Save the 🐝!!! I live on the East Coast in the US. DE actually. . What can I plant to help???😊
Ummm… did you mean Fiddle LEAF FIG? 😏 Really any type of ficus falls into this category.
I have them all, plus more.
Interesting thank you
Thanks for watching 🥹
They purify air, but it’s misleading as one or a few plants can’t do much in an open,dynamic environment
I have tried copper for snails and slugs. It doesn't work. They crawl right over it. However, a beer trap does work.
Oooo, do explain. What’s that?!
Thank you for validating what I have learned from my naturalized alstroemerias! Can I send you my pictures?? I’m from central California, and Alstroemerias are my favorite flower.🥰
They’re gorgeous right!? I love them too! You can send them to the email listed in my bio if you like 👍
not sure about the Fiddle Leaf tree coz I bought 3 bigger ones and they just died. I really like to have big tree plants inside but I just cant succeed in keeping fiddle
From where can I get different varieties of yarrows? Did you get all of them online or from Home Depot?
I’m sure you can find them on Amazon, but I found it at a local nursery. Home Depot usually has as well :)
@@BirdofParadise thank you 🙏
Fiddle leaf rigs are not easy. And they do not like lowlight.
okay, but actual bamboo or dracaena? Because some kinds of dracaena (madagascar dragon tree) are marketed as "lucky bamboo," but are not actually bamboo at all. still very easy and fun plants tho :)
Fiddle leaf figs cap!!!!!!!! 🧢 Those plants are notoriously difficult. Agree with all the others though! Would add Hoyas to this as well but otherwise a great list other than the fiddle leaf flops
I'm a het3ro-s3xual, bachelor male, and I love wildflowers. I'm not ashamed. (Tolkien's letters were some of my inspirations).
Love it!
Fiddle leaf figs are seriously hard to keep alive
It's a haworthia shown not aloe😮
Thank you 😉
Excellent, short and tons of information!! Thanks
Thanks for watching 😘
I will try to make the basin with water and stones, and I live in the south of Brazil
Brazilians are one of my favorite people 😍🤗 dreaming to go one day. Good luck and thanks for watching!
Here are some native flowers that are pollinator-friendly in your region: Brazilian verbena (Verbena bonariensis) Bougainvillea Brazilian vervain Golden Trumpet Tree Brazilian Plume (Justicia carnea): Brazilian firecracker plant (Russelia equisetiformis): Brazilian button flower (Centratherum intermedium) Brazilian ginger (Alpinia purpurata)
Amazing!!
Thanks love ❤️
Save the bees
Do you know if these are safe for cats? Thanks 🙏 Edit: I looked them up and only bamboo is safe 😞
hi! yes you're right. if any are ingested it's not good. i'm assuming your cat likes to chew ;(
You can keep your plant on a shelf or somewhere up high where you cat can't get to as in most cases even if the cat manages to snag a bite it only causes mild tummy ache or maybe some puking but it they aren't actually poisonous. The only plant to 100% keep out of a pet household are lilies as they are the only actually toxic plant to cats
That’s a good idea… maybe a hanging pothos on the ceiling? 🤗
Most ornamental house and garden plants contain toxins and will cause vomiting and stomach issues when ingested by humans and animals, but fortunately very few are lethal or will require a trip to the vet/ER. Cats usually learn that that will happen, so they will only chew on plants to induce vomiting to get rid of hairballs. That's why we give them cat grass which does exactly that by "just" irritating the cat's stomach due to their inability to digest it. But cat grass does not contain toxins and is therefore a safer option for hair balls. So rather research if a plant is dangerous or lethal for pets and kids. For example any kind"s of lilies [including peace/calla lilies and hyacinths] are VERY dangerous for cats because even any pollen that falls on the cat's fur when accidentally brushing the plant or drinking the water from the vase can cause fatal kidney damage. Other dangerous plants are anything with bulbs like Tulips, Narcissus, Amaryllis, Daffodils, Crocus etc - which will cause organ failure, tremors and seizures. Fortunately, the toxins are mostly concentrated in the bulb and cats usually can't even stand their smell and won't dig them up. Bigger risk for kids and dogs! Oleanders and Azaleas - can cause cardiac arrest even in humans‼️ Dieffenbachia - causes burning and swelling in the mouth and throat in animals and humans, similar to anaphylactic shock [called "Dumb Cane" for that reason] Sago Palm - even small amounts can lead to liver failure and extreme stomach issues.
Ok fiddle should NOT be on this list lol
Idk why so many people have had a hard time with FFL! I propagated mine and I’ve had it for years! I barely water it
My satin pothos comes with me when I shower lol. I sit her on the counter and bring her back onto her stand next to my window after I’m done
LMAO. You’re what they call a plant parent for sure 😍😍😍 love this so much
Thank you so much
Can you please write down the names of the five plants that you are talking about thank you
Sure dear. Bamboo/lucky bamboo Pothos Monstera Snake plant Fiddle fig leaf
Last one bs iv had 2 of them and after one year they die.
