RESURRECTION PLANT! (The Rose of Jericho)

[@sunshinecarnivores1919]

Bought three from a store in my local mall that caters to practitioners of wicca and other new age religions. Because these plants are used in various rituals. I know I'm two years too late, but you can't leave these plants in water they could get moldy. Letting them dry out to their tumble weed like form is a must.

Jan 1, 2024: Thanks, I just received a small one from ebay. Your demo helped! Happy New Year, Kate

[@asmrtpop2676]

To clarify: you have the false rose of jericho, sometimes just called rose of jericho, which is also called the resurrection plant. The other plant you’re talking about that is also called “rose of jericho” is NOT a resurrection plant and while they are also sold they will NOT unfurl or green up because they are dead when sold.

[@WamwaRoberts]

Where can l get the true rose of jerico in uganda.

[@austinmiller1427]

Awesome! It’s a fun experiment. Let me know how it grows for you!

[@selinaramirez7650]

Bennet Riley will do.

[@andreakingsberry9885]

Thank you for the info, a friend had one and was being accused of being a "witch" .😅 Thanks for clearing her name. Video was very informative and now we know how to care for an amazing species.😊

[@janetgentry1197]

Thank you for the demonstration and information on the Rose of Jericho plant. And the asides of your pets, animal and plant alike are interesting and make your video enjoyable to watch! I subscribed because of the way you come across as a human being..easy going. I'm the same way and I like to see, hear and learn from like minds.

[@WamwaRoberts]

Thanks rose of Jericho for the promising dream,may l have more dreams

[@tuuurtles]

Pretty neat! I've managed to resurrect compressed dry New Zealand sphagnum moss by keeping it wet for almost a year (for propagation of other plants in it)

[@bennetriley1988]

That’s pretty cool. Maybe I’ll give that a try. I love moss, and I’m always trying to grow it because it looks so good in terrariums.

[@chadantamoroso8243]

Yes, that is the False Rose of Jericho.

[@bennetriley1988]

Yes I figured as much.

[@dedrastokes3009]

Its a real one i have them my whoke life

[@LauraMartinez-fv4rf]

I’m not sure how I missed this video before but it just came up on my KZbin feed lol 😂 That is such a cool plant!! I’ve seen them at local plant nurseries and wondered about them. Do you still have it and if so how is it doing?

[@jbeltran6558]

Nice video! Do you have a follow up video? I am curious on what happened when you used the leca. Thank you!

[@kd-b7340]

The plant in this video is the "false" rose of Jericho. It's one of two types of ROJ. The "true" ROJ is a different species called Anastatica hierochuntica.

[@bennetriley1988]

Yes I actually address that in the video! Maybe you didn’t watch all the way through to hear that part. 🙂

[@africansnowqueenqueen3296]

What does the real one look like, pls?

[@msb562]

It's found all over the middle east ,Africa Egypt ,the Sahara Iran and India as well.

[@bennetriley1988]

Interesting. Good to know, thanks for the info.

[@NoMercyXtreme]

Pretty neat! Got one for myself. Any update on this?

[@sekhmet741]

I'm Confused. Can you help me? I have a rose of Jericho I just bought. The first 4 days was fine but now it seems like she is loosing leaves. What could be wrong? I read someone said refill and change water everyday. And water her with distilled water. I pick her up and leaves are coming off.

[@AlbinoAxolotl]

Were you able to keep this plant alive after the fact? I’m interested in selaginellas and was thinking of putting one in my terrarium if it seems like they’re sold with enough roots to survive.

[@bennetriley1988]

Hi! I haven’t been taking the best care of it actually lol. I let it dry out and go dormant, then I soak it and revive it. Then it dries out and happens all over again. Lol. I probably should have potted it properly. Maybe then it would grow consistently. I still just have it in a dish of pebbles. There’s are selaginellas that are more hardy and vigorous, maybe give one of them a try.

@@bennetriley1988 thank you for the informative video. I am trying my luck with one now. I am hoping it is not a dud.

[@bennetriley1988]

@@giberrys347 oh good! thanks so much for watching! It’s a fun experiment to try. Let me know how it does for you!

[@giberrys347]

@@bennetriley1988 I have two and they are doing beautifully ! Always love a miracle. I was kind of worried, as it took hours for mine to come back to life. The edges are still brown and curly, but they are so pretty! I am in the dead of winter where I live and watching this was truly fun and fascinating Thanks again! I plan to send some to my grandkids.

[@orchidgarden3124]

Really cool!

[@bennetriley1988]

Thanks! It looks even nicer the next day. I’ll show it off in my next video.

[@tamiekahollis5117]

did you end up planting it? Ive never planted them before. Granted i use them for spiritual purposes but just curious how it worked out planting it?

[@titashaanythingunderthesun7913]

Have you tried propagating it now?

[@jokennedy2943]

Wow 😮

[@bennetriley1988]

It looks even better today! It’s pretty wild. I’ll have to show it again in my next video because it opened up A LOT more over night.

[@maggiecaceres5376]

Really cool 😎 😃😂🤩🤩🥰🥰

[@bennetriley1988]

Thanks for watching Maggie!!

[@nkkny1]

That was cool

[@bennetriley1988]

Thanks for watching Nicole!

[@titashaanythingunderthesun7913]

How do you propagate it

[@bennetriley1988]

Good question, I’m not sure really. I imagine you could take cuttings and try to root it, but I haven’t tried.

[@riccortez1997]

Where did you buy it?

[@bennetriley1988]

I got it from some random seller on amazon. But it seems like there pretty widely available. Just google it and you’ll find one for sale somewhere. 😊

[@TheQueenLioness100]

Hello

[@bennetriley1988]

Hi!

[@dedrastokes3009]

Its not from asia its from middle east the jerico desert please research before u make a video

[@bennetriley1988]

Hi Dedra, actually, many parts of the Middle East are considered part of Asia, based of the research I did making this video. Thanks for your comment though
