    Following on from a video I made about a month ago I wanted to take the time to focus a little bit more in depth on one (two) of my favourite plants. The Philodendron billietiae is becoming a staple in the aroid collector world and I wanted to put a bit of info together about this plant.
    I have both of these plants in a chunky (but not tooooo chunky) mix of bark, perlite, coconut coir and perlite and they are happy for the time being!

    I love how you only give out information that you're certain about and not everything you can find on the internet, like decided not to put a picture of the inflorescence. Unlike some who gives out misinformation in their video, yet still think it wasn't a big deal when they get criticised, and continue to do the same thing for their next video. Btw I'm loving all these frequent uploads!! Please don't stop!!

      Ah thank you! Yes I’m not a botanist but I really do my best to be more or less certain about the information I share. I’m glad you appreciate it! 💚🌱

      James ArmstrongW it was! It came from Indonesia and roots were in a bad condition. I had to cut some of them and put it in sphagnum. It looks well after traveling to Germany first and then to Poland.

  • @sophiebaldwin191
    @sophiebaldwin191 4 года назад +1

    It is a favourite leaf shape of mine and your info was really useful to know James as I had always imagined they were another one of those plants that I wouldn't be able to provide the right conditions for- thankyou!

  • @victorabadio9169
    @victorabadio9169 4 года назад +7

    I NEED one! Funnily (and sadly) enough, it's harder to get that (and other native species) here in Brazil because of laws that prohibit propagation for profit of protected species. Crazy.

    • @JamesArmstrongPlants
      @JamesArmstrongPlants  4 года назад +1

      That’s really interesting to know! Glad the species are being protected but n’amuse be frustrating for you! Thanks for watching! 🌱🌱

    So gorgeous! Just bought one after seeing this video. Just wondering whether you'd advise I stake it to a moss pole right away to get larger leaves more quickly (it's slightly smaller than your variegated one), or should I wait until it's larger to try stake it? Also does it make a difference if I use a moss pole or just a bamboo stake?

  • @rbtkng2438
    @rbtkng2438 4 года назад

    I didn’t know that there was a variegated version. I have the standard version and it’s one of my favorites with almost 12” leaves. Now I’ll have to start shopping. Thanks.

    Hey 👋 I Hope you are doing okay that days. I have a question maybe you can help me since I saw that you got few philodendron billietiae. I bought I plant and it arrived with rootrot. Luckily, cutting of the roots was fine and it has a additional unrooted airial root. From your experiences: is there any promising propagation method? May you have some idea. That would be awesome ☺️

    I really love mine I got it last year from Thailand and it has done very well. I have it under a grow light and I let it completely dry out before watering it. Well I guess I wait till the meter is in red so maybe it’s not completely dry. But anyways mine has pushed out two huge leaves so far. I think I got it in November

    My Billietae keeps dropping leaves. They get yellow and eventually fall off. I don’t know why. I water it when ever the top soil is dry and it ihr in a lights spot with even a few hours of winter sun. I’ve moved it now and hope that things might change :(

    • @brenfays3255
      @brenfays3255 4 месяца назад

  • @shanejtan
    @shanejtan 4 года назад

    Both your billietiaes look amazing! Haha I ordered a normal one from Indonesia (I did an unboxing on RUclips) but it didn't make it :( all the leaves dropped and it's in my greenhouse now reduced to a stump but I think the roots were quite rotten so not sure if it will survive at all :(
    Does your normal billietiae really live in 20/30% ambient humidity right now?! My plants would hate me if I ever dropped it that low, so yours must be super super acclimatised and hardy!
    Loved these care videos, keep them coming! :D

    I now have a Billietiae! It's about the size of an American quarter; it's a tiny little tissue culture and I hope it does well. I'm so nervous it isn't going to make it. The poor dear is so tiny and fragile.

    I got my philodendron billietiae plant 2 months ago with a small baby popping out the soil. However, 2 months have passed but the baby is a very slow grower. The leaf is still not out ☹ i don't know why. I put it indoors but near a window with a filtered light. Please help

    • @JamesArmstrongPlants
      @JamesArmstrongPlants  3 года назад +1

      ah there's a lot of information that isn't totally right in this video because it's a bit old - I talk about the correct pronunciation in more recent videos (Bill-y-ety-ay) And yes it was discovered by a French woman!

    The correct pronunciation is Billie-et-tea-yay or Bee-yet-tea-yay (like Kanye), not Bill-it-tie. No one says it right though. So no worries! Gorgeous plants!

    After reminding yourself so many times about the correct pronunciation, you kept saying it wrong :)
    The discovered of this plant herself said this needs to be pronounced "billie-ye-ti-ye".
