This plant is stunning! I made my first moss pole over the weekend and put my pothos on it, I cant wait to see it grow. The next to go on a pole… the Pink Princess…. Maybe the pole will save her, cause I cant seem to make her grow at all. A year later and she still has only the same leaves alive that she came with. :-(

[@coagulatedsalts4711]

have you tried to put her on a heat mat? i had the same issue with my raphidaphora decursive but after giving it some heat it began to grow for me!

[@deniseplasse5126]

@@coagulatedsalts4711 thanks for the suggestion, as no I have NOT tried a heat mat. I solved the “issue” by buying a new one. LOL. Maybe I will put them all on a heat mat.

[@kyrad6543]

Yes, I would say it is NOT suffering! In fact, I'm sure that is the opposite of suffering. It's spectacular. I'm green with envy.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks:)

[@pamelalynn140]

I was going to ask about pot size but you answered it for me, this knowledge your sharing is Unbelievable, I'm going to try out the moss pole method and see if it helps in my cold wintery dull Ontario Canada winters🇨🇦

Cheers :) happy growing

Haii Sidney, i'm from indonesia, so happy i found your video. Well, I just adopted sodiroii since 3 days ago , it has 3 little leaves and I used the aglonema's soil. But i'd like to know how often for sodiroii get watering and vertilize? Is it love in dry or wet soil? May i purning the leaves to have bigs new leave?

[@vind4355]

I that is not Sodiroi, that is Majestic, Sodiroi has a read dot mark in the middle

[@sydneyplantguy]

It’s the opposite actually

What is the pillowy, lighter green, heart shaped plant with 2 big leaves to your right?

[@persianmuneca6264]

First

[@rachelenochs4685]

Stunning philodendron! I'm always amazed at how small your pots are compared to the large moss pole & huge leaves on your plants. Your plant aesthetic is very appealing & I enjoy watching your videos.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :)

[@Omlittlebuddha]

Can I ask if it’s ok for your moss poles to be green? Is it ok to be in a home environment health wise? 🙏🏻💚

[@sydneyplantguy]

Yes it’s just algae, not harmful :)

[@Km21294]

I made my first moss pole a while ago now for an el choco red. Not exactly 6cm in diameter lol. How I will know if my plant has rooted into the moss pole since I was considering making a larger one? Thank you!!!!

[@sydneyplantguy]

You should be able to see it :P

[@iamwoman1986]

Is this variegated? Or regular

[@PLFoon]

Y are your Plant leaves sooo Big with such a small pot ?

[@sydneyplantguy]

As mentioned in the video, the majority of the root system is inside the pole, not the pot

[@anermila6325]

Any pest issue so far ?

[@sydneyplantguy]

None at all :) very pleased !! Probably because all the spidermites just rush to the verrucosum right next to it :D

[@102HuevosFritos]

Wow 😮 every plant that I like is extremely out of my budget lol 😂 can’t justify spending over 40$ on a plant but this one is nice might have to save for it …. I was wondering what was going on with the video the quality but other people seem to be having the same issue because a few videos on my feed are like that also so it’s probably a KZbin thing

[@sydneyplantguy]

Prices will eventually come down too :) hope you’ll find one at an affordable price :)

[@pudgyplanter1130]

How!? I just do not get it! I don't know anyone with plants like yours! I am seriously dumb struck! I , I , I am at a loss for words. They are perfectly perfect.
