My son brought home a purple tradescantia at the end of third grade (it had been his classroom plant). I plopped it on a windowsill and wished it good luck. To my surprise, it was quite happy and grew like mad. It's since been repotted and propagated, and the child plant is quite happy and healthy as well. With enough light the leaves become a gorgeous sparkling deep plum color.
Peace Lily, reduce light for a couple weeks, and put in a cool area (yes, you’ll loose a leaves), bring back to where you had it, it should bloom! (Don’t fertilize while it’s going to it’s Cool Off period! Just water!)
I bought a tiny Tradescantia Nanouk a few months back and potted it up straight away, left it by the window... Now it's absolutely massive that I had to pot it up again the other week into a large orchid pot, their roots are epic. If you look at it long enough you'll see it grow. That and my little grow your own polkadot I got from the range a while ago, it went from seed to tall in no time. I tied it to a stick last week, it was the same height, now it's 10cm above that. At least 1 of the 30 odd seeds in the bag woke up.
Good Morning Mr Sheffield!!! Thank you for sharing your faster growers!!! My Coleus that got shredded by unexpected hail are already leafing out and recovering 😊
🗣️Sheff! Your Pallida needs direct light for it to grow more compact and turn purple. It’s Oke to put it in front of a window. Tip for the moss pole plants that are growing off track. Get those hair clips what they use for orchids. You can then clip the internode to your pole to keep the plant on track. You only need one per plant to clip the new growth. Just move the clip up a node. You don’t need to spend too much money on the clips at the garden center. Just get them from the girl/women accessory isle. There are different sizes. And chances are that you’ll find them in a color to better match your plant so they can blend in
Oh I love purple palida. It grows fast, easy to care for and easy to propagate 🌱 peperomia rosso is one of my favorite : compact, easy and incredibly adorable❤ And I always stare at your begonia behind you ) it is gorgeous ~
I'd kill to have as much light as you do in your "dark" house . All of your rooms seem so bright even allowing for the presence of grow lights and you have good sized windows with nice deep window sills . Nice collection of plants well spaced out 🌱👍👍
I really like coleus. It comes in a rainbow of colors, grows fast and does very well indoors. I'll have to look into some of the plants you mentioned in this video. Thanks for making it.
I got my Peace Lily about 10 weeks back. He’s in the bathroom sitting on the bath. He’s just taken off soi think I’ll need to repot him around Christmas.
I imagined a scenario where this isn’t your house and you break into your neighbours house to film videos about plants. That scenario was also brought to you by the edible I took earlier.
Yay I want all of these now 😃 Mr Sheffield, I feel like you're making my plant obsession into a serious problem 😂 At least I already have a pothos. It got burned a bit under full spectrum plant lights but I moved it and now it's happy again
At last count I had 34, now I have 60. It's all Rich's fault. lol I started 3-4 months ago from scratch. I got a huge snake plant and found Rich and it has been plant fun ever since. Peace.
I have 2 of your “orange green” (we call them “orange blaze spiders” in my neck of the woods) growing in water for the last few years and haven’t ever had any issues with them. It’s one of my favorite plants and with most of my houseplants growing hydroponically or semi hydro, I’ve never had the bug problems that are apparently pretty common with lots of plants. When switching a plant to water only, some take to it like fish (Pothos, spiders, philodendrons, monsteras, anything that vines) and others need a bit of time and coaxing (palms, some dracaenas have been a bit slow, and my Pilea weren’t big fans, at first, nor was the dwarf umbrella, my colocassias took a number of nerve racking & heartbreaking minutes, but are going gangbusters, now). Every time I get a plant that I have real trouble with, I take a big cutting and try it in water, most of the soil plants hit the big bin in the sky long ago, but their clones go on like crazy. Some won’t get much bigger (even with nutrients), but it’s a great option for most plants that are of a size you’re very content with. Maybe I’m just lousy at watering (overwatering), but I have a tendency to get nervous when I can’t see the roots and will kill them with over fussiness. Hydro has saved me a ton of stress, but there’s still plenty of fussy fun to be had without tragic outcomes. I recently added a very inexpensive fish tank “bubbler” to my largest monstera, I don’t know if it will do anything positive, but it is pretty, kinda fun and the bubbles sound lovely 🤔. I revert to water only, every time I have a plant that I can’t seem to get right with light and soil. I was a dieffenbachia mass murderer before I plopped one into semi hydro, now I have a couple, thanks to cuttings. Worth a shot.🤷♀️
In my trial and error phase with my green orange plant. Love it and was so excited when I found one at my local nursery, but I keep having to move the grow light around to make sure I don’t burn the leaves. We will figure it out eventually. Love your videos, always bring a smile to my face 😊
I’m here for the fast growers! I have no patience and if I want a slower growing plant will spend more on a larger one, or get two or three and repot together.
