My staghorn was bought about 8 years ago, in a pot, dying and pathetic and in the reduced basket of my local garden centre. He is still in his original pot, although you cannot see it anymore as his roots have completely surrounded the pot now, and he’s a bloody whopper, about 5 feet wide by 5 feet tall. I’m keep trying to work out if I should try to mount him, but he’s just too big so I leave him be as I’m sure he would not keep growing if I was doing it wrong. He lives in my inglenook fireplace during the summer when the fire is not lit, and he has his own bedroom.. honest to god .. he’s that big now .. and I feed him with a specialist tree fern fertiliser once every other month and a mushed up banana and skin every other month. My adult children know I care about him more than I do them and they have a love hate relationship with him, given that it is my adult’s son’s responsibility to carry him outside to catch the rain and breath in the fresh air. He’s my pride and joy, him and my tree fern which is 26 years old now and he’s just as spoilt haha

Love this episode. Always waiting for your upload. Very educational and not boring. Video editing is clean. More subscribers for you. Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭

Thank you for this tour! Newfound appreciation for platycerium now ❤️

Beautiful collection and what a dedication,thanks for sharing!!!

This tour was AMAZING! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing you passion with us. Truly an enjoyable refuge...Amazing! Can not wait to learn your technique on mounting. Thank you!

Hallo my dear, have a good day ahead... Since I'm watching ur video previously, you helping ur friend decorations our plant with their staghorn, I'm start falling in love with that plant. So bought one for my trial. I'm sooooo love it. Thanks for sharing 😘❤️😉. Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾

Whoa what an amazing space I loved seeing them all and hope you purchase my own very first staghorn someday very soon so this video was super inspiring & educational thanks so much for sharing 😁💚🌿🌱

wonderful tour and learned so much. Thanks for sharing your love of Platys!

Thank you for giving us a tour! Watching from philippines 🇵🇭 ❤️ Merry Christmas ♥ ♥

A mixture of feelings seeing you talking about the Platycerium. it's funny but at the same time fascinating and I learnt so much!, Greetings from Germany!

Aaaaahhhh, so excited!!!!! 🌿☺

What a beautiful collection! I just have some platycerum bifurcatum. Thanks for the care tips

Thanks for sharing this video. I'm also a fan for this Platycerium. They're very unique collections. Cheers 🍻

He has an amazing collection and they are nicely displayed . I have only two young platycerium in pots so I suppose I need to learn how to properly mount them.

Wow amazing video with lots of named varieties which is great to learn about. 🇬🇧 I'll have to look out for more cultivars

Merry Christmas in advance :) great showcase and environment :)

What a beautiful collection. Love your passion for them. Thanks for sharing❤

That collection is amazing. Here in the US, its hard to find certain staghorn species for affordable prices. I've barely gotten Ridleyi because of how expensive it is. That collection has to be THOUSANDS of dollars.

Oh yeah it is quite the museum for platyceriums here! Ridleyii is native to our country and so easily accessible. How much is it over there?? One could get a small/mid size one for about USD 40 to 50 here

@arodriguez339

Жыл бұрын

@@leafing.around I was able to find one for 87 USD. I got lucky because they are usually more than 150 USD. Its the same for most of the other species as well. Bifuractum and Veitchii are the only cheap and widely available ones here in the US. Superbum has been available for cheap (around 20 USD for a small sized one), and I recently got a small group of Elephantotis plantlets for about 20 USD. Most of the other species arent even being sold, and if they are, they are 150 USD like Ridleyi, or they are over 300 USD. I think I saw someone selling Willinckii for around 800 USD. There are lots of reasons they're so expensive, but it is still crazy, haha.

I think it would be easier to drill a pilot hole first for the screw & for the plastic wrapping, probably you could use grafting tape?? Thanks for sharing the 'mounting' technique & tips, hope I'll have the courage to try one of mine - zero error, it's the only one i have right now...😢

lol your expression about watering ridleyi is so funny... yeah, I'm not successfully grow ridleyii either. It's alive but not as healthy as his.

Merry Chistmas...i hope i can have that kind of your collection of staghorn?

How do you water them? Do you take them off the wall and soak it and drain

Where do you buy the wood for mounting?

Some have pups and they just push them out themselves ....some species like Ridleyi propagate by spores and that takes forever

I wiped off all the dust on mine thinking it was an infestation. Googled it and realized my mistake- it came back and looks healthy again
