[@katherinenightingale2205]

YES!!

[@luna-vlog]

I hope you make this "emergency" a series! Tim is amazing, the way he picked up certain behaviors and words from you is adorable :D It was fun to see your collaboration and your "ex" plants from a different perspective. I totally love it!

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks so much :) he’s trying to take the piss when he repeats my ‘catch phrases’ but it’s kinda cute :D

[@nichollsg79]

His overhead window is soooooo AMAZING ❤

[@sydneyplantguy]

I know... the jealousy is real !!! :D

[@ericaeschenbacher4921]

What a fun episode! Thanks Tim for having SPG Dr. make a house call in your beautiful home. 😻

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks :)

[@kdhalliday-bf6wh]

the constant shade throwing in this video has me weakkkk😂😂

[@sydneyplantguy]

Hehe we love it :D

[@phunk8607]

Poor Tim, your banter are brutal... lol

[@sydneyplantguy]

Survival of the fittest :D haha

[@mallorythornton1637]

Double thanks because I always watch SPG on KZbin on my Samsung TV and it’s impossible to support/contribute and this was a total Master Class!! I’m in Enterprise software sales with waaay too many plants. SPG gives me perspective, inspiration, and much needed reality checks.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you so much :) I really appreciate it :)

[@annylindsay5358]

Tim's window looks perfect for self heading philodendrons! Keeping their leaves in all direction shape.

[@sydneyplantguy]

💯💯

[@j.b.abraham4175]

I LOVE Tim's windows! What a beautiful place. Also, him being a part of one of your videos is so great! Your plants looked great, Tim. Jan, you imparting your knowledge and experience to your friend was really helpful and sweet.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :))

[@Carey.S75]

Tim is so lucky having a plant doctor on hand 😂 It was great to finally see his home and plant collection, and he's doing a great job caring for his plants 👏👏👏

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you:) he helps out a lot so it’s just fair I gove him a hand with his plants :)

[@Planty-Mandy]

We love Tim! Great to finally see & hear more from him! Also his house is AMAZING with all those windows and how it leads directly out into the garden. Gorgeous.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Absolute house goals !!! :)

[@hesherette]

THE INTRO!!! lol so great! Tim's place is perfect for plants, thanks for all of the helpful info + care tips!

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you:)

[@bellalexi2085]

You are a complete hoot! I predict you will get a TV series in the future. Take Tim with you! “The Odd Plant Couple?”

[@sydneyplantguy]

Hehe thank you :) if you know any TV producers, send them my way :D

[@teartamother1892]

Well said

[@themisto57]

Very cool tour. Don't feel bad Tim I write everything down on paper too. Can't break old habits lol.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Haha I have a paper based calendar myself :D thanks !

[@LyndaMargaret]

I had a lovely afternoon listening to you both as I potted among my own plants. Thanks for the company.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Happy growing :)

[@Yambataller]

Tim is a great guy. I would subscribe to his channel

[@Kim-cv5ks]

Tim is so sweet. I'd love to see more of you two together. 😊

[@sydneyplantguy]

You will :)

[@aimimamimimi4931]

Big thanks to Tim for letting us see his lovely plants! ☺️This was super educational I learnt so many tips and tricks to up my plant game 💕💕

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks :)

[@nomzyyyy]

we want more video with Tim! Very nice video

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks :)

[@sdetube]

Tim's house is amazing. I love all the windows. What a great place for plants - and Tim.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Absolute #homegoals :)

[@joanjudah3482]

I loved this video!💯 I hope this becomes a series.🤞🏽 Also, your friendship with Tim is so genuine. You both are hilarious, and really compliment eachother. Plus, how cool is it to have one of your good friends live so near?!💚

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks !! So good .. it's just a 2 min walk away woohoo :)

[@RayaCeleste]

It's the run for me 😂😅..OMG. Needed that laugh.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Yay!! Cheers!

[@Gkrissy]

When you said clean leaves, I said less disease. That would be a cute saying. Haha! Right before Tim said the comment it's not a competition, I said the same thing. I know you guys are playing and having fun. I was just thinking of getting a splendid, inspired by you. I might try that with putting a plant in my bathroom tub corner.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Haha that is a good saying :)

[@Gkrissy]

@@sydneyplantguy I laughed when you called Tim lazy and then I thought, if I had a planty friend like you with all those nice tree fern fibre and goodies, I would be so happy and semi lazy. I am going to a planty event on Saturday and hope to buy some nice anthuriums and philodendrons.

[@EverythingWithToshaK]

Tim is stepping out on the scene! I love this!💚 Your content was always good and even tho having to move back to back was annoying for you it seems like it’s bringing out so much more from you! It’s been Sydney Plant Guy 2.0 lately🙌🏽 and I’m loving it! 💚🌱😊

[@sydneyplantguy]

That’s so nice to hear :) thank you!!