That Tradescantia Nanouk is reverting, see where it's only green leaves. Good idea to pinch that back to get purple leaves back! Might not be getting enough light.
I have coleus in my house - green and pink! And they start sooo easy. Love it. l can sit them outside in the spring/summer if I want. Yeah. I love the one you have. Such color.
Rich thank you again for your valuable knowledge and humour. l have planted 3 different types of Coleus in my garden. Also i have planted 3 in a large planter in my garden. I live East Coast of Scotland so it will be interesting to see if they survive the cold winter, l will let you know next year.
I have a nepenthes Gaya and a Bill Bailey. They both love living under a grow light. I put my ping in Rocky/sandy soil and she has taken off too! She’s even flowering 🎉. Have to agree with the Hoya suggestion. I have several carnosa and they throw runners as you watch, I swear! 😂
I love your Nepenthes I believe it's a St. Gaya. I have a Nepenthes Ventrata and it's very fast growing and does very well on windowsills. I actually was able to do 3 basal cuttings and all 3 made it so I have 4 Nepenthes from one plant.
I am always excited to learn so many new things from your videos!! I am planning on trying the Philodendron Verroccosom, Alocasia Frydek and the Pitcher Plant. I am usually a bit afraid of the Alocasia 🥺 I just love my Oxylis. I will definitely let it go dormant this winter . I love my handsome Purple Oxylis 💜 Your videos are WONDERFUL!!
My starfish snake plant is the fastest growing plant I have, it's also very easy to take care of and propagate. I have 6 of them now. I got 2 off the original plant, and 1 from each of those propagated plants. One of the propagated plants is bigger than the original!
Hey Mistuh Sheffield !!! Greetings from Australia. Thought you might like to know that Peace lillies need Gibberellic Acid to flower. Garden centres/ growers use this make the lily flower so that they are more saleable. This can be expensive for a little bit of powder/liquid however. Hopw this helps?
My calathea orbifolia is actually growing a new leaf 😁 I just had to share that with someone. I certainly agree with those pothos being fast growing. My golden pothos hangs from the ceiling and it is almost to the floor in just one summer. I had to cut and repot my marble queen. 😢 she had been in that pot for three years and was starting to get yellow leaves. Hopefully she will start growing again soon. I hope my frydek grows fast. It is a baby but it is certainly growing roots. I have it in stratum right now. 😊
Out of the plants that I don't currently have and didn't even know about, I am definitely interested in these as my top 3 new additions: Tradescantia Tricolor Lipstick Plant Peperomia Santorini The pitcher plant intrigues me very much but I doubt I would be able to keep it alive with our cold dark winters unless I really dedicate a grow light to it for months on end.
@@SheffieldMadePlants I bought a "Rippled Leaf Peperomia" today that I encountered at the shop which Google seems to indicate is a Peperomia Caperata. It has the same looking long white stalks growing out the top of it. Hopefully it's close enough to the Santorini variety.
I agree with all these. I have two tradescantia varieties and they grow extremely fast and are very easy to propagate. I recently got a pothos that I’ve propagated twice. My peace lily grows fast too. My fern reached a certain size and doesn’t seem to be getting bigger, but it’s pretty big so no complaints. My monstera is on a moss pole. It seems to push out lots of leaves but tends to grow out, not up. Hmm. Thanks for this interesting video.
