    I stuck mine straight into the soil and water it as I do with all my other plants outside or in a pot and have never had any issues with root rot. You just need good drainage. It is pretty hard to kill this plant. I got a lot of pieces from a friend's yard and I left them sitting for almost a week out of soil and water before I was finally able to plant them and they are all growing like crazy. Just know you will constantly be trimming this back as it grows rapidly and can take over an area or pot rather quickly. But if you are looking for some type of ground cover to fill an area or for full, lush planters, or maybe you can't be around flowers, then this plant is one that will work for that beautifully.

      @AhselAnneCrochet  6 лет назад +6

      Yes Thank you! I have to agree the one I just planted in a pot outside has been growing like crazy. I can almost make a whole new plant from the original cutting. I wish I could take credit, like I have a green thumb but I think this plant is just really hardy. lol. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Thank you for doing this video! I have an emotional reason for this that I would like to share with you. My mom died in Nov. 2000, that very same year she told me her real dad was Jewish. May 2001 I was diagnosed w/MS and neeless to say I was a wreck. My friend wanting to cheer me up took me to a yardsale (I had never been to one before). At this yardsale was a beautiful plant that I really felt drawn to, the lady doing yardsale told me the name of the plant and I was overcome with emotion, it was the wondering jew , I didn't blink I bought the plant. Unfortunately, sometime after I had the plant, I put the plant outside for some sun, and that night there was a freak Tennessee freeze and although I did everything I could to save the plant it died. It has been 18 years since I had that plant and seeing this video made me gasp when I saw the plant and heard the name! It made me think of my mom and how much comfort this plant brought to me. Again thank you for making this video, thought I would share this with you...you never know what someone will receive from a RUclips video. :)

    Hey! I just did the same experiment with my Wandering Jew. You did wonderfully! I want to share a tip that worked well for me: change the water every 2-3 days to make sure the water doesn’t grow bacteria. By the end of the first week, my cuttings had roots. By the end of the second week they had massively long white roots. In the video, your water looks yellow so I think you should change the water more often or stick to the 2-3 day water change period. 😇 The roots will grow faster and stronger. 💪🏼 The cuttings that I put in the soil reacted exactly how yours did: started growing and rooting faster than expected! 😃 Thank you for sharing your video! It is great to know that I am not alone trying out these kinds of experiments.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  4 года назад +1

      Oh that's a great tip. Someone else pointed out that I had some leaves in the water too and that probably added to the water becoming contaminated some. Next time I'll root some, I'll do this tip. Thanks so much!

  • @seolu4630
    @seolu4630 5 лет назад +15

    I'm trying rescue one of these plants after it was left unwatered in an empty flat for about 3 months. The plant was fairly mature and quite leggy, but the stems have completely shrivelled up into tiny threads apart from the last third towards the tips, which are still very green and healthy. But now I've seen this video, I know what I can do. Thanks very much! I especially liked the before-and-after comparisons - I know what I can look forward to :)

    Wandering Jew actually does very very well in the sunlight. The variegated leaves often turn solid purple in sunlight and produce the most beautiful tiny pink flowers. We have grown it for years inside and outdoors in the garden. It survived a few 113* days this summer as well as about three months of almost straight triple digit weather. No rain either. Of course I have to water it, but it does very well on its own.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  4 года назад +1

      I've found what you just mentioned to be so true. Mine did really well outside. Thanks for sharing. I hope others will try to grow it in sunny locations. This is a pretty plant.

    @emilysummers8615 4 года назад +3

    Thanks for the video! I really appreciate the results! I'm propagating the same plant now, and I had more success in water with direct light. In general, it's best to get rid of any leaves that will be below the water line- it helps prevent rot.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet

    Good job! I just took a few stems from a huge hedge outside my pharmacy today (that was especially dark purple) and plunked the nodes into water. I love how easy these are to propagate, and in no time at all you have new houseplants to keep or share the "sheen" with! I've loved this plant since I was a teenager, and the feeling never gets old even 50 years later! Have fun and thanks for sharing, your video(s) are informative and interesting. Well done! 👍❤

  • @donnaallen2207
    @donnaallen2207 2 года назад +6

    I know this is a older video, but I wanted to add that this plant is so easy to grow that I've just laid the plant cuttings with the leaves side up on soil and after a short time it's rooted and spreads like wildfire. I grow this in my flower bed with morning sun and afternoon shade with great outcome as well. My plant always grow better and faster in soil than in water, but I don't fertilize the ones in water like I do the ones in soil. Has anyone used fertilizer in their plant that stays in water, if so what do you use? Thank you so much for your help, I've learned so much about certain houseplants that I've been scared to grow in the past. ❤️

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  2 года назад +2

      H!i I had the same results when I put this plant outside. It grows, almost like a weed. Not so great inside the house, though. It got leggy for me, in the house. I think I should have tried some balanced- low-strength fertilizer for the water propagation once it developed roots. Maybe I'll try this as an experiment. 💚

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I didn’t know you could just pop it into the soil before it had roots! I’ll be trying that outside to use as a ground cover in a shady area during summer. I don’t think it will make it through the winter (zone 8), so I’ll take some cuttings indoors in late fall. I’ll keep it growing inside until I can move it outdoors again next spring! Woohoo!

    @richtorres4902 2 года назад +1

    This was very helpful. I like how you tried different ways of propagating it and showed the results of each one. I was given some starters of a wandering jew plant, which was doing well up until recently. It started to wilt from the root but the ends still look healthy. I suspect it may have been over watered with a little help from my family. I'm hoping to save it by using the technique you showed in the video.

