I have the large Monstera and I am so happy about it. I got the cutting for free at a train stop. A woman was carrying the biggest monsters cuttings I have ever seen. I asked her where she got it from and she said from her sister, whom had it for many many years. She offered me one for free and I was sooo happy
The "Philodendron Selloum" is actually Thaumatophyllum Bipinnatifidum! Also commonly called Tree Philodendron and Split Leaf Philodendron, some times even referred to as some sort of Monstera.
I love it also. Out of all the plants I have in my collection, this is the one that people won’t stop talking about. And I get all ranges of comments from okay, interesting to gorgeous.
i also don’t understand why more people don’t have philodendron goeldii/thaumatophyllum spruceanum!!! i bought mine from a plant store and it was a rooted cutting that only had 3 lobes! it’s been about 8 months and it has grown 3 immature leaves and 2 mature leaves that have 8 and 9 lobes respectively!! it doesn’t need a moss pole in my experience, just a lot of light!! :) absolutely one of my faves. 💚💚
I saw this plant at a local nursery and it stopped me in my tracks. It was so stunning and something I had never seen before. It was being sold as a Philodendron Green Wonder, and I was completely floored when I saw the price was under $20.
I have the E. Skeleton Key and it's one of my favorites. They are fun shape-shifting plants, easy to grow, and seeing the leaves mature into the skeleton version is really cool. Highly recommended and definitely underrated.
I randomly ran into a large form monstera deliciosa in a small plant shop in walking distance from my new apartment last year, for 40 euro. Hadn't seen one before and haven't seen one since, though apparently they're fairly common here in the netherlands/germany. I didn't technically have the money to buy it but here it is in my living room, thriving. Absolutely worth it, I spend so much time just kind of staring at it. It's just opened up it's first leaf with the beginnings of a 3rd row of fenestrations, which I am very excited about.
There aren't a lot of people who can place a smile onto my face, but you have yet to fail... thanks for that. Your enthusiasm always shows in your conversations regarding plants, but when you are genuinely excited about one.... WOW!! You ask if any of these plants make the grade for me, and yes at least half. LOL However two in particular are going onto my "hunt-em-down" list: the Monstera Pinnatipartita (I do like compact) and the style of growth resembles a Vanda Orchid (a personal fave), and the Thaumatophyllum Spruceanum (I am intrigued with the spiral growth). And while you didn't "discuss" it, you are getting full blame for turning me on to the Spiral Ginger... this one will be a must! Gracias de nuevo, Chica !!
If you haven't found the Monstera pinnatipartita try Canopy Plant Company. I've just had one appear at my door today. I've got to say Canopy is the Bestest!
I JUUUST picked up a young thaumatophylllum spruceanum! Ive seen them in so many conservatories mature, and I love them. I love starting plants of young and watching them grow and transform. So rewarding and I enjoy the journey! also its super cute at the moment
I actually have 3 of these plant, huh. Our local Chinese restaurant used to have large form deliciosa. It was over 3 m tall, growing on the wall. The restaurant didn't survive the pandemic so I don't know what happened to her... It was way too big to just put in a car, I hope they didn't just throw har away :( btw. I don't know what latin pronunciation would be, but if you're going with the original language (Polish) and botanist's last name "warscewiczi" would be pronounce as var-shae-vee-chee.
I have a thematophyllum spruceanum and I must say it is one of my favourite plants. The way the leaves form and grow fascinates me. They look so sculptural and elegant.
I’ve had a large form monstera outside my house for about 12 years. It climbed all the way to the roof and now covers the whole wall. Recently we repainted the outside of the house and had to take it down though. It made about 1000 cuttings.
I surprisingly have a bunch of these on your list! I will say, you are showing off the mature specimens of each which is definitely not that you're gonna see available for purchase. In Canada, all these fun philos are entering the market as very juvenile plants, which often times look like a hederaceum and most ppl just don't have the patience to wait for that ontogeny, so that's probably why these get looked over.
Made me laugh with the Monstera large form. Maybe because I'm old, and yes, everyone had one back then. I don't understand why they are so expensive, they're not rare at all!, just HUGE and difficult to handle. Only reason I don't have one is lack of room but they are one of my favourite plants 😍
Are you sure about the Monstera Deliciosa Large Form being so rare? In Germany the small form is much more rare. Basically every plant sold without a pole is a large form, plants already on a pole are small form. You'll find both in every kind of store
Omg the skeleton key is oooooooooh eeeeeeeerrrghhhh aaaaahhhhhh that’s so coooooool?! I love it. It makes me feel a little uneasy, like it’s haunted… love it.
Love how you added P. Warscewiczii! Took me forever to find a green (not yellow one), here in the US, spent $100 to have it shipped to me, but definitely worth having!
I have a Skeleton Key and a Geoldii! Mine are juvenile but still awesome. I can't wait to get my first mature leaf. Thank you for giving them recognition!
