CLICKED FOR THE HAIR, STAYED FOR THE PLANTS. So cute, Alice!!!!!

[@lisaanglim9588]

Oh her hair looks so cute. Thanks for mentioning it. I’m so dense at times. I didn’t even notice.

[@youdontevengrowhere]

Ahhh thank you Anah!!! ❤️❤️

[@nefertitisroyalsoapery]

Love your hair Alice! Literally no matter what you do with your hair, you look like a goddess 😍😍 beautiful plants too lol

[@coffee2962]

Love your new hairstyle ❤ ❤ The Burle Marx flame with the fenestrations Ugh to die for 😮

[@mjhawley5848]

I keep a ton of succulents and some hoya, including linearis, I’m constantly having the mealies but i definitely always have it under control. I just fill up a spray bottle with water and pump in about 8-10 pumps of blue dawn dish soap, mix up and saturate that sucker every other watering, including the soil. Leave on about 30 seconds and rinse so it’s not very bubbly anymore. It dissolves those crusty little suckers instantly, gently cleans your plant and I’m pretty sure it deters them the more you do it. Much gentler than alcohol and less gross than neem. Recommend!

How our tastes change in the plant world. Hoya Linearis is one of my favourites. I read that Pure crop 1 is great for pests so I bought it. I had Mealy Bug on a heart leaf Philodendron. I ran it under water then spray every leaf back and front and placed it in another room. I sprayed it 2 more times and no more MG.

Loving your hair i think is the shortest i have ever seen you cut it. I always cut my hair around the summer yearly is easier to manage. When is so long I don’t bother blowing dry it just too much hassle so i just let it air dry. Also hair just get everywhere on the floor and i have to hover the floors like everyday. Really enjoyed seeing your other plants in your living space. And different genes aswell since i am not a fan of Anthurium’s and adroids much. Aww Doug is so big now still so adorable. 🥰 Happy 1st birthday 🎂

[@pedrocarvalho6391]

The cabinet looks great! And yeah, I definitely don't recommend Aroid mix for Phalaenopsis in a hugh humidity environment... depending on your humidity you can literally just keep it in coarse Bark with a tiny bit of moss... Phalaenopsis have thicc roots and therefore store more water in them, making them easier to overwater... treat it like a clarinervium, just with coarser substrate

[@lovesyorkies3395]

Your hair looks so cute! Love it!

[@ztszebra]

YOUR HAIR IS SO PRETTY!!!!

[@Aquamarine.Aubrey]

I love this video so much! It was great seeing your non-anthuriums! Your hair looks fab! I'm pretty sure I'd die without central air 🥵

[@72Jazzy]

Your hair is so cute Alice. Love it!😍

[@youdontevengrowhere]

Thank you Lisa!! 🥹

[@lindaedwards4632]

The last month has been very stinking hot in 🇨🇦. Wow Doug is so big now 😲

[@lisaanglim9588]

I like the plant you put into the bark.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Air conditioning used to be rare in the states but we started getting heat domes where it stays upper 90’s to low hundreds. Too hot to live without a/c

[@PlantyGeri]

I haven’t started the video and I had to pause to say, your hair looks fantastic!! Inspiring to cut my own hair too cause this summer is playing no games ❤

[@heli9677]

Hey Alice, I’m sure you’ve received really great tips but the phragmipedium and the Paphiopedilum orchids unlike the schilleriana are terrestrial orchids and don’t mind soil as much where Phalaenopsis live bare rooted on trees which is probably why the comments differed on the medium. There are so many genus in the orchid family too, where some live in the ground, some on trees, and some live in constant running water, some live in hot humid jungles, whereas some live in cold cloud rainforests. Some also bloom all year round and some need temperature triggers to simulate season. All the orchids you have couldn’t be any more different in care :P With phragmipediums, depending on the species (I haven’t looked your hybrid up), can be lithophytes and live with their roots dangling in running rivers so I have mine potted in medium coarse perlite and bark that sits in a reservoir of distilled water at all times. I never technically water it, but I flush it twice a week and refill the reservoir when it gets low. The terrestrial Paphiopedilum, I treat almost like a regular houseplant when it comes to watering just in a more bark-y rather than heavy soil mix and the Phalaenopsis schilleriana lives bare rooted on trees and get watered via rainfall on them, so in your home, the medium of choice would essentially only be a way of keeping humidity around the roots, think lots of air pockets. You’ve taught me so much about Anthuriums and I’m so glad you’re entering into my favourite plant family! I really recommend herebutnot on KZbin, he’s fantastic!

