    The assorted foliage plant from target is called a plumosa fern A.K.A asparagus fern native to south Africa and despite its name is not a true fern. They are hardy and popular as a house plant 🌱

    Really appreciate the chat on anxiety - I have to remind myself in the same way “is this happening, what proof is there (none)” and my favorite “okay I’m anxious, that’s not going to cause any of these thoughts to actually happen, it’s just a feeling I’m having now.” Love the longer vlogs, perfect way to relax after a long day!

    I'm so late to watching this, there was a lot of life things and now I'm spending time catching up on it all. But you're quote "Is it happening now? Then it's not happening" is honestly so helpful for me, I tend to get really anxious about things happening in the future and I feel like this is a mindset I need to actively work on. Thanks for being so open about these kinds of things! It truly helps to know so many others understand how it feels

  • @mightilyconfused
    @mightilyconfused Год назад +5

    For the plants: the first one you showed that always makes me think “fluffy” is an asparagus fern. I would keep it inside. It tunnels underground and creates roots that are such a bear to get rid of.
    The second plant is an arrowhead plant, or a syngonium. Also a super easy plant to care for.
    Neither of the plants are pet friendly if they eat the plant, but if Jake or Ginger aren’t plant chewers, then you should be okay. 😊

    • @oliviareadsalatte
      @oliviareadsalatte  Год назад +2

    @houseoflenormand1275 Год назад +1

    The second plant that you said looks like an elephant ear is a Syngonium Podophyllum and the one you have looks like the White Butterfly variety. It is a vining plant, so as it matures you'll see it will develop aerial roots which you can train to grow on a moss pole, or you can propagate to make more plants. Also- as the plant matures the shape of the leaf will change and develop tri-leaves. Syngoniums LOVE living in LECA (Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate) as a growing medium using a semi hydro/passive hydro system as they are semiaquatic plants, but they'll do just fine in soil as well (you can get a small bag at IKEA, it's called ODLA). Best of luck with the new plants and I hope that was helpful.

  • @sarahschultz90311
    @sarahschultz90311 Год назад

    I think the first plant you showed (at 28 minutes) is an asparagus fern, it has that very leafy texture. Both plants look to be in amazing shape, I’m surprised by the quality from target! And the second plant (with heart shaped leaves) definitely looks like some variety of syngonium, maybe white butterfly? I would just watch out if your pets are plant nibblers, because the syngonium could cause some issues. I’m not 100% certain but I think most ferns are ok for pets if they do decide to snack on them. (I go to the aspca plant toxicity guide for a pretty complete list of plants, in case you are curious about others). Thank you for this super long vid, I don’t mind having something so long because it makes the day-job go by quicker! 😊

    Hpapy belated Birthday! I really love these longer vlogs, they are so comforting to me. That last chat re: thinking so far ahead is something that really takes up a lot of my mental energy too. I literally was discussing it with my therapist just yesterday. She reminded me that mental & emotional energy spent has the same impact as physical energy spent. So when I spend energy living in fear of what I've already survived in the past or what might happen in the future I am running myself ragged. She advised that I have permission to be aware of, then intentionally choose when I don't want to spend energy on thoughts that will exhaust me before I get a chance to do the things I REALLY want to do with my time.

    As a fellow anxiety sister, specifically health anxiety, here are my strategies that work sometimes.
    1) affirmation: I am healthy and I am safe. Repeated over and over again
    2) if I convince myself that something is wrong, I call my friend who’s a doctor
    3) if that doesn’t work, I go workout super hard in public so if something happens, trained professionals are there to help.
    Health anxiety is scary but you are not alone ❤