Anthurium Arrow came up and OMGAWD. pressed pause. Found on etsy under the name/names. She should be here by Tuesday. Really really good price. Not a big plant but definitely the arrow shape. Whether or not an older plant is why the arrow shape, I don't know. Anthurium scherzerianum and A. andraeanum were the 2 names I found it under. LoveLoveLove the shape, smoother and the shine of the leaves. ❤️🌱🌱❤️ Thank you Kalee Ellen. Pressing Play now.
Pressed pause again. Skeleton Key has been my want for a long while now. When I've searched for one at different times, not so difficult to find and prices much less cost than I ever expected. Soon for sure. 🌱❤️🌱 younger plants are easier to find. Etsy definitely. EBay as well. Pressing play.
African Fantasy has been added to my wishlist m probably will have it before I get the skeleton Key. Why I don't know. The universe just sends something to happen the second i am ready, willing and able to hunt for one. Lolz and an ugh too
A common thread going around all these thaumatophyllums (as well as E. skeleton key and Ph. warszewickzii) is that they are like Ph. lupinums and Ph. gigas - they take really long to reach mature form.
I can only speculate but I think the small version of lupinums that looks like a hederaceum is stunted, when people chop up immature philodendrons it creates stunted plants. if anyone has one i am curious as to if they get cataphylls.
i've had the e. sceleton key for half a year, still NO sign of the key shape. i've heard the same from others that have this one, and it don't like humidity, its a real pain in the butt
I have epipremnum skeleton key, it grows really fast but indeed matures slowly. The easiest way to get it to reach sizeable leaves before staking was to keep rounding the vine around the pot. It's not the height that leads to maturity it's development of aerial roots. It is starting to get key-shaped leaves after two rounds around the pot and they are still only one inch long, soon I will put it on a pole. Btw I did the same thing wit E white variegated, after one round around the pot the leaves are already double the size of the mother leaf from the cutting. It also worked for Cebu Blue. The only caveat is that the plant can't be rootbound, it will not mature if the roots are limited because you're adding more and more roots with every node. That's why using a moss pole there is no need to repot so often - the aerial roots develop inside the pole and total root system is actually pretty big even with a small pot.
I have a large form. Got some old dried out bits of stalk from a friend. Tossed them in my aquarium for a couple of weeks and now I have a fab plant! I absolutely love it. Everywhere sells borsigiana but I’ve never seen deliciosa for sale in shops
I love love love my Goldeii, for months I would look at one in a shop and keep telling myself you have no place for that to go when it gets large and I would leave it there. Finally I caved and bought it because I just adored that plant so much and I have zero regrets! I’m still so obsessed with it! The way the additional lobes grow in is mesmerizing to me!
Wooo another sponsored video :D glad you pick up the good sponsors and get paiiidddd for pushing out so much nice content for us, Kaylee! Anyways - onwards to the video 🌿
I own and love subhastatum, but it loses its red underside so quickly once it matures in size, climbing up its pole...which is sad for me because the reason why I love it is the red undersides
It’s so strange to see the difference in how things are priced and how hard things are to find in different countries, specifically that large form monsteras, many types of philodendrons and thaumatophyllums are in every garden in Australia. It’s nice to know that people who don’t see them everyday really appreciate them and see them as the special plants they are 🥹
Thank you so much. After watching your video. I searched for this Thaumatophyllum African Fantasy. Managed to get a pot. It was absolutely gorgeous! Loved it so much! Thank you for introducing this plant to me. I really love watching all your videos! Keep posting! Much love…
This is the first of your videos where I absolutely love every plant on the list! The only ones I hadn't seen before are the Anthurium Arrow and Thaumatophyllum African Fantasy. The rest are already on my wishlist, and those two will be joining them! Loved this video, so glad to see these underrated plants get the love they deserve.
The subhastatum and dragon have been on my wishlist but I’m trying to limit the growth of collecting. I also like the skeleton key and the anthurium arrow has definitely just made it into my wishlist 💙!
Thank you for mentioning philodendron subhastatum! I've been forever saying that it's way underestimated and I don't understand why people aren't after it. I own one, also a variegata version and they are gor-geous, I'd never give up on them
I just recently purchased online a monstera pinnatipartita a 4 inch plant. I didn't know much about it but I like how the young leaves looked, I'm very excited to know what this can grow into! Can't wait!
Philodendron fuzzy petiole is one of my cheap, not talked about, faves. I’m not talking about squamifarum. It looks like a gloriousum without the veins and it’s CHEAP online. $20 bucks on Etsy cheap. I never see it in big box stores. It grows these large, beautiful, almost velvet looking, pillowy leaves and of course…cute fuzzy/bumpy petioles. Love it.
I picked one up in my local shop but when I got it home I discovered travel damage and all the new leaves coming in were rotten so I’ve had to do the big chop back. Beautiful plant. Gutted that the one I got was in such bad condition! 😭😭😭
The stuck leaves lol im onto mine trying to grow out the third leaf since i got it and this one might make it!!! Two of the older leaves has a couple big splashes of variegation. Anyone else had this pop up in their Fuzzy petiole/ Nangaritense?
