they're acclimating and adjusting to their new environment. Thank you again so so much to the wonderful Aroid Market!

I've been passing all her "fan" comments along and she's over the moon hahaha 💚

My first philodendron arrived today. A pink princess. And she is something else. I get the love!

[@TheJungleHaven]

Ooooh so exciting! 💚

[@anitaschneider1158]

You are very brave reporting and carrying her up the stairs to put her in her new spot. She is absolutely beautiful you deserve two thumbs up 👍👍for this one great job.

[@KeyushTheStuntDog]

I think you will struggle to get her on a train, especially if it gets busy and people bump into the leaves! I would hire a lorry if someone can drive it and transport her that way, probably laying down with the top of the pot taped up and supports around the pole to keep the leaves safe.

[@laurenervin1404]

This is EXACTLY what I'd do too. Just wrap and tape the pot up as tight as you can and lean her in whatever you can find to transport her in that's long enough😬🤞 I totally agree that I wouldn't trust her being squished up with loads of other people on a train...Good luck!🤞🤞💚

[@TheJungleHaven]

100000%. I didn't think it would be as difficult as it was (until I tried moving her upstairs haha). I'll be hiring a van for sure 💚

[@ashleyartus1193]

You should have your own series on the BBC or ch 4....total expert. Totally engaging..and so so satisfying as you tackle each plant issue. Lovely stuff. Thank you. 😊

[@TheJungleHaven]

That's so sweet of you, thank you 💚

[@WitchyHocusPocus]

Claire, could you wrap it up with cotton and cardboard, rent a moving truck, (UHAUL)and lay her down in the enclosed moving truck, with all of your other plants as well?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Yeah I think this is probably going to be the best bet! I think I was totally dreaming with trying to get her on a train haha 💚

[@StephanieShadell]

I just discovered your channel and watched this video. It was perfect in every way. I enjoyed it so much that I didn’t want it to end. From the living room to outside with your mom and then on to the hall just added to the charm and made your video stand out in the crowd. I can’t wait to watch more! ❤️

I love that variegated monstera! It’s huge! I recently used a tree branch to stake up my adansonii. I like the natural look

[@nicole__toni]

That is such a good idea!

[@TheJungleHaven]

I literally love that idea! I've been thinking I'd love to use some lovely driftwood/branches at some point to hang plants from 💚

[@Ambersoto90]

And here I was panicking over repotting my own variegated monstera of just short of a meter xD PS. love your mom

[@dorindafulton]

That is a beautiful plant and it's a big job repotting. I lost my Pink Princess mother plant but got cuttings. I'll upload a video of it later this week. Happy Gardening 🌿🌱☺️🤗

[@sarah9314]

I think your audio is perfectly fine! I wouldn’t worry about it.

[@stellatse3687]

Hello lovely! Could you hire a small van and secure the monstera with the rope hooks specifically for moving? I've seen that done before, especially for people who need their plants secure. A small van will offer a higher clearance so you wouldn't have to worry about it being squashed on the top or placing it sideways 🥰 x

[@TheJungleHaven]

Yes I'll definitely be hiring a van after this. Haven't looked into those rope hook, but I 100% will. Thank you 💚

[@erikawest4812]

I just gave you an " uh huh" look when you said you think you are done getting plants 🤭😜

[@TheJungleHaven]

Hahahah! Yeah you're totally right... I had a splurge at the weekend 😂

[@ritajunee]

@@TheJungleHaven So did I hahah. I stopped looking at plants online and in store for about a month and then just dropped $150 online and $50 in store! haha

[@codielane9787]

I think your audio is great really!

[@the_viper_leo]

nice one! looking forward to growing my monstera to that size too which is currently recovering from root rot! haha

[@TheJungleHaven]

Fingers crossed it bounces back soon and starts giving you some awesome growth 💚

[@anitaschneider1158]

I watch all your videos, and I have never had any problem hearing you, I don't think you need a microphone.

[@sylviagutierrez7676]

She looks great Like a Queen !! If you a renting a truck to move out, put her in the tallest box you can find or build it yourself with cardboard, And it helps to place it in a taller pot too.. I moved in April With 250 +plants and all made it... Drive very Slow too!! Good luck!!💚🪴🌵🌱

[@TheJungleHaven]

Amazing, thanks so much for the tip! Glad to know your move went well with so many plants 💚

[@AWatts]

I just found you and subscribed because you're just so pleasant to listen to! Is that a Thai Constellation monstera?

[@TheJungleHaven]

That's so kind of you to say, thank you! No it's a Monstera Albo Borsigiana 💚

[@mandyt7257]

enjoyable video.

[@TheJungleHaven]

Thank you 💚

[@Justplants]

You can also use epoxy glue on the moss pole! 😊

[@TheJungleHaven]

Ah, thanks for the tip 💚

[@heathersink2339]

My husband has a KZbin channel and uses a microphone and I honestly thought you had one! You might just have a nice talking voice and it carries/projects well. Maybe, when you make videos in your new location-the room’s acoustics might not be as nice as this one where you normally record in. But so far, had me fooled and I thought you already used one ;)

[@TheJungleHaven]

Ah, that's so good to know, thank you! Often when I move back from the camera I feel like I'm shouting 😂💚

[@DollyMat]

I think you could try temporarily de-polling the Albo and loosely wrap the vines in a circular motion inside the pot that way you may be able to carry it yourself or still get a friend to help you. The pole can be carried by hand or broken down if not glued together. I use soil ninja products also. The worm castings are fantastic but find their shipping price quite expensive.

