Started with bonsai and ended up obsessed with succulents and caudex form plants

Caudex plants are so so underrated! Seriously thank you for putting this out here I really appreciate it:)))

I just stumbled upon your channel-why haven't I discovered it earlier? I'm absolutely obsessed with flowers, plants, and cooking. South East Asia is my jam! I've practically spent my entire life here, well, besides being born in Sweden. But hey, Luzon Northern Philippines is my true home sweet home. Oh, and did I mention I'm happily hitched to a fabulous Filipina? Now, let's talk about Hong Kong, baby! It holds a very special place in my heart-it was my first taste of South East Asia. The people, the culture, and oh my, the mind-blowing Chinese Hong Kong style food! Pure bliss. Now here's the real deal-I've been binge-watching your videos like there's no tomorrow. Your content is so addictive! I've also got my own mini garden going on here, filled with fancy caudex plants. And guess what? I recently planted some fiery peppers to see how they'll survive in this Philippine heat. Exciting, right? Keep doing what you do, my friend! Sending loads of love and support from the enchanting Philippines! 🇵🇭

Thank you. Very interesting series. Keep them coming please.

Thanks for this series!

[@HalloTschuess]

Really great documentary! Thank you for that! Unfortunately there is not much good content on caudiciforms out there. It's still a niche hobby. On the other hand it's also a good thing because caudex plants grow slowly and most can only be propagated by seeds so there would probably be a lot more poaching, if they were more popular.

Amazing

Hello i decided for combo: Phyllanthus mirabilis and Stephania Kaweesakii. Is IT possible to care about them in same conditions? Humidity +70% temp. +/-23 degrees celsius? What kind of light is used on the video? Thx a lot.

[@laraffo]

hi could you please provide link to this beautiful shop. i would like to buy some caudex and pots if they sell online. thanks

[@Purwapada]

Operculicarya sp and Pachypodium sp especially P. rosulatum are being decimated by poaching, if it continues, they will become extinct in the wild.

[@treahugger5939]

The thing I want to know- these plants seem super old. Are they seed grown or poached from the wild? Most of this growth seems typical of wild specimens, and I’m very wary of poaching of caudiciform plants

[@CJSeibold]

Sadly, most of the plants shown in the video are decades old and poached from the wild. The Asian market is decimating wild populations of plants and they just don't care about it at all. Only buy seeds (from a reputable source) and you're guaranteed to have an ethical Pachypodium in no time!

all jungle collection plant

“They’re so old, so precious in the nature” yet you keep poaching them from their habitat, you don’t know what you have done to them kid