I have a skeleton key and love it. It only get weird if you mature it on a pole; otherwise it just looks like a much more attractive version of a jade pothos that has a long drip tip on each leaf. A really gorgeous, easy, fun plant.
my favourite plants that are "inexpensive and stunning but not often seen in collections" are definitely canna lilies and syngonanthus mikado! everytime i have people over they stop at these. especially my canna that looks like a banana plant with sectoral red variegation (canna cleopatra) its just to die for imho, and you can get both canna and the mikado for maybe 5-15€ each in garden centers over here. i love them so much 🙌
In its very mature form, the skeleton key does not look like anything close to its juvenile version. The leaf loses its tail. I wanted to buy one, but changed my mind when I saw the mature one
I have epi. P. skeleton 🔑. Actually I have a collection of Epipremnum pinnatum 7 of them(blue/mint/aurea/albo/blue var/skeleton key/marble) and I love them. They bring me joy.
I have all the plants you mentioned in this video, and you are right these specimens are all exotic and beautiful. The Angela is still expensive. My warscewiczii looks like a tree because it is really huge. For subhastatum turns all green when it reach the maturity the red back will eventually turn intoo all green, but yes it,s beautiful.
The Pinnatipartita is a very common plant here in Nigeria. It’s very fast growing and it does need a pole because it’s eager to climb and produces lots of arial roots. It has different growth profiles . Mine isn’t fenestrated but grows so beautifully. Love it
I hunted everywhere for a Golden Dragon narrow after I saw it on your channel, finally found one, and I LOVE it. It's so easy and unique and even my non plant fan husband likes it.
Love it! I have a philo warzcewiczii, and it's my absolute favorite. They're a little weird care-wise, which is maybe why they're not as popular as they should be. They like to go bone dry between watering, they hate getting their leaves wet, and they're semi-deciduous so they will often drop leaves if their environmental conditions change quickly. So basically, they don't ship well. But, they bounce back eventually and they're beautiful. (This all being said from my own personal experience of course) Great video, Kaylee!
I have two warscewiczii, I love the lime green one and yes, absolutely horrible to ship and not so easy to keep happy. Even next day shipping shocks them to almost death and they take long time to decide to live
Linguist here! Philodendron /var-sheh-VEE-shee-ee/ :) It's named after the capital of Poland! But since we tend to use Latin naming conventions, that's probably where the emphasis would be.
I LOVE the Philodendron Warscewiczii. I don't understand why they're not more popular. Like you said, you often find the yellow version but I much prefer the green one. They're so beautiful at every stage. I got a baby plant and I'm so pleased that I have it in my (small) collection!
I love my philodendron selloum! Especially how the edges of the leaves are like a crinkled ribbon. Thanks for reminding me how many plants are out there and you don't have to break the bank to have a beautiful collection. :)
I love the weird plants, skeleton key is honestly quite far up my wishlist it’s so Alien xD golden dragon is one of my faves too have a tiny camo as well
I have the variegated subhastatum and tried selling it for over a year. Never sold and now I’m just obsessed. Get so excited every few days to see what the newest leaf is looking like
I ordered a subhastatum as soon as I finished watching the video. I told myself I wouldn't buy any more plants this year... but man is that red leaf pretty!
For the first time, I have two of the plants from your list. I have an anthurium arrow and also a golden dragon. Both are recent purchases so I can't really comment on the ease/growth/etc. However, I love them both and both were very very affordable, and I also found both in my local garden center 🙂
Thank you so much - your timing was PERFECT! I just purchased (today) an Anthurium Arrow and was told it was a philodendron. I was like…. Hmmm, nah. And then you show up and label it spot on for me!! Great list in this video.
Just bought an Amydrium zippelianum today! Picking it up tomorrow. And I have a juvenile Monstera pinnatipartita! Excited to see these babes on your underrated plant list!
Love the dpi skeleton key! I got a full one from Steve’s Leaves. And thank you for hyping the philodendron subhastatum, it’s one of my favorites and so easy to propagate
I got a Goeldii from my local garden center and it's huge and sprawling and I absolutely don't have room for it but I love it so much! I have a baby too and they are very very different for sure!
I was glad to find twice a philodendron warszewiczii in the plant section of a hardware store. From time to time they get mixes of philodendron and then there is a special plant hiding among the others.
.. Thank you Kaylee for yet another video.. Ohh, the Philodendron Subhastatum is definitely on my wishlist now ☘️🤗 Last year I bought a Philodendron Goeldii in my grosery store, and about 6 months later I gave it away to a neighbor, because I never understood the poor plant.. Now I often see the plant in garden centers, but it is not for mee..
I own a skeleton key baby and it's pretty similar to a regular pinnatum. Two leaves are even silver and look very similar to a philodendron silver sword. It grows pretty fast and I love it and I'm looking forward to the days it matures. It's awkward but I love that.
