    Such an underrated channel, the YT algorithm needs to wake up and spread this to the masses like some beautiful wildflowers. Earth is my planet!

    When you say "Earth is my planet" it feels like a call and response so I say it right back 😂

    Love the elephant ear. The more water they get the bigger they will be. Good luck

    12:30 I just recently got a "coral black" elephant ear myself! It's a very dark purple, almost black color, and it's absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to see how yours grows

    I'm in Houston, near Pearland/Mo. City, I have a huge tree philodendren. I never do anything to it (except that big freeze a few years ago, I cut off some of the parts that looked dead). I have had good luck with asian jasmin (just took cuttings, threw in yard and lightly watered at first). Other "no care" plants in our area I have had success with are hibiscus, sansevieria, crepe myrtles, orange trumpet vine, foxtail fern, southern magnolias and poison ivy.

    20$ for that plant???? still too much... dont you have any local "family-owned" plant store there? or maybe you should start one lol

    • @MagicalZach
      @MagicalZach 3 месяца назад

      Great video , expensive plants. Checkout some local nurseries, fames, or Native plant societies that have sales. Usually can find cheaper plants.

    Rethink the Yucca bro, they are horrible when they get big and extremely hard to remove.

    • @cromulentparty
      @cromulentparty 3 месяца назад

      The roots can also disrupt house foundations.

    Palm at 7:30 is a Livistona chinensis, looking good!!! Also at 15:31 I'm pretty sure that's a Chamaerops humilis. Would need a little closer look though. If you're looking for tropical hardy shade palms, look into Chamaedorea microspadix and radicalis! They would def be hardy in Houston, they're hardy in my yard in San Antonio.