Hi, I have a pink tradescantia and it is still short after months just a tiny bit of growth. How did you get yours to grow so fast. I have a purple one and it grows like a weed. Thanks for any tip you share on the pink one. 🙂
I would add to fast growers Philodendron Florida, I have plain green version, grows like crazy, when I got it last year it was about 30 cm tall,now it’s about 150 cm and keeps growing (I do support it with grow lights during dark British winter months). I’m terrified with this plant!
My Satin Pothos seems to be fast growing for me. Its put on 12 inches (30cm) in probably 3 months. My Philodendron Pink Princesses (east facing window) has put out 3 new leaves over past 6 weeks or so. However the 1 under a grow light (away from window) put out 1 leaf in same time. Only problem is spider mites seem to love the PPP in the window.
Hello Mr Sheffield ! I see that you have a sarracenia witch is a swamp plant from North America, so if you put in full sun in a wide very wide pot and preferably outside(winter include) , this plant will be in your next ’’ fast growing plant’’ video.
There's this funny thing I've seen in the UK called terraced houses. 2m from your window might be enough light for a peace lilly, but 2m from my window is a dark cave in plant language.
I personally find the monstera esqueletto easier than the adansonii simply because the adansonii is so susceptible to thrips. I have 2 adansonii and both of them lost all their leaves to thrips, while my esqueletto didn't care much. And I find they grow at a similar speed. My verrucosum died after I cut it back... that plant really didn't want to live. My splendid, (melanocrysum x verrucorum hybrid) is doing amazing though! I usually find the hybrids easier, than the non hybrids, they seem to balance out their weaknesses when hybridized.
Well that was fun. I write down every plant you have so I can copy. lol Maybe. Rich, one in particular is the picture plant. I had the thing right in my hands, I thought it might be to fussy. You see my google is 1 1/2 hours away on my home computer. No cell phone. My Mom wanted it too and I said No. What an ASS! That's the same place I got my ring of fire so I'm not complaining. This was a great video. Besides myself I am sure lot's of plant people will find helpful tips in this video. I found out that philodendrons are slow growers, Thank God. I just transferred my dumb cane from water to soil, I hope he grows fast. Although beautiful, this video reminded me why I don't buy regular ferns or tradescantia's. I also like to add, that advice I took from Rich and applied has worked out wonders on my three potho's My global green, n-joy and golden potho babies have all did amazing being STAKED UP. I just love this man's common sense and knowledge. You have to make sure and video when it's time to transplant either that long devil or the hoya lisa that is intertwined with it. That will make great entertainment. Prayers, Peace and Love.
Hello Sir, I would like to know the size of your gray container you use for working with your plants. Love your channel and everything about it. Thank you. USA
Have you gone through the nepenthes rabbit hole yet? Im curious to see if you can figure out how to get it to grow well. The pitchers always die very quickly for me and the new ones never get as big as the originals that are there when you buy it.
Your peace Lilly could just react to certain circumstances instead of blooming on a pattern, my Dioscorea Elephantipes (completely different plant) has started developing leaves for the 3rd time this year already, don't know either what triggers it. I understood they make leaves one or two periods a year
@Mr. Sheffield, would you kindly share a foot candel reading off you light meter for the Mandarin plant(orange spider) I have one and I'm curious what your light is.
Do you know what species your Nepenthes is? Some need high Humidity to pitcher. Windowsill Nepenthes is a great channel to learn from all the does is Nepenthes videos and has helped me a lot.
@@comfortablynumb8832 I've seen those sold in store like that I would definitely separate them and your Nepenthes should start growing faster and pitchering more.
Richard...with your moss poles, how much water do you give them? if you have a 2-4 ft pole and the plants in a 6 in pot I'm guessing you're pouring water down the pole, but how do you know when to stop, and how much is to much???