I have an old large form Monstera. I just air layered a four node section of it for my daughter. We had to use tree branch loppers to cut it once it was ready to be removed.
I JUST bought a warszewiczii baby last week after seeing it in a purge and googling what it was--so glad that someone is talking about them!! Can't wait to grow mine out too :D
Omg I just got a golden dragon thrown in as a bonus when I bought a gloriosum last week. I'd never heard of it before and it's a teeny tiny little pup so doesn't look like much yet but now I can't wait to grow it out! Thank you Kaylee 💓
OK so my border collie puppy ate my Golden dragon pup and I couldn't be more devastated. BUT I did go out and buy a subhastatum and It's definitely one I overlooked for far too long. Gorgeous plant. So easy too.
This is so interesting! In the US in some places the large form monstera is pretty easy to find in big box stores. The small one is obviously more common but locally they were selling MASSIVE (6 foot) monstera del. Large form for $50 😳 the leaves were incredible, I was so sad I didn't have the space😂
Ive seen large form monsteras pop up in a home depot a couple of times and i wish i had the space for one, theyre gorgeous. I also quite like the skeleton key pothos cause it reminds me of an alocasia stingray which i find cute
OMG I have a young thaumatophyllum spruceanum, it’s weird for sure but watching it grow is so satisfying, you never know how many lobes each new leaf will have so now I’m just extra excited for it to get bigger 😍
I love a lot of these plants and I own a Goeldii, found it at a local nursery and it’s not fully mature yet but it’s nice to see what each new leaf looks like, and it gets about 2-3 ft. tall with a wide span, I have seen the skeleton key philodendron before and I have it on my wishlist, several of these have been sold by Steve’s Leaves online store too
Again...you provide such good content. I love these plants and will get when able. Nice to see the unusual. I am tired of alot everyone has or wants. I do not like "lemming" behavior where one buys what the internet says are "must haves" simply because your neighbor has one. So thanks for these alternatives!
I have an epipremnum skeleton key and I really love it. I like epipremnums in general and have a lot of different ones. The skeleton key shape needs a lot of time though, because only the large leafs on the adult plant will have this shape. If you have a thing for epipremnums and odd looking leaf shapes, try to search for a epipremnum shangri la. There are also two variegata versions of the epipremnum aureum and the epipremnum pinnatum albo which will develop splits and holes in the leafs, looks a bit like a monstera adansonii but with lesser holes.
I love the Skeleton Key a lot!!! I recently got 2 immature cuttings and I'm currently training them to grow up a wooden plank so they mature faster. I'm really excited for it to give me the mature leaves!! They remind me of the Alocasia Stingray, which I also absolutely adore. I also love stingrays so when I saw the leaf shape it was a no brainer for me to get it!!! Highly recommend!!!
I saw an anthurium arrow in a garden centre this week and it’s been on my mind ever since! This video is a sign to rush back! Plus thaumatophylums (spelling??) are 🔥 need to be added to the collection
I got a Pinnatipartitum a couple of months ago, had to chop it completely and man is it such a sturdy giving plant. About 3 weeks later it started to sprout leaves. I can't recommend it more.
The P warszewiczii are one of my favourites, such a hugely underrated plant - thanks for giving it some love! I quite like the skeleton key one as well... it's weird and funky enough for me and not one you really see in Australia.
Love my skeleton key but it takes alot of time and alot of climbing to get very "key" shaped. Fast grower, but as soon as it runs out of pole space it starts to "revert" in shape.
The first pic of the skeleton key I was not impressed but the one you showed I was more ohhh. I need want the arrow its stunning. Most of these plants are so cool. I love the plant hunt. Great vid
I got a cutting of the large form monstera from my mom-she grows it outside in her north facing garden in LA and it’s huuuge. Anthurium arrow definitely made it to my list and golden dragon was already there :) great vid
I've got the monstera lechleriana and it's verigated form and I gotta say i love them wey more the then adansonnii and deliciosa but I actually just got a young pinnatipartita, loving it so far and can't wait for it to split, and now I'm on the hunt for the subpinatum.
I have the large Monstera and I am so happy about it. I got the cutting for free at a train stop. A woman was carrying the biggest monsters cuttings I have ever seen. I asked her where she got it from and she said from her sister, whom had it for many many years. She offered me one for free and I was sooo happy
That is awesome.
Nice. I have 5 of these plants.
How I wish this happened for me !! I can't find these anywhere!
I got mine for free too! It was from my online plant friend that doesn't have enough space anymore 😂
🛩🛩
I'm glad that you are showing inexpensive plants, it's not always about expensive and rare plant all the time.
Could we please possibly get a thaumatophyllum rare plant index in the future :) ? I love them and I think they are so underrated?
If you do this kaylee please put thaumatophyllum revolutions and super atom on there
She just did, check her latest video
@@siobhanahbois she hasn't yet tho?