    One way I’ve found good success with the soil method was using a good peat moss mix in a red soil cup, take another red soil cup and place it underneath your planted and perforated red solo cup. In between those 2 cups take something like a soda bottle cap. That is my mini bottom watering propitiation system on a budget :)

      @saralynnroze01 4 года назад

      Swain Gang I got one today at Walmart but it looks so weak. I feel like it’s just a bunch of cuttings in a pot. When you pull them they come right out and the stems seem very fragile. I’m hoping with time they will strengthen. I’m assuming as easy as it is to propagate maybe they will grow stronger roots on their own.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  4 года назад

      It will strengthen. Especially, if you have a sunny window (bright light) it will flourish. Mine did really well when I put it outside but I think a sunny window or a bright room will work too. 🙂

      AhSel Anne what kind of area are you in? These do good year round outside in my area from what I gather (I just got my first one)... I’m in the Sonoran low desert of Phoenix AZ... and I understand they do good in shade with only morning sun ... but I’ve seen people grow the kind that is solid purple in full sun in the ground in their front yards here in the desert... but this kind I’ve never seen growing in full sun... great work by the way ... doing a comparison is really helpful... anything that can be stuck into soil or a long term location is good to know about ... there are pluses and minuses to transplanting cuttings from water or a small temporary container

  • @ArayahIru
    @ArayahIru 3 года назад

    Appreciated seeing this type of video because I bought a massive Zebrina Pendulae and it kept growing and then the plant started terminating some of its vines. So I trimmed it and was not sure if I could just place the cuttings in soil. The water was initially how I started. But they started decaying and no roots after 2 weeks. So I saved what I could and placed them in dirt.
    Has anyone else dealt with a situation similar to that?

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  3 года назад

      It's been some months now, how did your plant turn out. Water rooting has been a 50-50 experience. Sometimes it roots other times its roots. I found using bottled water or filter water works the best. Or water that has been sitting around for a few days🙂

  • @charleen8165
    @charleen8165 2 года назад

    Wandering Jew loves the sun. I propagate my wandering Jew by breaking off branches of it and sticking it straight into the ground and watering it good and it immediately puts on roots and I just keep spreading it all around in my yard by snapping the limbs off when they get too long and stick them in the ground somewhere else. I have flowerbeds full of them all over my yard. Some get at least six hours of sun some only get one or two hours of sun the more sun they get the deeper purple they become. Our family has been growing this Plant for over 100 years and find that they are very easy and low maintenance, don’t require a lot of water however they will grow like crazy when you do water them a bunch.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  2 года назад

      Awesome😊. I have a Purple Heart that grows the exact same way as you describe. I didn't know that the Wandering Jew and the Purple Heart were from the same family of plants so I didn't know how to grow it but you are so correct I put this plant into a pot outside and grew like crazy. I definitely learned something while trying to propagate this plant. Have a blessed day. Thanks for your comment. 💚

    I actually got a small cutting with a spider plant I got, it was under the pots inside the big pot, and well hopefully it grows, I wasn’t sure which one to get but I ended up with the spider plant, but it was like a two for one but hopefully it grows, wish me luck!

    Thank you for such a nice video. I learned so much that should help as I am extending the Purple Hearts indoors from the patio. My thoughts, after watching your video, would be to propagate in water and transfer to potting soil. How did that work for you?
    Also, outdoors we have these in most areas around the house with the greatest production coming from those in full sun lite during summer months. These are a very hardy plants, in the Houston region, that make a very robust statement about having the ability to over come difficult situations such as draught and hurricanes. We absolutely have fallen in love with the Wandering Jew. Thanks again for the video.

      Hey There. When I propagated straight into soil, outdoors, the wandering jew took off and grew like crazy. I just think it was too drafty in my home. While the plant did develop roots and I was able to transfer to soil it thrive much better outside. It's became leggy in the house. Thanks for watching and for your comment.🙂

      Those are probably baby gnats and you need to act fast or you may end up with a gnat problem 😫. You can try to dry out the soil some in between watering. Topping the soil with a pumice stone or something that will smother out the baby gnats. I've also read that you can top the soil with cinnamon (I've never tried this but I heard it works.

    Wandering Jew does well in soft, indirect sunlight. It will grow in bright sunlight but it bleaches the pretty green and purple colors. This plant makes a lovely ground cover especially under shady trees.

    Hi! Did that white pot have a drainage hole? Just curious how well your plants do with pots that don't have one, indoor or outside. I find very pretty pots (literally pretty soup urns etc.) at fleas and thrift stores and drill a hole in the bottom just so I have that drainage hole that real gardeners say are necessary. What's your take on this? Be well.

    • @AhselAnneCrochet
      @AhselAnneCrochet  3 года назад

      Hello!!! It actually didn't have a hole, and i was afraid to drill one because this pot felt like it was made from clay or something that would crumble under heavy pressure. I really just had to monitor the amount of water I placed. I ended up moving this plant into another pot because it got leggy and I replaced it with a Queen Marble Pothos. I water it every 7-12 days and it has done amazing, even without drainage holes.

    Hi, great video. Thanks for making a video with results. Oftentimes I watch a propagation video then wonder if it was successful. May I ask what type of soil are you using with this? Do you use a regular potting soil, potting soil with fertilizer or does it have to be a gritty soil that drains easily like the type used for succulents?
