    Hi, Harli- I am 72 years old and have grown plants for most of my adult life. However, I have been learning so much from your videos each time I watch them! Thanks! I think you're kind and funny and an excellent speaker. And you have a green thumb!

    This is exactly how I kept wishing other videos would go, when they're about plants in the home and their ighting! It would be so frustrating when they would bring the plants all in one place rather than show the actual lighting conditions it could live in. Made it much harder to grasp the concept of light. Thanks so much! For sure wouldnt hate seeing videos like these for more plants 😅🙈

    I impulse-bought another golden pothos a couple months ago because it was just so big and beautiful already, I couldn’t resist. I’ve proceeded to leave it in my bathroom with really low, north light covered by a blind because I don’t know where to put it, and she is THRIVING. It’s wild. She’s grown more in 2 months than my other one has-one I’ve had for a lot longer in way better light. Go figure lol.

    @In.my.red.headdd 3 года назад

    When I first got into houseplants, I neglected to determine what direction my window faces. So I got some low-light tolerant plants, thinking it was the best option. My plants started burning and needing more water. I eventually pulled up the compass app and my window is 100% facing South. I’m glad my ZZ plant and (especially) my sanseverias are happy anywhere in the room, because now they kinda filter the sunlight and prevent my lower-light plants from burning!

    Hi Harli, I love a low light plant, I have a lot of Pothos, and where I have them they seem to be okay, they do get light from my east and north facing windows, my Golden Pothos gets light from my south facing window, she is about 15 feet away and seems happy, I also have the Pothos N Joy and the Manjula, they are only 3 feet away from the window but off to the side and they are super happy there as well. I also have 13 Syngoniums that are about 4 feet away from that south facing window and seem to be just fine there as well, they are not directly in front of the window they are off to one side. Thanks for another great video, take care, it is always so good to see you, sending love and hugs, bye for now.

    Your lucky to have all that light. My house is very dark and I struggle to keep plants happy unless they are by the window. My living room is very dark I can't even grow anything in there and running lights can get expensive on the energy bills. My kitchen is about the only room where I can grow plants and I get some light at the bedroom window. I'd love to be able have plants all around my house but I can only put them where there is light. Here in the UK dark homes are quite common. Your darkest corner is probably my brightest spot.

  • @MedorraBlue

    I love the pothos! I've been struggling to keep plants alive in my apartment... it's a basement unit, and incredibly dark, even with all of my "windows" (if you can even call them that) open wide. The only main windows have shrubs in front of them, or are facing other buildings, so not a single window in my house gets direct sunlight! I went and got a grow light and haven't had much success with herbs, but I'm hoping that I can finally make something work with low light specific plants...

My desk sits right across from it on the other side of the room, so I have a pothos and am always propagating plants on it. I really want to get a few larger plants for around the room! I just got my first monstera ( monstera deliciosa ) and am literally in love! I want more now!

Floppy thin leaves like a dracaena he kept picking at so we keep that away from him. We have no tips cause it doesn't matter what we tried, he still will find a way to get to it. We just now buy plants that have stiffer leaves and he has no interest in them. We also relocated the plants he picks at to a different room which we keep closed

    Hi Harli! Your low light plants all look so health and pretty. Is it Morgan's plants you're talking about? I've missed seeing her in your videos and would like to see a tour of her plants. If not Morgan, I'd still like to see a tour. LOL! Thank you so much for sharing your low light plants!

    i love how your white butterfly looked in your bathroom 😍I only gave mine North light from above for about a month & all the small leaves under the big ones died off, it looked like a small umbrella😂

    The cardboard palm reminds me of a ZZ! Would love to see a tour of your sister's apartment.

    I have a golden Pothos on my fridge, nowhere near a window and the main plant is right under a spot light and I kid you not, it’s doing so so well from that normal spot light 🤯🤯