I have a Variegated Spiral Ginger and I love it. It's super easy to take care of, grows pretty fast, and the variegation pattern is stunning.
Omg I just looked up that one and I want it soooo bad 😂😂😂😂
The "Philodendron Selloum" is actually Thaumatophyllum Bipinnatifidum! Also commonly called Tree Philodendron and Split Leaf Philodendron, some times even referred to as some sort of Monstera.
I LOVE the epiprenum skeleton key! It looks like a mini, vining alocasia stingray! Definitely an “ooohhh?👀😲” for me.
My exact reason for a vote yes to the plant👍 Vertical crawl up instead of out also saves more space as well and could be a good “filler”
I love it also. Out of all the plants I have in my collection, this is the one that people won’t stop talking about. And I get all ranges of comments from okay, interesting to gorgeous.
i also don’t understand why more people don’t have philodendron goeldii/thaumatophyllum spruceanum!!! i bought mine from a plant store and it was a rooted cutting that only had 3 lobes! it’s been about 8 months and it has grown 3 immature leaves and 2 mature leaves that have 8 and 9 lobes respectively!! it doesn’t need a moss pole in my experience, just a lot of light!! :) absolutely one of my faves. 💚💚
I saw this plant at a local nursery and it stopped me in my tracks. It was so stunning and something I had never seen before. It was being sold as a Philodendron Green Wonder, and I was completely floored when I saw the price was under $20.
I loved it when I saw it! Definitely going on my list!
I saw a person say the skeleton key pothos reminded them of alocasia stingray. Very much the vibe
I have the E. Skeleton Key and it's one of my favorites. They are fun shape-shifting plants, easy to grow, and seeing the leaves mature into the skeleton version is really cool. Highly recommended and definitely underrated.
Ep. Skeleton looks kind of ee...but I think I would LOVE it )
I was thinking almost the same when she was talking about the skeleton key. One of the easiest and fastest to grow and propagate.
I have a couple baby ones! They’re great:)
I randomly ran into a large form monstera deliciosa in a small plant shop in walking distance from my new apartment last year, for 40 euro. Hadn't seen one before and haven't seen one since, though apparently they're fairly common here in the netherlands/germany.

It's just opened up it's first leaf with the beginnings of a 3rd row of fenestrations, which I am very excited about.
I love my mature skeleton but to get those cool key shapes i would definitely highly recommend the moss pole. But either way its such a fast grower!
Ooooo tips and tricks!
*rubs hands together*
I can’t wait to get mine.
im so pissed i almost got that plant 2 years ago but i didn't know how sexy they are when they mature.
One of the favourites in my collections too! They grow so quickly if they can climb, and are very easy to take care of!
Mine has two silver leaves but all the others are regular green. Does anyone have a explanation for this?
There aren't a lot of people who can place a smile onto my face, but you have yet to fail... thanks for that. Your enthusiasm always shows in your conversations regarding plants, but when you are genuinely excited about one.... WOW!!

If you haven't found the Monstera pinnatipartita try Canopy Plant Company. I've just had one appear at my door today. I've got to say Canopy is the Bestest!
I feel like a lot of succulents and cacti go unnoticed too. There are so many and most are not too expensive (if you buy them small).
I JUUUST picked up a young thaumatophylllum spruceanum! Ive seen them in so many conservatories mature, and I love them. I love starting plants of young and watching them grow and transform. So rewarding and I enjoy the journey! also its super cute at the moment
Subhastatum is my favorite! It was my first "fancy" philodendron and it grows so easily and fast. It's got these beautiful big leaves too 😍😍
I love the skeleton key! It is my fastest growing plant, such an overlooked gem!
❤️💜🌿
I LOVE the Skeleton Key! It’s super different and you know you’re doing good when the keys start taking form! ^.^
I actually have 3 of these plant, huh. Our local Chinese restaurant used to have large form deliciosa. It was over 3 m tall, growing on the wall. The restaurant didn't survive the pandemic so I don't know what happened to her... It was way too big to just put in a car, I hope they didn't just throw har away :( btw.

Made me laugh with the Monstera large form. Maybe because I'm old, and yes, everyone had one back then. I don't understand why they are so expensive, they're not rare at all!, just HUGE and difficult to handle. Only reason I don't have one is lack of room but they are one of my favourite plants 😍
Are you sure about the Monstera Deliciosa Large Form being so rare? In Germany the small form is much more rare. Basically every plant sold without a pole is a large form, plants already on a pole are small form. You'll find both in every kind of store
Love this list. Huge fan of the philodendron subhastatum. It grows fast. It propagates so easy and it’s a really pretty plant. Totally underrated!
Omg the skeleton key is oooooooooh eeeeeeeerrrghhhh aaaaahhhhhh that’s so coooooool?! I love it. It makes me feel a little uneasy, like it’s haunted… love it.
Love how you added P. Warscewiczii! Took me forever to find a green (not yellow one), here in the US, spent $100 to have it shipped to me, but definitely worth having!
