  • Two fairly popular large houseplants that you can often find are Ficus and Clusia, but what you can find on the market is often limited. Chad Husby, Chief Explorer and botanical horticulturist at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Gardens, takes us through the many different forms of Ficus and Clusia-two very cool genera that we can now appreciate even more!

    Here in Brazil I have already try to root some Clusia fluminensis cuttings from my neighborhood gardens leftovers, and it can really take some time to root in water, like months. The last one that I have tried, a variegated cultivar, I just putted in a pot and keep it moist, it seems that its working. About the Princess cultivar, it looks like a species that occours here in south Brazil called C. criuva. It have the same 'diamond' shape, were the leaves are close to the round regular ones, but with a tip.

    Ficus pseudopalmera or the false palm fig is the second most important vegetable in Bicol, Philippines (after Colocasia esculenta). We cook its tops as vegetable but the fruits are also sweet. What a great variety of figs in this garden. Chad's very knowledgable and he's so generous to give fruits! Thanks for touring us around!

    The ficus sagittata doesn’t stop at limestone, the one in my terrarium can fully attach and support itself on the bare glass. I actually was inspired to get it from your episode on the queen sirikit botanic garden’s limestone endemic plant conservatory.

    Have never ever heard of the Ficus species from S. E. Asia. They are such beautiful landscape type plants! I’ve seen a type of strangler fig growing in south coastal central Florida...right down town Vero Beach. Didn’t realize that banyan was not a specific species name. Very interesting video. Learned quite a bit about the genus Clusia, too. I’m not very familiar with them.

    Is ficus Sagittata just ficus radicans under a different name?, they look oddly familiar.

    These trees wouldn't be very happy with the zero carbon policies that are being pushed. No living organism would be. Carbon is food for all life.

    • @lupuandrei1646
      @lupuandrei1646 Год назад

      Most plants perform worse with more carbon it s like overwatering, yes water is essential for plants but too much not so much

    • @christinelarkin8054
      @christinelarkin8054 Год назад +1

      You're right, but plants can't survive on zero water either. Most of what is killing plants comes from the heavy metals that are being sprayed in our air.

    • @lupuandrei1646
      @lupuandrei1646 Год назад

      @@christinelarkin8054 well they produce carbon too and the steady production by natural decomposition of plant matter is more then plenty, and some love absorbing metals using them in proteins yet not all of them and it s definitely stupid to release metals in the atmosphere

    • @pattheplanter
      @pattheplanter Год назад +2

      Nobody is suggesting removing all CO2 from the atmosphere, just zero carbon being added from industrial and agricultural practices. Plenty of carbon being produced from other sources for plants to be very happy.

    • @jonstfrancis
      @jonstfrancis Год назад +1

      Cutting down on our carbon emissions would be a good thing but other than telling us to turn the light off it isn't going to happen. However, planting millions of trees would combat it which is what some countries are doing now like China, so you are kinda right.