That’s unfortunate 😢 May I ask where you live?
@@BirdofParadise Oregon
I’m sure you have a green thumb 🤗 We’re in California- I had a fiddle fig leaf in the front yard that I propagated from.. perhaps they enjoy the dry California air? Thanks for tuning in ❤️
What plant doesn't remove co2?
Thanks for watching :) dead or dormant ones lol
Fiddle Leafs are hard to kill? "EXTREMELY" hard to kill ? 😂😂😂 What are you smoking?? As a matter of fact your whole list is whack
Thanks for watching 😊
These are all great! Don’t forget ZZ plants and rubber trees! They only need to be watered like every 4-5 weeks!
Thanks for watching 😊 yes they’re great! I did a part two check it out 😘
We Bangladeshis call the devil's ivy money plant:')
Wow very cool :) thanks for watching 🙏
Nice video! thank you
I killed a apider plant! Not hard to kill!
😥
How do you make your devil's ivy happy
I really don’t do much tbh. I water mine when I see the leaves wilting a bit, and keep them in bright indirect sunlight. Sometimes I’ll add crushed eggshells and coffee grounds to their soil. They like humidity so placing them in the kitchen or bathroom may make them a little bit happier. Good luck 😘❤️
Fiddle figs are notoriously hard to look after. And I've killed bamboo and pothos. I definitely recommend monstera deliciousa though.. Even if things go bad they bounce back eventually
Was your bamboo potted or in water?
Wth how have u killed the easiest plants to grow 😲
You killed a pothos???
I came here to say this! Fiddle leaf figs are just as finicky as their name implies!!!
My FLF died because I looked at it wrong
LOL story of my life but with Ponytail Palm 🥴
@@BirdofParadise Ponytail palms are succulents, act like it ;) mine all died from overwatering so i'm passing it onnn
@@Cindery936 i barely watered it :( they just dont like me
I love my ponytail palm but it keeps almost dying idk what I’m doing wrong 😅
That is one plant you won’t see me doing a video on lmao 🤣
Thanks for the recommendations
Thanks for watching ❤️🔥
My liver hurts
you should get a house plant to remove toxins from the air 😭
@@WalterDEgger I agree
Is this filmed on your phone? Looks really good
Thank you 😊 all of the editing was through my phone
this girl is God damn genius.
😆
Great video!
Thank you 😊
Will they grow in Memphis, Tn?
Yes. Memphis, Tennessee has a zone of 8a, and Peruvian lillies can grow in zones 7-10. Give them a try ❤️
Thank you for the quick response!. I can't wait to try them!
😍😍😍 thanks for commenting. I love to hear where my viewers are tuning in from
It's 2024 & the month of May, & ALL of my California Poppy plants are LOADED with curing seedpods! I live in SW CA desert ... & I suspect you live on the coast, according to that difference. My Poppies die back when it gets very hot, unless I keep them watered. Even so, they just don't do so well in desert summer heat!
I hear that! It’s really heating up isn’t it :) I get so excited seeing the pods.. I’m jealous 😆
Is possIble to propagate it from a cutting flower? Thank you in advance for your answer.
Hi! Unfortunately no. With these flowers, you have to get them by the roots, or from seed. Good luck ❤️
Today i found your video about iresine plant . Your voice is soft . Thank you for your videos.
Welcome and thanks for watching 😍❤️
Zone 9 Near Yosemite in the Sierra Nevadas
Hi! Love to help. Here is a brief list for you. You can also go to your local nursery and see which native seeds they sell, I find that planting seeds give me the greatest success. Good luck :) •California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica) •Lupine (Lupinus spp.) •Indian Paintbrush (Castilleja spp.) •California Buckeye (Aesculus californica) •Douglas Iris (Iris douglasiana) •California Fuchsia (Epilobium canum) •Western Columbine (Aquilegia formosa) •Western Wallflower (Erysimum capitatum) •Pacific Bleeding Heart (Dicentra formosa) •Western Azalea (Rhododendron occidentale)
What is the purple flower? Great video! looking forward to the poppy seed in the summer. Thanks!
Is it the sea lavender you’re referring to? It’s also called Statice :) thanks for watching
These days you need to be somewhat wealthy to afford a few plants, therefore, my new home gets to stay sad with zero landscape, zero plants or flowers...hope my neighbors didn't expect me to increase the value of anyone's home with pretty landscaping! I am more likey to give my money away, I will not pay the prices being asked for tiny little plants! It only takes saving the money from NOT PURCHASING 2 or 3 plants to fill a grocery cart with food! ...Sorry too depressing!
Wow you sound miserable! Don’t worry dear I’m sure none of your neighbors want anything to do with you or your home :) Be well Karen
I am writing you from Kanding Township Taiwan in the Beautiful Republic of China. (Free China) I am planting some Yarrow today.
Excellent :) welcome! Happy gardening :)
@@BirdofParadise Thank-You.
This is an excellent video!!!
Thanks for watching 🙏💕
Copper wire to deter snails!? Awesome tip!!
