🤓💬💜 Hi I’m Kaitlyn, a certified horticulturist and plant lover! I have hundreds of houseplants in my collection - it's so enriching to bring greenery indoors but it can also be challenging to keep up with all the care. I make videos about my experience caring for my houseplant collection and I am here to share the joys of indoor plant science with you!
👋Thanks so so much for watching and subscribing!! 💜💜💜
Cheers to making new plant friends!

I think you missed your calling as a botany teacher! I could listen to you talk about plant parts all day 😂
Class is in session! 👩🏫🌿🧬✨ Your homework is to enjoy your houseplants ☺️💜
I really appreciate the educational aspect of your videos. Not a lot of planty RUclipsrs can get that technical and also keep things very approachable and easy to understand at the same time. Awesome job 👏
Yessss I love to hear this thank you!!! 🥰 I work extremely hard thinking about how to contextualize the technical science and botany - analogies, examples, phrasing, etc- in a way that’s easy to understand without being oversimplified. I just really like making things make sense, and it fills me with happiness and gusto to know you appreciate it!🌟😁✨✨✨💜🌿💕 Thanks so much and for this comment and for your support!! Happy planting😊💜
I absolutely love your approach to plants and how much knowledge you have! I don't know any other plant youtuber who would go into details about for example plants anatomy or origin of their names. It's amazing how much I learn from you and how much more I understand about plants! Love your videos! I can't wait for another one 🥰🥰
Thank you so so much!💜 This is so validating to me because the goal of my channel has always been to fill in the gaps where I think houseplant knowledge is missing or misunderstood, and to do it in a way that feels approachable and even exciting💜😊
I’m so truly happy to hear that you have learned a lot watching my videos!! It energizes and inspires me to keep making them 🥰 ⚡️I really appreciate your comment and support thank you🌿✨💕 Have an amazing planty week!
I have to say, I really enjoy the planty science stuff. It's exactly the type of things that grab my interest, and is probably one of the main reasons I like this channel so much 😊💜
Sorry if I scared you with my purple hands in the propagation scene lol I had just touched up my hair dye and my hands were still stained 😂💜
*I’ve had Epiphyllum Queen of the Night, for over 20 years. My neighbor in Florida had some and I became obsessed.*
*I saw from her very mature plants (some over 6-7 ft. tall) the the long thin runner thingy will eventually turn into a tree trunk like support system and will sprout new flat leave from the top ends. I leave mine alone and let them grow. They do grow little air roots off the sides of the skinny shoots. I know you could propagate pieces, but I don’t know if they will grow flat or skinny leaves. I’ve never tried. It is one of my long term favorites.*
I love learning from you! And I can't believe the tape worked on that billietiae 🤣
Yay!! Thanks so much Michelle🥰💜✨ Hahah I’m still in shock over the tape working too 😆❤️🩹✨✨🌿 Have a great week!
You always draw me in for the fun energetic entertaining energy, and then you teach me stuff! You’re like the Bill Nye for adult houseplant people. I definitely learned some things!
Hahah hooray!! Thank you so much Mandy!!🥰💜 Being compared to Bill Nye is like my favorite compliment ever 🥹💕 I hope you’re having a beautiful planty day🌿💜
I love learning from you! The educational side of your videos is so fun and approachable and easy to understand. The technical aspects of plants has fascinated me for ages, but sometimes looking up the information yourself can be a bit intimidating but thanks to bingeing your videos it's a lot easier to understand some of the terms used.
It's also fun hearing about the meanings of plant names and their origins.
Please never stop being you!
I love, love, love the science of plants that you share with your tips and updates. Your excitement is contagious. Thank you!!
Hey Kaitlyn! I just wanted to say that I always love seeing your plants in any of your videos~
I started watching you last year and was so stunned by your collection back then already that it sparked a flame to become a plant parent myself. I enjoy my new hobby every day since then.
Lots of love from Germany!
Hiii!!!🤗💜✨🌿 I love every part of this, I’m so glad to share the joys of plant collecting with you😍 It makes me happy to hear when plants make others happy too✨
I studied and lived in the Berlin suburbs for part of my time during college, I miss Germany and can’t wait to go back eventually. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate your comment! Happy planting 💜
You are an excellent teacher & presenter . Never really understood where to cut for a good clipping...I do now
Wow, I love your videos. You are so informative with your knowledge. I wait patiently until a new video drop these days. I’ve been watching you since you were in San Francisco maybe the last year. I love your purple hair and nails. I just love you.
Just found you on RUclips. Enjoy all your videos so far. I love that you really explain what's going on with the science side of our plants. I have learned so much and truly am learning so much. ❤ Thank you for teaching true plant care.
