    I never thought of saving/drying the flowers my plants produce! That's such a great idea!

    I love lipstick plants but man, they make such a mess. I am in a constant state of picking up dropped flowers all day long because it blooms ALL THE TIME. I love them. But they shed more than my cats.

    Thanks for this video! Great tips ....my lipstick plant is hanging on by a thread it goes through so many phases and right now it’s not doing well. I pulled it away from so much direct light...thanks for that. I’m with you on the peace lily! Mine came to me as part of a florist arrangement I planted it in its own pot and it keeps growing leaves but not a single bloom yet. I’m going to repot it in a larger pot and maybe even try to divide it in spring before I throw in the towel. I am super excited about my CLIVIA right now🤞is spiking some blooms for the first time and I’ve had it for at least 3 years. I think giving it the cold treatment for a month did the trick.

    Awesome! Thanks! 🙏 😎 I’d never heard of any of those plants before! I’ll have to check them out sometime! I love learning about the wide diversity of houseplants with you! I am lucky enough to have a Christmas/Thanksgiving Cactus, and that plant is a joy! Right when the days start getting shorter, it’ll erupt in blossoms so you don’t feel quite so crap about it being dark so early! I also want to mention to everyone that snake plants will occasionally surprise you with a magical stalk of white flowers with curly petals and a one-of-a-kind aroma. I’ve only seen mine, which is around 25 years old, bloom maybe once or twice, but it’s so cool when it happens! Best!

    Hi Nick! I would love to have more flowering plants, but for now I have 2 regular Peace Lilies, a larger one that blooms quite often and a smaller one that hasn't bloomed yet. I hope to find a Domino one this year. I, also, recently purchased an African Violet that had lime green flowers, which have all died, but hoping it blooms again. One of my Hoyas, I think it is a Publicalyx, has bloomed a few times over the past maybe 10 years and smells so good. I just wish it bloomed more often. I have several Phalaenopsis orchids, hoping they will bloom again. I'm hoping to find a Thanksgiving/Christmas/Easter cactus this year. I love their flowers. I couldn't find one last fall. The plants you showcased are now on my wish list. Stef Hall said the Hoya Multiflora blooms for her often, so I ordered, and received one, along with a Hoya Bella and a Hoya Carnosa Crimson Queen. I'm hoping they will all flower for me! Thank you so much for sharing with us! I love seeing more videos from you!

    I have a Persian Shield (Strobilanthes dyerianus) is a beautiful plant with neon purple and green leaves (I bet you Nick that you would like this leaf colour) but then it started flowering with these little cone shaped light purple flowers over and over! The old flowers are kind of a pain to pick up but this plant is so lovely I don’t mind. I have mine in a south/west window in Northern Nevada USA.

    I grow my orchid in bark in a clear plastic pot. The wat I know when it needs watering is when I see the roots turning silver, then I thoroughly soak it.

    • @stephaniem6283
      @stephaniem6283 5 лет назад

      I do this as well, I find the clear pots super helpful. When watering I leave it sit in water for about 20 - 30 mins, let it drain out completely then it's good to go for another week or so.

      @julieturnbull5241 5 лет назад

  • @poples5799
    @poples5799 5 лет назад

    I used to wait for my peace-lily to to hang its leaves before watering it, but I have come to realise it's actually a really thirsty plant, so at first sign of the leaves not looking as perky as normal, I water, and I think it's enjoying that a lot more, so now it flowers more, with bigger flowers for me, and I never let its leaves hang down :)
    Flowering houseplants I really like that you didn't mention; african violets and anthuriums. Pretty basic, but they do really well for me, and I love their colourful displays.

    If I’m right that epiphyllum is called Disocactus ackermanii. I have one and it’s been a slow grower. Hopefully this summer it’ll start growing. Mines about a 10-12 inch hanging pot and it’s gorgeous. I had to buy it the moment I saw it.

  • @colorblox4942
    @colorblox4942 5 лет назад

    I've been growing houseplants for some while now, but I didn't know that there are orchids with nice foliage. I might have to look into that. I haven't had luck with orchids until now, but I think I had them in too low light. Everybody keeps saying that they don't need much light, so it's really interesting that you have yours in bright light. I got a new phaleonopsis with cute smaller flowers yesterday, trying again. This time I put it in front of an east facing window, we'll see how it goes. I love the flowers, but I don't like looking at a naked stem for too long when the flowers eventually fall of.

    I can not make my lipstick plant happy! I noticed the top soil was growing mold?! So I removed the top soul and replaced it. Happened again. Reported it all together and got rid of some dead branches. Knowing that you shouldn't really do that in the winter,did it anyways since I thought the plant would at least appreciate some fresh soil and a trim. Now she is just losing even more leaves and acting like it is over watered or under watered. It is in a plastic nursery pot,so I got a terracotta one. I'm waiting a little while to fiddle with it since I don't want to stress it out too much,but I'm scared it's going to die. HELP? any suggestions would be amazing thanks