How's it doing for you? Mine keeps yellowing and looks like a defoliated tree, and I don't know where I'm going wrong with it
I have a Skeleton Key and a Geoldii! Mine are juvenile but still awesome. I can't wait to get my first mature leaf. Thank you for giving them recognition!

That's why using a moss pole there is no need to repot so often - the aerial roots develop inside the pole and total root system is actually pretty big even with a small pot.
I have a large form. Got some old dried out bits of stalk from a friend. Tossed them in my aquarium for a couple of weeks and now I have a fab plant! I absolutely love it. Everywhere sells borsigiana but I’ve never seen deliciosa for sale in shops
I love love love my Goldeii, for months I would look at one in a shop and keep telling myself you have no place for that to go when it gets large and I would leave it there. Finally I caved and bought it because I just adored that plant so much and I have zero regrets! I’m still so obsessed with it! The way the additional lobes grow in is mesmerizing to me!
This was a great list. I just discovered the T. African Fantasy last night and immediately put it on my list so this really does feel like my sign
Wooo another sponsored video :D glad you pick up the good sponsors and get paiiidddd for pushing out so much nice content for us, Kaylee! Anyways - onwards to the video 🌿
Thankyoo 🥰
I own and love subhastatum, but it loses its red underside so quickly once it matures in size, climbing up its pole...which is sad for me because the reason why I love it is the red undersides
It’s so strange to see the difference in how things are priced and how hard things are to find in different countries, specifically that large form monsteras, many types of philodendrons and thaumatophyllums are in every garden in Australia. It’s nice to know that people who don’t see them everyday really appreciate them and see them as the special plants they are 🥹
Thank you so much. After watching your video. I searched for this Thaumatophyllum African Fantasy. Managed to get a pot. It was absolutely gorgeous! Loved it so much! Thank you for introducing this plant to me. I really love watching all your videos! Keep posting! Much love…
This is the first of your videos where I absolutely love every plant on the list! The only ones I hadn't seen before are the Anthurium Arrow and Thaumatophyllum African Fantasy. The rest are already on my wishlist, and those two will be joining them! Loved this video, so glad to see these underrated plants get the love they deserve.
The subhastatum and dragon have been on my wishlist but I’m trying to limit the growth of collecting. I also like the skeleton key and the anthurium arrow has definitely just made it into my wishlist 💙!
Thank you for mentioning philodendron subhastatum! I've been forever saying that it's way underestimated and I don't understand why people aren't after it. I own one, also a variegata version and they are gor-geous, I'd never give up on them
I just recently purchased online a monstera pinnatipartita a 4 inch plant. I didn't know much about it but I like how the young leaves looked, I'm very excited to know what this can grow into! Can't wait!
Philodendron fuzzy petiole is one of my cheap, not talked about, faves. I’m not talking about squamifarum. It looks like a gloriousum without the veins and it’s CHEAP online. $20 bucks on Etsy cheap. I never see it in big box stores. It grows these large, beautiful, almost velvet looking, pillowy leaves and of course…cute fuzzy/bumpy petioles. Love it.
I picked one up in my local shop but when I got it home I discovered travel damage and all the new leaves coming in were rotten so I’ve had to do the big chop back. Beautiful plant. Gutted that the one I got was in such bad condition! 😭😭😭
Ughh I’ve had a Fuzzy Petiole for almost a yr an it’s such a humidity hog!! Leaves getting stuck constantly, it’s pain too keep up with for me.
The stuck leaves lol im onto mine trying to grow out the third leaf since i got it and this one might make it!!! Two of the older leaves has a couple big splashes of variegation. Anyone else had this pop up in their Fuzzy petiole/ Nangaritense?
What does it call in etsy ?
Cheap now yeah, I had to put out 200 bucks for it
I have a skeleton key and love it. It only get weird if you mature it on a pole; otherwise it just looks like a much more attractive version of a jade pothos that has a long drip tip on each leaf. A really gorgeous, easy, fun plant.
my favourite plants that are "inexpensive and stunning but not often seen in collections" are definitely canna lilies and syngonanthus mikado! everytime i have people over they stop at these. especially my canna that looks like a banana plant with sectoral red variegation (canna cleopatra) its just to die for imho, and you can get both canna and the mikado for maybe 5-15€ each in garden centers over here. i love them so much 🙌
Canna are so underrated, I love my canna stuttgart!
I have that Canna!
In its very mature form, the skeleton key does not look like anything close to its juvenile version. The leaf loses its tail. I wanted to buy one, but changed my mind when I saw the mature one
Try the alocasia stingray. It is almost identical and keeps it's tail.
I have epi. P. skeleton 🔑. Actually I have a collection of Epipremnum pinnatum 7 of them(blue/mint/aurea/albo/blue var/skeleton key/marble) and I love them. They bring me joy.
