  • In this episode, I share the care of this 2 year old variegated Philodendron billietiae and ended up propagating it. I share every detail about the propagation process as well as care for the cuttings, showing you a very satisfying 6 months update at the end of the episode! In this episode, we learn how to trouble shoot root rot during propagation in order to rescue them!

    maybe the planting medium is too fertile so the varigates disappear and return to normal growth (green)__as far as I know, varigata plants for fertilization are limited so that the varigates are stable..💚💚

      Its beautiful that you have such compassionate soul. Giving life (such as births) take enormous pain and suffering. (Yes, plants can feel pain in ways we cannot describe yet) but the creation of new life is beautiful, and I daresay, the purpose of every living thing is to impart life for the next generation - stronger and more beautiful.

Though mine I did not bother changing the potting mix as I am scared it could be too sensitive and I don't want it to die on me.

    Well, sometimes you have to cut a lot in order to have varigation! You did well my friend! Although I admit ,I got scared watching you chop those tight nodes yet it ended pretty good at the end, the varigation looks stunning!! As for maintaining the varigation on the Billy, you have to give it intense light , morning or evening sunlight to keep the varigation constant,and a good specimen of course.
