My Brasil recently died for no apparent reason. I couldn't detect any pests and I think I got the watering OK. Somehow, gradually all its leaves faded, shrivelled and then fell off.
Yesterday I bought a new one, hoping for better luck this time! It was only 4 € but it is very bushy and mature. Can't wait to see it grow!
What type of light was it getting?
Thanks for an easy to watch plant care and propagation video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for showing the way to cut for cuttings to propagate. So many I watched have just said cut here and you can't see because their hand is in the way or just cut on or near a node and I'm a beginner so I'm not sure where to cut. Great video. ❤
Thanks so much for watching!
excellent video I love this plant but haven’t had the most success with it, but I’m gonna keep trying. Beauty gets worth it. Thanks for sharing. Flo
Soon as I saw your opening video I saw what the advantage is! Plants love light and you have an incredible amount of light source on those plants in that area! Beautiful plants!
Very timely since I'm going to repot my Brasil today. Thanks!
Good luck!!!
Thank you for all the knowledge!!! Good stuff! ❤
Thanks for watching my videos!!!
WOW...thank you from the UK. Got my first P. Brasil. Your videos are incredible. Xx
Great Jeff!!!! Just great!!!
Thanks Elmer
I used the direct soil method for rooting. Love it. It takes patience and remembering to keep the soul moist but not satirated.
Glad to hear it has worked for you as well!
Thank you for this video! Your Brasíl is one of my favorites in your collection. She really is lovely. Happy growing! 👌🪴🥰
Thanks Peggy. This one has gone through a lot.....mainly thrips 😳
I Grew Mine From A Piece I Found On The Floor In Lowes. IT Was Trailing Down Below The Shelf It Was On To The Shelf Below Where I Have Succulents Growing... SO I Cut IT!!! I ALSO Staked It Up On One Of Those Green Plastic Trellis You Showed... SO IT Could Get More Light... I DON'T Mind My Plants GR💚WING Upwards And Trailing Downwards In The Same P💚T!!!
That is so awesome!
That's awesome lol I always look around plants for dropped pieces. No luck yet
I always say beautiful and amazing plant you always have even your video very interested lovely lovely collection
Thanks for ALL the comments you leave for my videos. It is greatly appreciated.
Look forward to your videos Jeff👏
Thanks Anne!
Hi Jeff, interesting. I also use a granular systemic when potting me “ keeper “ succulents it works very well keeping the bugs away. I’m still learning the tricks of caring for indoor plants , so I find your videos most helpful . Cheers 👍😎🪴😃
I'm glad to hear they are helpful! Thanks Margaret
I just bought a 2 leaf cutting of a Rio. I hope that I can grow it as big as your Brazil.
It will take some time, but worth it.
Thanks, your plant specific guidelines are really helpful!
I just love this plant! My leaves are getting smaller on my new growth. I should probably check the roots
Ya. I would and it could possibly be a nutrient deficiency, light or watering issue
Great video! I just bought a Heartleaf Philodendron and it was water logged and in the wrong type of soil (why do greenhouses do this!). I repotted it and am propogating some cuttings in water and I'll see how successful they are soon.
any updates on the cuttings successfully adapting with the mother plant? I also don’t want to individually repot each cutting lol
Twice I've lost a Brasil to thrips so I've given up. It's a shame because I really love how they look.
Thrips are the worst. This one had thrips, but I treated with systemic
@@EverythingPlants I really tried to save mine too but eventually gave up and tossed them, to keep them from infesting other plants. Frustrating!
@@heatherdegreeff1092 next time literally cut the leaves/stems back and it will regrow.....that is IF there is going to be a next time
Wonderful video 😊
Thanks Terra
Where can I get some of the systemics. I also live in Canada and been dealing with thrips for awhile and feel like I'm losing the battel.
I got it online from Home Depot. I’m in the US in Connecticut & for some reason it’s one of the few states they can’t sell it or ship to. I ordered it online & did store pickup in Massachusetts which is a bordering state. I haven’t had any pest issues with the exception of mealybugs on my hoyas since I started using it.
@@Jameson77777 I tried getting some from Amazon in Ct and they wouldn’t deliver…but I’m not making a trip out of state just for a that but if I head to Massachusetts I’m going to Home Depot what did you get?
@@lgarden7086 I have family in Mass so it wasn’t out of the way for me. I got Bonide systemic & picked it up at the Springfield store. I did have to order online & ship to store, pretty sure the store doesn’t stock it.
Ditto, in Canada and am also hoping someone sells it. My next trip to the US isn’t soon.