I just found your channel tonight and I thought to myself where have you been all my life? Haha. Awesome video! I love your style and your scientific side. Def earned my sub! 🌱💚🌱
My first time here. Loved the cactus anatomy! Explains my zigzag cactus’s weird growth pattern. Also, really liked that you give ‘technical’ background / the ‘Why’ explanation for taking cuttings, propagation, using coco coir (👍🏾 @ hate bugs / critters), etc. Thank you! @reallybigplant 🙏🏾
My heavens! I love the P Billie!!! Everyone raves about how hardy of a plant it is.. that alone makes it a favorite!
So happy for you that the tape repaired your billi 🎉🎉 Love how you explain so much about plants growing systems 😀🇨🇦
This is why I love your channel; always so much information.
i have an epiphyllum of similar type, and this winter grew a long branch, which rebranched in 5 new branches at the top. i kinda explain this like the plant is looking for a higher place to root itself and grow closer to the light, since it sprouts tiny roots as well. :)) thanks for the informative video ! Loved it
Congrats on all that growth!! Sounds like your plant is happily exploring your home hehe 😁✨🌿 I’m so glad you enjoyed the video🥰 thanks for watching! Happy planting💜💜
Thank you for your content! I love to geek out about plants and like the rest have said, I can listen to you spit out plant knowledge all day long lol I wonder if you could make a video showing some of your plants and what they look/grow in the wild, that would be so interesting!
I love your discussion about epiphyllum! You did a wonderful job explaining it! I have a zig zag cactus. It tends to shoot out skinny stalks initially, but they do expand once hardened off. 💚
I have learned propping plants in soil and putting into an XL ziploc baggie makes starting plants super easy and fast
Thanks for that tip, I just pulled my cuttings out of water and I’m gonna try soil instead. It’s been weeks without one single root.
@@kellypearsall4540 I had standlyana albos in water 9 months and barely any roots fully rooted in soil within 4 weeks. Game changer.
Great to see that leaf repaired itself .. ( I've seen something like that also covered up with cinnamon powder, but that would probably destroy the sticky tape working. )
Yay thanks for watching!✨😄 it can be a great idea to proactively put something with antifungal properties like cinnamon on a big plant wound too💜
👍🏾Video. I love the arrangement of plants and how the vining plants hang freely. Purple hair love it. My bedroom planters are sprayed purple.
🪴Happy Planting🌿
the cactus nerd inside of me is exploding right now 🤓🧐🤯
that billi illi ateeeaayy 😅 leaf story is amazing!! love it!!
I have an epiphylum. It was MASSIVE! But then it got root rot and I had to pitch it. But I did take a bunch of cuttings and I have a lot of small ones now. They can get really ugly with all that stuff sticking out of them, I just cut off anything that doesn't suit me. My big one did bloom, and that was so much fun and so fascinating. The blooms just last one night, mine were maybe 8 inches across, and quite beautiful. I keep mine in terra cotta. They use quite a bit of water, but don't like to stay wet. I think that's why I lost my mother plant, I had it in a ceramic pot because it needed a heavy pot to stabilize it's top heavy weight.
youre one of my new fav youtube plant ppl
Perfect tape to use on the Billie! From experience that tape never comes off lol
I have a Bird of Paradise that was giving birth but the stem was to short. I pulled the the little stem from parent leaf and it was still to short. Yes I cut the parent stem for the leaf. She came out in good shape. I tell myself that helped my plant give birth during a difficult delivery. So far the plant and leaf is doing great! Excellent job on saving the leaf!
Thank you for this video, it was easily my favourite of all I've watched from you. I loved the variety of topics, but was especially drawn in by the more technical and intellectual parts. Have a wonderful day.
Wow your favorite!😊 I’m really glad you liked it so much, I have usually ended up cutting back on the longer technical parts during the editing process but left a lot in this time. Glad to know you really enjoyed it, thanks so much for this feedback and for watching my videos! I really appreciate it🥰💜🌿✨ Have a great week!💕
I love how you make the science make sense!!!! 😊
My Queen Of The Night or Night Blooming Cerus always grows those long stems. Then they grow into leaves and side shoots off the stems. I usually just leave them do their thing unless they get too tall and I am out of room for them. And YES I have taped a leaf stem before and it worked.
@reallybigplant *P.S. I was watching your repot with your Thai Constellation and wanted to warn you against using the wick string with potting soil. When I found out that Thai Constellations have root rot and stem rot in their DNA, I put both of mine in Pon. They’re doing great and I worry less. I don’t keep any water in the bottom and just water and completely drain when I think it’s time. Using a moss pole with soil mixed in. They seem to love it.*
Great to know that micropore tape works on plants too !
❤❤❤ your channels. ❤ ❤ learning more about plants!!! Love you hair!!!
A Billie miracle!!!!!❤❤❤
Great teaching on plants and your not boring I’m learning a lot.
I love how educational your videos are ! ❤
Ok I’m so buying some medical tape 😂 apparently you can reattach a finger if you sew it on soon after it’s been cut off… plant petioles? Sure!