I have all the plants you mentioned in this video, and you are right these specimens are all exotic and beautiful. The Angela is still expensive. My warscewiczii looks like a tree because it is really huge. For subhastatum turns all green when it reach the maturity the red back will eventually turn intoo all green, but yes it,s beautiful.
That Anthurium arrow is absolutely magnificent!!!!!! I need this…..😱
The Pinnatipartita is a very common plant here in Nigeria. It’s very fast growing and it does need a pole because it’s eager to climb and produces lots of arial roots. It has different growth profiles . Mine isn’t fenestrated but grows so beautifully. Love it
I lived in Malta and large form monsteras are growing everywhere in front of the houses. Leaves I could use for a blanket 😂
I love my Goldie - so funky & beautiful & adds so much to the jungle vibe in my lounge
I hunted everywhere for a Golden Dragon narrow after I saw it on your channel, finally found one, and I LOVE it. It's so easy and unique and even my non plant fan husband likes it.
Love it! I have a philo warzcewiczii, and it's my absolute favorite. They're a little weird care-wise, which is maybe why they're not as popular as they should be. They like to go bone dry between watering, they hate getting their leaves wet, and they're semi-deciduous so they will often drop leaves if their environmental conditions change quickly. So basically, they don't ship well. But, they bounce back eventually and they're beautiful. (This all being said from my own personal experience of course)
Great video, Kaylee!
I have two warscewiczii, I love the lime green one and yes, absolutely horrible to ship and not so easy to keep happy. Even next day shipping shocks them to almost death and they take long time to decide to live
I absolutely adore my Skeleton Key, it's also quite a hardy plant and easy to root the cuttings! I've had it since around August 2020.
Linguist here! Philodendron /var-sheh-VEE-shee-ee/ :) It's named after the capital of Poland! But since we tend to use Latin naming conventions, that's probably where the emphasis would be.
Absolutely agree with your choices! Subhastatum underleaf is beautiful! And golden dragon’s shape is gorgeous!
I LOVE the Philodendron Warscewiczii. I don't understand why they're not more popular. Like you said, you often find the yellow version but I much prefer the green one. They're so beautiful at every stage. I got a baby plant and I'm so pleased that I have it in my (small) collection!
Your make up is literally ALWAYS on point
I love my philodendron selloum! Especially how the edges of the leaves are like a crinkled ribbon. Thanks for reminding me how many plants are out there and you don't have to break the bank to have a beautiful collection. :)
Previously it was classified in the genus Philodendron. but now, it was classified in the genus Thaumatophyllum Bipinnatifidum
I love the weird plants, skeleton key is honestly quite far up my wishlist it’s so Alien xD golden dragon is one of my faves too have a tiny camo as well
I have the variegated subhastatum and tried selling it for over a year. Never sold and now I’m just obsessed. Get so excited every few days to see what the newest leaf is looking like
I ordered a subhastatum as soon as I finished watching the video. I told myself I wouldn't buy any more plants this year... but man is that red leaf pretty!
Just wanted to say you look absolutely gorgeous :) You're rocking this look!
Just bought a golden dragon, I remembered a previous video where you mentioned it! Love these videos, they keep me updated on what is trending. ❤❤
For the first time, I have two of the plants from your list. I have an anthurium arrow and also a golden dragon. Both are recent purchases so I can't really comment on the ease/growth/etc. However, I love them both and both were very very affordable, and I also found both in my local garden center 🙂
Thank you so much - your timing was PERFECT! I just purchased (today) an Anthurium Arrow and was told it was a philodendron. I was like…. Hmmm, nah. And then you show up and label it spot on for me!!
Great list in this video.
Just bought an Amydrium zippelianum today! Picking it up tomorrow. And I have a juvenile Monstera pinnatipartita! Excited to see these babes on your underrated plant list!
Love the dpi skeleton key! I got a full one from Steve’s Leaves. And thank you for hyping the philodendron subhastatum, it’s one of my favorites and so easy to propagate
OMGosh Kaylee!!! I’ve never seen a Spiral Ginger plant before. How unusual!!!
I got a Goeldii from my local garden center and it's huge and sprawling and I absolutely don't have room for it but I love it so much! I have a baby too and they are very very different for sure!
I was glad to find twice a philodendron warszewiczii in the plant section of a hardware store. From time to time they get mixes of philodendron and then there is a special plant hiding among the others.
where I live in Mexico you can find the monstera large form in main streets, they are part of the streets!!
.. Thank you Kaylee for yet another video.. Ohh, the Philodendron Subhastatum is definitely on my wishlist now ☘️🤗 Last year I bought a Philodendron Goeldii in my grosery store, and about 6 months later I gave it away to a neighbor, because I never understood the poor plant.. Now I often see the plant in garden centers, but it is not for mee..
I own a skeleton key baby and it's pretty similar to a regular pinnatum. Two leaves are even silver and look very similar to a philodendron silver sword. It grows pretty fast and I love it and I'm looking forward to the days it matures. It's awkward but I love that.