Can you do a care video for hoya polyneura. Please
Yup lol
I have a philodendron brasil and it’s growing out of control, which is great! But! I live in a one bedroom apartment and do not have room to have all these vines all over the place. And it’s getting flat on top like yours. I want to prune it, but I’m worried I’m going to cut too many vines and shock it. Is it possible to cut “too much”? Thank you for this video. Great idea about how to fill out the top and keep the roots happy.
Hi, Jeff will correct me if I am wrong, but You can prune as much as you like. As long as there is a leaf and node, anyway. The plant will push new growths aside and make it bushier. I did it to mine, not long ago. Hope it helps.
@@nadine_double_v9901 thanks. I’ve been putting off pruning mine but am going to try it today. I did a quick google search and saw a few things that say not to trim more than ⅓ to ½ of the plant. Not sure how they’re figuring half of the plant. Like half of the overall stems? I’ll do a few and see what happens! 🤞
Hi your philodendrons look happy in clay pots. Do you recommend? I just transplanted a new spider plant into a clay pot. The store soil staying too wet.
Clay pots dry out quite quickly.... I would suggest first changing the soil to something quite light and well draining. If you have a good draining soil then typically you don't need a clay pot.... I just like the look of them
Yes I keep all of my succulents in clay pots outdoors with well draining soil mix. Then I can allow soil to dry out b4 watering again. I was just curious about the clay for indoor plants that don’t like wet feet. My Alocasia came in a clay pot and seems quite happy though it does dry out faster than the plastic inserted into ceramic. I just trimmed my Philo Brasil and will wait a bit to transplant it while I attempt to propagate those cuttings. Your Brasil is stunning and the video is inspiring confidence. Thank you.
Hello - Love that I found your channel! Do you water in the new cuttings at all after you push them in with the existing plant? Or just waiting until the regular watering day?
I did give it a light watering where those cuttings were. Now I'll wait to see if they survive haha
@@EverythingPlants Thanks Jeff! I will watch for updates 🙂
Hi Jeff , I thought systemics were banned here in Canada? I can't seem to find them anywhere , whould you know of anyplace I could find some?
Hey! It's not banned but no one sells it here. I bought mine off a FB group that sells it from BC
I can't find systemics. Whenever I get a new plant I wipe it down with hydrogen peroxide, straight from the bottle. So far I haven't had any issues other than gnats. I have a pet lady bug that moved in last week and I don't have any gnats now though either lol...
I've wondered with systemics if it makes the plant even more dangerous if a pet takes a bite. My dog leaves the plants alone but on occasion he's playing and one touches his tail and he bites it for the booty floof attack. Fortunately he hasn't got sick but the systemics make me suffer if it would be more dangerous for pets.
Ya, I haven't read the small print....but I'm sure it wouldn't be good for pets. Thankfully my pets don't bother my plants
@@EverythingPlants lol mine only does if it grabs him first! 🤣
Just to clarify, do you cover the stem as well as the roots when repotting a leaf cutting? Or does the stem have to be above the soil and only the roots covered?
I put the stem under the soil and I've never had any issues!
So you fertilize every time you water?
💚💚
Brasils and micans refuse to live under my care...
What do you think is the issue?
@@EverythingPlants it doesn't seem I can figure out their watering scedule... When I think I got the hang of it, they suddenly die..
How much systematic granules should i use
Just follow the recommendation on the back of the bottle
Thank you
My regular heartleaf philodendron is my fastest growing plant, but I don’t do well with the propagations. I water the mama plant 2 days before I take the cuttings and root them in water. It takes forever to grow roots. The leaves start getting brown spots and getting very thin/translucent. I’d say only about half of the cuttings made it last time. Do you have any suggestions? I think they aren’t growing roots fast enough but I don’t know why!
Are they getting enough light? Do you have a water softener. They usually a very quick to root in water
Your root pruning traumatizes me every time 🤣🤣🤣
I prefer Terra cotta pots as well even my fiddle is in one. They are less tippy and I've never had root rot in one, plus from an environmental perspective it's all natural unlike plastic. They're also oddly very inexpensive even for a larger size. If I water in place the little terracotta tray water just gets absorbed up by the pot 🤷🏼♀️ and from a visual point I can pull out a pot that's 10 or I can buy a brand new one and they match! No worry about trying to find pots that match!
Oh it will be fine.....a little chop here and there never hurt anyone hahaha
excellent video I love this plant but haven’t had the most success with it, but I’m gonna keep trying. Beauty gets worth it. Thanks for sharing. Flo