[@TheJungleHaven]

Ooooh I don't know if I could do that (I'd be too scared of accidentally snapping her). I think hiring a long van is going to be the best bet... EEEEEP! 💚

[@DollyMat]

@@TheJungleHaven True I forget Monstera vines get quite hard not soft like pothos. I'm struggling to get them on a moss poll

[@codielane9787]

Jute? Is that the name of the string?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Yes!!

[@lukari8942]

I’m from Texas (south TX here in the US states) and girl, the weather be unpredictable.

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

Considering how long the internodes are, I would honestly just cut it in half and propagate the top to make a fuller plant. Monstera grow so fast anyway, it'll get back to the same hight in no time. It might encourage more variegation in the new growth as well, making it a win/win/win situation.

[@PinkKahuna]

I'm not sure if you can drive or not since you mentioned the train. But it's maybe an idea to hire a van (you could always ask a friend to drive it or hire a man with a van) and then transport a lit of your plants in one go. If you get a big enough van you could lay this monstera down and secure it that way.

[@TheJungleHaven]

Yeah you're totally right - I thought the train would be the easier option but after this I think I'm going to have to rent a van 💚

[@danielm.1441]

What's that at 15:19 crawling along the floor behind the broken pot?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Oh god I don't even want to look... I tried to get rid of a spider before I filmed this but lost him, so maybe he was sneaking about behind me 😂

[@juliefoster8100]

Audio is fine😊x

[@anndriggers6660]

You should get in touch with Kat from Adansonnia channel. That happened to her on several of her anthuriums and she apparently chopped all the roots off and put them in water and they are all doing very well...so far.

[@TheJungleHaven]

Amazing, thanks so much, I'll check her channel out 💚

[@DieDieEla]

Hi, i read never to cut or trimm airial roots because its weekend the plant. What is your experience?

[@TheJungleHaven]

I think there's some truth in that, but I've found that the occasional trim, and then making sure the remaining a.roots have lots of moisture and nutrients still keeps the plant going strong 💚

[@tracyjohnson3596]

Dont think you could fit her on a train 😢 i just chopped mine got 7 cuttings im going to pot them back in to make a fuller plant 🍀🌱🌿

[@TheJungleHaven]

You're so right, I know now there's no way I'm getting her on a train 😂

[@katbattt]

Popped this on while I did some plant chores of my own and picked up my calathea mosaica just as you asked "what was the last plant you killed" and found it has root rot 😂

[@TheJungleHaven]

Ahaha oh nooo! I hope you manage to save it 💚

[@katbattt]

@@TheJungleHaven I think I caught it early so fingers crossed. It's after spraying it for thrips so i must have been overzealous with the shower 😂

[@michaela467]

I love your videos and energy. I feel like your audio, and video for that matter is just fine! I dont think you need to/should spend money on more equipment right now. You're doing great and I can hear and see you loud and clear !🤗

[@TheJungleHaven]

💚💚💚💚

[@glen4075]

Hi Claire, have you propagated a dischidia oianthe? Have you any tips for me if you have. Tried twice quite recently in orchid bark and sphagnum moss, but failed both times. 🤨 Great video by the way 👍🪴

[@TheJungleHaven]

I've actually never owned that plant, but just by looking at it, my gut would say sphagnum moss is the way to go... Just googled it and I know it says to simply lay the plant on top, but I'd personally submerge it (several nodes to be on the safe side) and keep it somewhere fairly warm (making sure moss always stays damp), humid and light 💚

[@glen4075]

@@TheJungleHaven thank you, going to give it another try 🤞. I have to be honest and I think I let the cuttings dry out too much 🤔. If they take I will let you know. I love mine ❤️

Hey Can l Please ask where you get the Liquid Fertiliser that you use,? The Gold Leaf fertiliser, or do you have a link for it..? I'm in Australia & would love to order some... Thanks. xxx 👍❤🪴🙂🇦🇺🐨🦘

[@TheJungleHaven]

So I get it off their website www.liquidgoldleaf.co.uk but I'm pretty sure they have retailers worldwide. If you're on IG you should drop them a message, they're lovely and super helpful 💚

[@Arcangeline]

I hate to say it but I think it would be far better to chop a few feet off her to transport her safely than risk having an accident en route. You may be able to lay her down if you get a long enough van but its still risky and she's definitely too big for the train. Chop and prop and soon you'll have two 10 feet tall monstera

[@TheJungleHaven]

I just don't think I can do it haha. I'm thinking renting a long van and driving soooooo carefully (even if it takes me hours to get there and I have thousands of cars trundling along behind me) 😂

[@abbeyhill94]

The thing I’d be worried about with having her where the plant is now, is that the sun is going to absolute fry her leaves

[@TheJungleHaven]

It doesn't receive too much direct sun apart from in the evening luckily 💚