I have an old large form Monstera. I just air layered a four node section of it for my daughter. We had to use tree branch loppers to cut it once it was ready to be removed.
I JUST bought a warszewiczii baby last week after seeing it in a purge and googling what it was--so glad that someone is talking about them!! Can't wait to grow mine out too :D
The Anthurium Arrow is lovely! Sort of looks like a giant heart leaf fern to me :)
My Goeldii is one of my favorite plants ever! The mature form is stunning!
Omg I just got a golden dragon thrown in as a bonus when I bought a gloriosum last week. I'd never heard of it before and it's a teeny tiny little pup so doesn't look like much yet but now I can't wait to grow it out! Thank you Kaylee 💓
OK so my border collie puppy ate my Golden dragon pup and I couldn't be more devastated. BUT I did go out and buy a subhastatum and It's definitely one I overlooked for far too long. Gorgeous plant. So easy too.
This is so interesting! In the US in some places the large form monstera is pretty easy to find in big box stores. The small one is obviously more common but locally they were selling MASSIVE (6 foot) monstera del. Large form for $50 😳 the leaves were incredible, I was so sad I didn't have the space😂
Ive seen large form monsteras pop up in a home depot a couple of times and i wish i had the space for one, theyre gorgeous. I also quite like the skeleton key pothos cause it reminds me of an alocasia stingray which i find cute
OMG I have a young thaumatophyllum spruceanum, it’s weird for sure but watching it grow is so satisfying, you never know how many lobes each new leaf will have so now I’m just extra excited for it to get bigger 😍
I love a lot of these plants and I own a Goeldii, found it at a local nursery and it’s not fully mature yet but it’s nice to see what each new leaf looks like, and it gets about 2-3 ft. tall with a wide span, I have seen the skeleton key philodendron before and I have it on my wishlist, several of these have been sold by Steve’s Leaves online store too
Again...you provide such good content. I love these plants and will get when able. Nice to see the unusual. I am tired of alot everyone has or wants. I do not like "lemming" behavior where one buys what the internet says are "must haves" simply because your neighbor has one. So thanks for these alternatives!
I have an epipremnum skeleton key and I really love it. I like epipremnums in general and have a lot of different ones. The skeleton key shape needs a lot of time though, because only the large leafs on the adult plant will have this shape.
If you have a thing for epipremnums and odd looking leaf shapes, try to search for a epipremnum shangri la.
There are also two variegata versions of the epipremnum aureum and the epipremnum pinnatum albo which will develop splits and holes in the leafs, looks a bit like a monstera adansonii but with lesser holes.
Amydrium Zippelianum is awesome, just ordered one because of your recommendation, thanks. Keep up the great recommendations
I love the Skeleton Key a lot!!! I recently got 2 immature cuttings and I'm currently training them to grow up a wooden plank so they mature faster. I'm really excited for it to give me the mature leaves!! They remind me of the Alocasia Stingray, which I also absolutely adore. I also love stingrays so when I saw the leaf shape it was a no brainer for me to get it!!! Highly recommend!!!
Love this list! I have 4 of these plants and the spruceanum is one of my favourites. I’m definitely adding the African fantasy to my wish list!
I saw an anthurium arrow in a garden centre this week and it’s been on my mind ever since! This video is a sign to rush back! Plus thaumatophylums (spelling??) are 🔥 need to be added to the collection
I have a variegated subhastatum and I ADORE IT 🥰 Theyre such good additions and really really easy
I got a Pinnatipartitum a couple of months ago, had to chop it completely and man is it such a sturdy giving plant. About 3 weeks later it started to sprout leaves. I can't recommend it more.
The P warszewiczii are one of my favourites, such a hugely underrated plant - thanks for giving it some love! I quite like the skeleton key one as well... it's weird and funky enough for me and not one you really see in Australia.
I just ordered a juvenile epi skeleton key last week!! I can’t wait to see it mature!
Love my skeleton key but it takes alot of time and alot of climbing to get very "key" shaped. Fast grower, but as soon as it runs out of pole space it starts to "revert" in shape.
I have a juvenile Skeleton Key and it grows like a champ.
I’m excited to watch it mature…the immature form looks very much like a regular epi Penn
The first pic of the skeleton key I was not impressed but the one you showed I was more ohhh. I need want the arrow its stunning.
Most of these plants are so cool.
I love the plant hunt.
Great vid
I got a cutting of the large form monstera from my mom-she grows it outside in her north facing garden in LA and it’s huuuge. Anthurium arrow definitely made it to my list and golden dragon was already there :) great vid
I've got the monstera lechleriana and it's verigated form and I gotta say i love them wey more the then adansonnii and deliciosa but I actually just got a young pinnatipartita, loving it so far and can't wait for it to split, and now I'm on the hunt for the subpinatum.
I was so excited to get my skeleton key. I cannot wait to see it grow this spring.
I love Epipremnum Skeleton key! I've never found one in stores but it's quite common among private sellers for low amounts of money here in Sweden.