[@blackgirldiary2363]

Awesome to finally get a glimpse of Tim! Thanks SPG :)

[@johnpatterson9219]

Tim’s apartment is Dope! Love all the skylight! I think Tim is doing quite well with his plants and will soon be up to “expert” level with Dr. Jan’s (a.k.a. Dr. SPG’s) help! Bravo, guys!!! 👏🏻

[@sydneyplantguy]

When we inspected the place my jaw dropped when I saw the windows :D haha that amazing natural light is 80% of the reason he bought the place :D Thank you:)

[@jangsy33]

@@sydneyplantguyI was lusting after the folding patio door and window by the kitchen, almost felt like an outdoor kitchen. Jan, you are truly a gifted communicator! How was that 1.5 hours? It was informative, entertaining and enlightening!❤. And I, so side with Tim on your meticulousness. 😂

[@ButterflyLoverGirl]

This was such a great video to wake up to! Jan and Timmy make a great comedic team when talking about plants 😂 💚🌱 Love this!

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks :)

[@allisonfleming3390]

Jan, the beginning was hysterical! Loved the banter between you two. Big thanks to Tim for letting us into his home 💚

Tim's sass is PHENOMENAL 🤌🏻

[@bewhateveritis]

You two are so fun together!

[@mbenavi2]

So many great moments in this video! But one of my favorites was after Tim said he was diligent and then you said "Yeah" and the look on your face at 1:20:29 😂. Of course loved seeing all the plants and your great advice, but really enjoyed seeing the two of you have a great time. Thanks for taking us along.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :)

[@jayenneB]

Wow, Dr. Jan is really in his element giving his moss and media lecture 😊

[@carolstuff]

Awesome vid Jan! I know Tim prefers being behind the camera, but he appears quite comfortable today; you’re the plant-Batman & Tim is the plant Robin. Really enjoyed it & thanks for sharing Jan!

[@sydneyplantguy]

Haha I love that :D thank you :) (P.S.: more of a Marvel guy here so can I be Ironman please?)

[@carolstuff]

Absolutely SPG Ironman!😄

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you:)!

[@lesliehughes9382]

Can we talk about the bathrobe that Tim has so perfectly arranged on the end of the couch...? Is this part of his normal setup or did he do this just for the video? 😂 😂 😂

[@timgarner1957]

This episode was really informative with Mr Tim along side of yah..his questions and your answers went a long way.. Love his apartment.. That was too funny with you high stepping to the rescue! Thanks for another great episode

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :)

[@shermich90]

Tim is so lucky to get your extra plants plus you also help him maintain them.

[@sydneyplantguy]

He helps me a lot so that’s the least I can do:)

[@nikkicanavan7354]

That was a fantastic video! It was really nice to see Timmie's place and I am sure you are excited to help him fill his place up with more gorgeous plants! Bravo! Also I feel you are going to need a little red wagon now to help move all your supplies over to Timmies for future plant emergencies! 🚑

[@sydneyplantguy]

Hahaha omg yes I need a little wagon :D that would be hilarious :D Thanks !

Just love Tim! So good to get to know him a bit. Thanks for sharing.

Not only is Jan an inspiration for houseplant care but as a friend and a person in general. Only by being an wholesome person can you attract wholesome friends like Tim and A.J.

There were so many moments during this video that had me laughing. I loved the SPG emergency intro and Timmy slinging his sarcasm around. Awesome banter between you two 😂 Tim thanks for sharing your space with us and congratulations on your new home. Also, 100% your monster albo is better than Jan’s and it’s absolutely because of things you’ve done not genetics 😉😂🤣 Great video guys!

Don't feed into his delusion :D haha jk :) it's a nice specimen :) Thank you ! :)

This was such a treat!!🥰 Jan and Timmy together!!❤❤❤ Timmy's windows are amazing!!🤗🤗🤗🤗 The plant in the bathroom that you both were wondering about is a zebra plant.

[@htcschleicher9203]

Oh thought it was an Aphelandra. It says so on the pot of mine... and it seemed so similar. Do you know, if zebra plant is just another name for the Aphelandra? Or is it a different plant? Thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤

[@sydneyplantguy]

APHELANDRA SQUARROSA is the species name but it's commonly referred to as zebra plant :)

The setup is a perfect balance with the number of plants for the space, but that long window needs more. I'm halfway through the vid its brilliant. Bathroom plant looks like Aphelandra Zebra.

Jan, it was hilarious when you were "styling" the normally hanging plant into a messy bun while making sure that as many shoots as possible were in contact with the soil so they could root.

Makes sense tho, right?:D