Another quick question: Does philodendron Birkin plant grow slowly? Mine has two new leaves which came out two weeks before and they aren't growing, nor did I get any newer leaves.
Could your green/orange plant be a Chlorophytum Green Orange? Is a type of spider plant. Is beautiful whatever it is. I would love one but have never seen one in Saskatchewan, Canada
I have the alocasia pink princess and black velvet and one with black spots on the stems the I don’t know the name and the 3 more same I don’t know the names 😂😂😂
My Monsteras had 2 new leaves unfurling when they arrived around the end of June and are unfurling 2 new ones again. Maybe it's all the smooches and compliments they've been getting. 😂😂😂 BTW Sheffy, hows come you've never mentioned that Monsteras weep???
@@SheffieldMadePlants did 3 different searches and couldn't find anything. Was really surprised when mine started to weep. I've bottom watered into a shallow tray and all has been absorbed within a few hours. Soil is dry in about 7 days. Leaves are great ( insert me doing sign of crucifix here). Thought maybe it had something to do with the new leaves - remembered the troubles you have with your 1 plant needing misting to help it unfurl new leaves. Just kinda shook me, being a new Monstera momma and all.
I was checking some plants I own and I repotted two plants from their small pots to a slightly bigger one and then I found one tiny white worm crawling out of the soil. It was toooo tiny and I am scared if it's gonna damage the plant. I repotted jade and money plant but Idk which one it came from. Worms give me an ick. Can someone suggest what I can do (something easier) Also, is it due to over watering or something else? Does anyone know the reason? I haven't watered them for two weeks now, I gave them a water break so that the soil dries out a Lil.
I just cannot keep my Tradiscantia looking good at all unless I plant them in the ground and just let them crawl around, I’ve heard people say to cut it back etc I’ve done all of that but it’s still not growing just right!

THank you!
The little whispers to your costars had me laughing 😂. I think Gardening requires humor and loads of patience.. Doing great Mr. Moisturemeter 👏 👏 👏
😂
you talking to your plants makes me happy
My son brought home a purple tradescantia at the end of third grade (it had been his classroom plant). I plopped it on a windowsill and wished it good luck. To my surprise, it was quite happy and grew like mad. It's since been repotted and propagated, and the child plant is quite happy and healthy as well. With enough light the leaves become a gorgeous sparkling deep plum color.
Your sense of humor is too subtle 😂😂😂😂. you make me love my plants even more than my other pets.👌🏽
Cheers!
Please please please do a highlight video on growing a pitcher plant indoors. I have wanted to grow one inside but I'm so afraid I will kill it!
Peace Lily, reduce light for a couple weeks, and put in a cool area (yes, you’ll loose a leaves), bring back to where you had it, it should bloom! (Don’t fertilize while it’s going to it’s Cool Off period! Just water!)
Kind of like a Christmas cactus!
true! I think this applies to a lot of plants. they need to be cold(er) in order to bloom.
Lol mine just blooms every spring and fall. I think if it needed my intervention then it would just never bloom
I just cut back my cotton candy Boston fern while watching this video. I was so in my happy place.
Love all your side conversations with your plants 🤣😀🇨🇦
😁
I adore the Boston fern- even the variety name is adorable: "fluffy ruffles" Mine is enormous and super forgiving 😊

@ Make sure you are giving it enough light.

Hello Mr Sheffield ! I see that you have a sarracenia witch is a swamp plant from North America, so if you put in full sun in a wide very wide pot and preferably outside(winter include) , this plant will be in your next ’’ fast growing plant’’ video.
Thanks for your informative and hilarious content!😂 It’s the best way to learn, really.😅🙌🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful thumbnail. Love the colors!
Thanks!
This makes me want to buy more tradescantia on my trip to get a polka dot begonia 😊
Thanks for your tips ❤
The pinguicula needs a lot more light. Can even be in direct like for 4 to 6 hours a day and that's where I find the best growth😁
Woah, you actually got a monstera albo!
😊 great video. Lots of fun
Cheers!
