Variegated Philodendron Propagation | Preventing 'Burle Marx' Invasion!

Hello! Today I wanted to propagate my variegated Philodendron ‘Burle Marx’. The time has come, the plant has overgrown its dedicated space and I have to deal with the invasion of its aerial roots that try to attach to everything in the grow tent! I hope this video is more entertaining than useful because we all go through that struggle when we let our plants take over.

No plant youtubers were hurt/ abducted during the recording of this video. 👽🛸

He be rooting!

[@margitvarganemunkacsi9700]

Doing it underwater can help a lot to ease separating the two plants' roots.

While I will indeed never forgive you for this not being a Hoya video, I could also watch you do literally anything. Like yaass king take us to the grocery store next😍😍💅

[@BasiePlants]

😂😂😂 My grocery shopping is super fast. I go in there with a plan. 😅

Ja poludela, sad vidim ovaj video 😮❤ Ova biljka fenomenalna, ❤

Hi Miro ! I really enjoy watching your Hoya ‘Burle Marx’ propagation video 🤣🙈. TBH any plant videos you made it’s always fun watching 🥰

[@DX_EDITS439]

nice one host.thanks for sharing

[@betsybegonia]

I will begrudgingly enjoy this video in spite of disliking philodendrons very much.

[@BasiePlants]

You can enjoy how I cut it mercilessly. 😂

[@pottyplotter2462]

You asked what plant was brought as a good idea at the time. The ZZ plant! What was I thinking 🤔 It now is out side fending for itself 🤣

[@Apollenia]

What an amazing hoya!!! 🤩😆

[@BasiePlants]

Quite invasive one, never blooms! 😂

[@naleeyang5926]

I had a light fall and behead most of my VBM. That smell of it is very distinct- for me it was like a spicy black pepper smell

[@you_gullible_fucc]

The way that the petioles come a bright orange makes it more special imo, it looks like a variegated billietiae dupe. Dunno why some have orange petioles and why it's rare to find but if I would 100% get one if I could find it

[@williammalone8097]

i kept waiting to see a finger drop off into the tray, but fortunately, you disappointed me! Great job. Thanks for the video.

[@plantpedia2022]

Hi , your Burle Max is special, coz it has orange stem, and more vivid color, its either mutation or has bilitae gen, its hype in my country Indonesia ,for being cheaper version of "bilitiae varigata", but it also quite rare here and price 5x of regular burle max., im doing research on it for my next video

[@cynsim]

Love "Wheel of Time". Good job on the propagation.

[@karenb136]

One plant I was head over heals to get was a Stromanthe Triostar. I’ve had it for a couple years and don’t care for it now because I never could get it to look like the beautiful ones on the videos. Loved your video. I like the look of the smaller ones you chopped up. It’s easier to appreciate the leaves on it. Plus . . . Space.

[@BasiePlants]

I love the smaller ones much more! It is kind of lke Hoya polyneura... small cuttings look way cuter than the big plant!

[@lorimurphy889]

I do love that plant. Even the yellow leaf.

[@rhiannonkingston9659]

I probably would have cut some of the big root tangle off, especially since many got tangled and ripped off during the separation process. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@WoodlandT]

That hoya is gorgeous!

[@nanabethscreations725]

For me I will get hate mail for this but my Pink Princess Philodendron. She is gorgeous but a diva and with over 600 plants in the greenhouse I don’t have time for drama!

[@molliewoltmann5229]

This may be totally boring…but I love white flowers and bought 2 big white poinsettias at the holidays - fell out of love with them pretty quickly, but now I have these huge pots and can’t quit bring myself to throw them away. I want someone to love them, even though I don’t.

[@howmygardengrows3080]

One of my wishlisters! 😍

[@agnelchristianpereira6598]

Nice

[@artybea9316]

Soo scary!! But yay! More plants! 😂💜 I think philodendron Brandi is the one that has proved to be not as amazing as I thought it would be. But I think I have finally got a leaf that didn’t get stuck! Miracles DO happen! 😂

[@BasiePlants]

My brandtianum just got a pole! I have to fill it with moss and hopefully get it to size up, but it has become one of my favorites!

H. medinillifolia is definitely one I love the idea of, but wow the care! it is so difficult.

[@otisschroeder9790]

I’m re-“listening” to the wheel of time. Currently on book 3. Even the second time around it’s so so good!! I would enjoy African violet content, as I have been really getting into them lately!🤪

[@BasiePlants]

I am listening to it for the first time! I listened to 20 chapters in 3 days, but I have been busy in the past 4 days so I miss it a lot! I hope I can make that corner happen :)

[@martinanemcokova917]

For me it was Scindapsus treubii moonlight. I still have it but it is going soon.

[@sheilacasper2030]

That plant is beautiful. I love it. I forgive it for not being a hoya.

[@BasiePlants]

It is nice, but I like it more when it is smaller. :)

[@ehrrinkeenan]

Do you trim off those massive aerial roots when you prop them? I do love hoyas the most, but this was fun to watch, too. And I'm not that invested in this plant, so it didn't hurt at all to see it being cut up 😄 Early in my houseplant journey, I really wanted some plants that I remembered seeing along the way and thought were neat or I had a good memory attached to. One of those was a kalanchoe 'mother of thousands.' I fell out of love pretty fast after all the babies were literally everywhere. In every pot of everything. And then my feelings transitioned into hate. The mother got composted, and I gave away all the babies I could with fair warnings. HERE. ENJOY. EXCEPT YOU'LL HATE IT.