[@Smokeypoint40]

Cute hair !!!! ❤

[@lilmissbeats]

Hello Alice! You got a haircut! I hope it feels as lovely as it looks :D Thank you for the video, I was literally wondering how your living room plants are and then BOOM!!!!

[@lisaanglim9588]

Your living room shelves look really nice.

[@lonelarsen9226]

BIG haircut , you are looking good ❤️

[@ttschrock7126]

Alice, what type of Cycad is that you showed us with the three leaves? Just stunning!!!!

[@lisaanglim9588]

My dog drinks like Huxley. Quite neat.

[@maryperry5910]

Miss orchid girl has had a video about this orchid. She has or had it in her collection. It's very cute❤

[@shannabowolin4701]

A little late but you might want to try Manu’s Orchids in Quabec.

[@LeafyConversations]

LOL! 😆 If I had a dime for every time I thought I hit record. 😂

[@kimdeline4590]

Hey! I just purchased my first orchid from Wuhoo yesterday...the floodgates have opened! LOL. Did you talk to Bryan? I bet he could acquire one for you if he doesn't have one. I know that shipping from TX to CAD must suck though. Stopping by to hang out with Pau, Josh, and us tonight? Hope to see you there! BTW - I'm DelineTradingCo on Palm Street.

[@lisaanglim9588]

How do you get mealy bugs out of the compacta? They hit mine and killed it or it was so bad liking that I threw it out. 😢

[@youdontevengrowhere]

I’ve been spraying it all over and trying to get it in the leaf folds with 99% alcohol and spraying down with water after leaving it a bit to melt the bugs - I haven’t been able to completely eradicate mealies this way but it’s been keeping it fairly controlled

[@lisaanglim9588]

@@youdontevengrowhere Thank you. If I ever decide to get a compacts again I’ll keep that in mind. I do have 90 % alcohol. I sprayed with that and tried to get in the crevasses. I’ve still got mealies in my house. They pop up every now and then. I wonder tv if I had rinsed the plant afterwards it might have survived. Hmm 🤔

[@lisaanglim9588]

This one 17:25 is so cute.

[@gypsylee333]

Is that a dioon edule in the thumbnail? That plant was on my wishlist, I like whatever the thumbnail is.

[@youdontevengrowhere]

Yes it is!

[@michelleyu]

omg your hair!!!!!

[@lisaanglim9588]

I was wondering why you had moss back there. I would think it’s messy.

[@youdontevengrowhere]

It is messy 😆

[@lisaanglim9588]

Maybe aroid mix with the leca in the bottom and a reservoir

[@charmingmarina]

Longerrrrr videos pleaseeeeeeeeee

[@jayplantman]

The orchid you showed is actually called Cucumerinum because the leaves look like cucumbers. lol Cucumerinum is derived from the latin cucumis, which is cucumber. Also, what is the full taxonomic name of the fern-like cycad you have? I'm SMITTEN.

[@youdontevengrowhere]

After I filmed it hit me that they look like pickles and that’s why I immediately fell in love with it 😂 Also the cycad is a dioon edule!

[@lisaanglim9588]

You’re gonna need a pole extension pretty soon.

[@Dieppaloveplants]

Looove ur hair looki very cute on you

[@lisaanglim9588]

Doug has got quite big.

[@djhiggins4431]

That hoya I don't know how you spell it but herosherie is how you pronounced it maybe? Would you mind giving me the proper spelling I love it and would really like to find one

[@youdontevengrowhere]

Hoya yvesrocheri!

[@djhiggins4431]

@youdontevengrowhere thank you so much lol I never would have figured that out

[@72Jazzy]

Think its hoys yves rocheri 😊

[@lisaanglim9588]

6:03 love that plant but say that name three times real fast. Lol 😂

[@wajidlohar2184]

job me

[@oliviadrake9980]

Paphs can handle a more soil like substrate. They aren’t epiphytes. Phals NEVER put in a soil like mixture. Your best bet is sphagnum or bark or a combo of the 2.

[@kswashin2]

Oh no Alice. It sounds like you are getting into orchids. I started getting into orchids ~1 year ago and went from having 1 to now owning 23. Same thing with anthuriums, this hobby is dangerous.