I live yor video Quite helpful I downloaded your guide Anxious to see it🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hope you enjoy it!
Gorgeous plants!
There's this funny thing I've seen in the UK called terraced houses. 2m from your window might be enough light for a peace lilly, but 2m from my window is a dark cave in plant language.
I have so much tradescantia I could start a shop! I like to joke that it's annoying how much it grows but I think it's endearing 😂
You should try Maderia Vine ( Anredera cordifolia)
8:00 The Sarracenia there, is not hjappy. It's an outdoor plant and needs to be in a bigger pot too.
Well it's still alive
I love your pancake fern 😂
😅
2:14 I would think that one Ivy is at least 5 to 6 meters long which given the space is pretty big
The speed the Coleus grows at is almost too much, it's crazy
coleus is also a mint!
I personally find the monstera esqueletto easier than the adansonii simply because the adansonii is so susceptible to thrips. I have 2 adansonii and both of them lost all their leaves to thrips, while my esqueletto didn't care much. And I find they grow at a similar speed.

Have you ever tried lamb's ear indoors? I'm wondering if it would work out. I love the look and feel of this plant.
Nope not heard of it
The pothos enjoy on a "moss pole" does it have bark in the pole ?? You said soil but it looks like bark. Thanks for your help in my obsession ! ❤
It's a soil bark mix
Im sure mrs sheffield is all about the FAST GROWERS TO FILL IN SPACE HEHEHEHE
Careful now...
Well that was fun. I write down every plant you have so I can copy. lol Maybe. Rich, one in particular is the picture plant. I had the thing right in my hands, I thought it might be to fussy. You see my google is 1 1/2 hours away on my home computer. No cell phone. My Mom wanted it too and I said No. What an ASS! That's the same place I got my ring of fire so I'm not complaining. This was a great video. Besides myself I am sure lot's of plant people will find helpful tips in this video. I found out that philodendrons are slow growers, Thank God. I just transferred my dumb cane from water to soil, I hope he grows fast. Although beautiful, this video reminded me why I don't buy regular ferns or tradescantia's. I also like to add, that advice I took from Rich and applied has worked out wonders on my three potho's My global green, n-joy and golden potho babies have all did amazing being STAKED UP. I just love this man's common sense and knowledge. You have to make sure and video when it's time to transplant either that long devil or the hoya lisa that is intertwined with it. That will make great entertainment. Prayers, Peace and Love.
Thanks for watching 😁
Hello Sir, I would like to know the size of your gray container you use for working with your plants. Love your channel and everything about it. Thank you. USA
Have you gone through the nepenthes rabbit hole yet? Im curious to see if you can figure out how to get it to grow well.
The pitchers always die very quickly for me and the new ones never get as big as the originals that are there when you buy it.
Seems to be fine for me. I've got a grow light hanging over it so that helps
Your peace Lilly could just react to certain circumstances instead of blooming on a pattern, my Dioscorea Elephantipes (completely different plant) has started developing leaves for the 3rd time this year already, don't know either what triggers it. I understood they make leaves one or two periods a year
Great video. Do you have any begonias? Some grow really fast.
I’ve got a couple. Quite quick
Would love to hear ur thoughts on plants and moss poles, for eg would u recommend one for a deliciosa as much as u do for an adansonii?
Seems to be working well for mine. it's more of an effort though. I might do a video at some point
What about those begonias in the corner?
Fast? Medium i'd say
@Mr. Sheffield, would you kindly share a foot candel reading off you light meter for the Mandarin plant(orange spider) I have one and I'm curious what your light is.
Only about 100
"if you want a plant that will grow phallic looking flowers..." not something I ever thought id hear you say lol
😅
Think I’ll invest in a grow light for my pitchers they don’t seem to produce anything
Do you know what species your Nepenthes is? Some need high Humidity to pitcher. Windowsill Nepenthes is a great channel to learn from all the does is Nepenthes videos and has helped me a lot.