[@sherryporsch9349]

I think the Brandi, it’s beautiful but a pain too grow. 💚😀

[@plantladyonamission]

A plant I have purchase and fell out of love is the Philodendron pastazanum

[@lorafrost9628]

Great video -- I could not chop my plant like that with so many roots on it! As for plants that I liked before buying, but now they are meh to me, I have two: Philodendron Verricosum and any kind of prayer plant! Verricosum just get leggy and are spider mite magnets. Prayer plants just won't grow for me and they grow a bit awkwardly for me.

[@marydannmontano6544]

Ei! The stem looks like billitiae😍 A "Budget "Var Billitiae"🤔 Hahahah i like your var burle marx!🤩

[@lisanowakow3688]

A Snow Queen pathos. It spends a lot of time getting long runners then the middle leaves die off.

[@jelenamitrovic9039]

Thank you! It was like watching an action thriller :D I didn't have any problems when I transfered mine from semi hidro to coco peat and perlite mix, hopefully these will not act up either. They grow like weeds.

[@BasiePlants]

😂 I did want to consult you midway, but clearly decided against it. Maybe I would have gotten less propagations, but here we are now 😂

[@VickyHafler]

I have a green Burle Marx. I don’t understand the growth pattern at all. It’s a beautiful plant but I like your variegated one better 🥰 Philodendron Grazielae I thought I was going to love. The thing grows so weird I hate it now.

[@BasiePlants]

I prefer my green one to this one 😂 I like this one as a small plant much more. If it grew like the green one, I would like it more, but this grows very compact and tight together!

[@rams2484]

I love this plant, but the only one I've seen for sale here costs about my monthly income :))))) so..... i'll wait a few ... hundred years to buy it :))))

[@BasiePlants]

Oh really?! I know variegated billietiae is very expensive, but variegated 'Burle Marx' can be found in Europe for less than $50, especially if you want to go for a cutting. Variegated billietiae though costs more than what I earn in a year. 😂🥲

[@rams2484]

@@BasiePlants I live in Romania. I only saw the plant on one site (granted I didnt search too much) and it's a big one. It's almost 400euros .... so... i'll wait for a cutting :)

Oh my goodness, I am totally traumatized! I want this plant so bad but the cost is a bit too high for me. I still love your channel even though you have given me plantmares!! :]

[@BasiePlants]

What is the price there? They came down in prices a lot in EU in the past couple of months, I think you can get one cutting with 2 leaves for probably $30-40, depending where you are, and even less! Sorry for the plant nightmates 😂

[@beverlytrulson9373]

My Ficus Triangularis is my new plant that I'm not too terribly happy with. It keeps dropping leaves no matter what I do. I know ficus are prone to leaf drop, the little fucking divas that they are, but really! My Ginseng Ficus I got at the same time hasn't dropped a one.

[@rhiannonkingston9659]

My Ficus triangularis also dropped all but 2 leaves between winter and spring. Then as the days got longer it has totally leafed out again and is growing. Not sure if I did anything good or bad, I have switched to DI water since my tap water has a lot of minerals.

[@beverlytrulson9373]

Thank you! That's encouraging! I didn't think she was going to make it so I went the do or die route. I repotted her and added charcoal and worm castings to the soil. She's only dropped two leaves since then and is just sitting there brooding now. No activity at all. 🤞That's a good sign. She'll throw out a new leaf or drop them all at once and collapse in misery like the Diva she is. I named her Miss Bermuda! Thanks again. Beverly

[@susiesmith2543]

Send me a cutting lol. In Texas I know you can't. But I had to say it

The plant I really liked but when I got it I then HATED it, is my Philodendron Subhastatum. Ughhh. I gave it a year to change my mind but I still hate it.

[@lisanowakow3688]

Do aerial roots keep their same shape and function if you put them in the dirt or would they just rot?

[@wendyacker245]

Do you sell any plants to the US?

[@karineberiault7988]

Peperomia, Syngonium, and Philodendron, no thanks. I tried them and, meh. I like my P prostrata and I like my Philo ‘Brazil’ and Philo ‘Shangri-la’ but that’s it. Oh wait, I like my micans too. Hoyas are my favourite by far.

[@victoriac3832]

I’m curious. How much would a propagation like yours go for?

[@BasiePlants]

Maybe $10 for 2-3 leaves. :)

[@victoriac3832]

Oh wow, good price. Thanks!!

[@victoriac3832]

@@BasiePlants I know this is a loooong shot, but do you sell and ship cuttings? If so, and I know this video was a year ago, but do you have any cuttings of this plant available? It’s almost impossible to find in my area. This video was a while back for you, but I just saw it. Anyway, just thought I’d ask, and crossing my fingers and toes and eyes.☺️

[@TangoR3D]

any tips on how to get my VBM to size up the leaves?

[@BasiePlants]

Mine has also started to push out smaller leaves, and I assume part of that is because it was so crowded - much tighter than the green version which still pushes out big leaves and grows... more normally, for a 'Burle Marx'. I have seen some grown on poles, but there was no way mine would be able to have a pole. It did grow bigger leaves when it was smaller, but the more leaves it put out, the smaller they got.

[@lisanowakow3688]

Hoya Phildrenensis splash? 🤣

I have piper sylvaticum I really loved, but I am having problems with it so... new foliage is funky or just no foliage.... Not loving any more 😬

Omg I actually had a part in this video where I complained how I am disappointed with my Piper sylvaticum and I thought I was going to love it, but when I got it... it just wasn't doing it for me. I cut it out because the video got too long. 😂