@@Mugsygrowsit think it’s a Nepenthes ventrata but I have a few other carnivous plants in the same pot there growing just not producing
@@comfortablynumb8832 I've seen those sold in store like that I would definitely separate them and your Nepenthes should start growing faster and pitchering more.
Can you talk a little more about soil poles?
Hi SheffieldMadePlants what is that plastic thing called instead of using the moss pole and do you have a link? Thank you from Louisiana
Search plastic moss pole on Amazon. Lots there.
Hi Rich. Great video. At 13 mins of the video, there is a plant behind you on a shelf in a bright orange pot - what plant is that? 👍
Aglaonema tigres. Very nice
Can’t seem to find one in UK. Any suggestions? 👍
@@TheWowhairmike I bought it my garden centre
Mr Sheffield we’re so u buy those plastic moss poles from please
Amazon
I've been trying to find a link to the "moss" poles you use to make your soil poles. Where do you get them?
I don't recommend the ones i have.
I did it, guys, i did it
Richard...with your moss poles, how much water do you give them? if you have a 2-4 ft pole and the plants in a 6 in pot I'm guessing you're pouring water down the pole, but how do you know when to stop, and how much is to much???
I let about 1 litre trickle through and then get rid of the excess in the pot
Another quick question: Does philodendron Birkin plant grow slowly? Mine has two new leaves which came out two weeks before and they aren't growing, nor did I get any newer leaves.
Slow for me yes
Could your green/orange plant be a Chlorophytum Green Orange? Is a type of spider plant. Is beautiful whatever it is. I would love one but have never seen one in Saskatchewan, Canada
Yes it is
I have the alocasia pink princess and black velvet and one with black spots on the stems the I don’t know the name and the 3 more same I don’t know the names 😂😂😂
Yeah bin the money plant
Where do you get your poles?
Amazon
@@SheffieldMadePlants thanks
Hello, in what media are you growing your nepenthes plant? Thank you
Not sure because i've not repotted it yet
Is that a string of hearts I saw near your fern? Have you changed your mind about string-of plants??
I've had that for years. I rehabbed it and its looking better. Still hate the tangles
@@SheffieldMadePlants Rats!! I keep hoping you'll give string of pearls another try
My Monsteras had 2 new leaves unfurling when they arrived around the end of June and are unfurling 2 new ones again. Maybe it's all the smooches and compliments they've been getting. 😂😂😂
BTW Sheffy, hows come you've never mentioned that Monsteras weep???
I have in a video
@@SheffieldMadePlants did 3 different searches and couldn't find anything. Was really surprised when mine started to weep. I've bottom watered into a shallow tray and all has been absorbed within a few hours. Soil is dry in about 7 days. Leaves are great ( insert me doing sign of crucifix here). Thought maybe it had something to do with the new leaves - remembered the troubles you have with your 1 plant needing misting to help it unfurl new leaves. Just kinda shook me, being a new Monstera momma and all.
@@ohnoyce it doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong. Normally happens the day after watering. Happens all the time then you might be watering too often
My pink transdescantia is taking forever to grow. How do you get it to grow so quickly? I have had mine for 4 months and its only about1 inch taller.
More light probably
I was checking some plants I own and I repotted two plants from their small pots to a slightly bigger one and then I found one tiny white worm crawling out of the soil. It was toooo tiny and I am scared if it's gonna damage the plant. I repotted jade and money plant but Idk which one it came from.
Worms give me an ick.
Can someone suggest what I can do (something easier)
Also, is it due to over watering or something else? Does anyone know the reason?
I haven't watered them for two weeks now, I gave them a water break so that the soil dries out a Lil.
I just cannot keep my Tradiscantia looking good at all unless I plant them in the ground and just let them crawl around, I’ve heard people say to cut it back etc I’ve done all of that but it’s still not growing just right!
They often do look a mess
You need to open a greenhouse and online store to fill the void left by plantarina
My N’Joy Pothos has almost completely croaked. Which I don’t understand. I can grow about anything. Maybe I started with poor stock?