I gave up on my pineapples thinking they just weren’t growing, guess I shoulda waited!!
My orchid cactus has 4 foot long leaf growths EVERYWHERE I’m having trouble not breaking them just watering my other plants! Most of them are fattening into long “leaves” it looks like on mine, I moved it from a lower light window to infront of a hefty grow light, figured it needed it, I’m so smart 😂
Ohhh you’re so right about reattaching fingers, petioles are nothing!! LOL 😳😂
Nice move giving your cactus more light! 🤓✨ Glad that worked to widen out your plant’s branch-leaves 🤩 Thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience!! 🥰💜 Happy planting🌿
Ohhhh... I am so happy your tape worked for your plant. I just got this plant as well. I am so happy about having it. It grows so quickly. Ok... still watching.....
OMG I have had an epiphyllum oxypetalum for YEARS and I never knew all this! Yes, the info on the internet is very confusing. I did notice through experience that you can propagate literally any part of the plant--the leaf/branch, the long skinny leaf/branch, etc. This is one of my favorite plants because it ALwAYS looks kind of wonky and is super resilient!
Your info about epiphyllum was better than what I have found on the internet. Please do a video about them.
Congratulations with the T-shirt stem. I've used super glue to fix stems and leaves with a 90% success rate.
Wow! Eye opening info about taping the leaf 👍
I snapped a stem on a new unfurled large Monstera Deliciosa leaf a while back and I taped it. I thought it was a goner, but it ended up healing itself. The stem was snapped almost all the way through too, just like yours. I can still see a scar but I had removed the tape after a month and it was just perfect. 😊
I have a fishbone cactus plant with several long skinny stems like your plant. Thanks for telling me what it means because I didn’t know
5:30 My Thaumatophyllum Xanadu also smells citrusy or like celery whenever any part of it is mildly damaged. I first noticed it when I plucked off one of its older leaves. Just another cool thing about plants!
Ooo that is so interesting thanks for sharing!! 🤩 I couldn’t remember where I’d smelled this before and now I’m wondering if it was with a different thaumatophyllum. I’m going to pay attention to the scent next time I repot or prune one! 💜 thanks so much for eatdhing 😊 happy planting!🌿✨💕
My night blooming cactus did this exact thing and it just started growing “branches” from it, I took a cutting a few inches lower from the new growth and stuck it back to the soil to promote more growth points😊
The top broke off of my snake plant. Taped it back together with regular tape and last week I noticed that it healed and reattached
Oh that’s amazing!!!🤩 For some reason every time I’ve tried doing this on a snake plant it’s never worked for me so I stopped trying. But next time I have a snake plant leaf that breaks I’m definitely gonna try again! Thanks so much for sharing 😊💜✨🌿 happy planting!💕
It seems like all of my plants are growing. My monstera is growing two new leaves. And I got another peace lily this year and that plant has expanded so much I wonder if it had been wadded up at the local nursery. 😅 it must be extremely happy because it is making flowers everywhere 😊
Yay I love to hear it!!😍 The plants know spring is right around the corner😊✨🌿 You must be taking great care of your peace lily, I bet it’s a beauty!💕 Thanks so much for sharing 🥰💜 happy planting!!
Okay I had no idea that you could stick nodes into soil to prop, but that makes sense. Water roots vs soil roots 🤯
I loved learning about the rainforest cactus! Thank you so much for all the information I wondered why my fishbone cactus had those long branches growing and am so happy to know I just need to move it to another window!
Hi !! It is so funny that you did this video now!! I did the very same thing with my Monstera !! I accidentally broke a new leaf and decided to tape it (with Scott tape😮)!!! It's been 3 days and so far looking good!! Fingers crossed 🤞 Desperate times call for Desperate measures 😅😅😅😅😅
my neighbor gave me 1 of the plants that is supposedly gonna flower at night, it was doing exactly what yours is ...sadly it didn't make it. my neighbor moved to Florida (retirement, she is a genius, green thumb, miss her plant donations to me, lol!! i killed a peace lily she gifted me as well. she had a great collection herself ...thankfully i live with her leftovers she left for my new neighbors) and i am sad she couldn't help me with the 1's have now, she would be shocked ...it was so interesting and i never saw it bloom ... i had such hope. oh well ... i live through your green thumbs. i have a few house plants now, but your collection is just amazing. i love your channel you are so able to hold onto plant knowledge ...i wish i could, i listen, i'll try to absorb but not sure i will know for the future??! ... amazed i am. ( ;
My mother-in-law gave me a cutting of HER great grandmother's "holiday cactus" and I am having a difficult identifying what type it is because it is much more tube like rather than paddle like. I thought that it was a light issues, thanks for confirming.
Wow how amazing to have a such a special living piece of family history🥰💜✨ happy planting!😊🌿💜
that's so cool you got that petiole to heal back together
That’s so funny!
Amazing leaf save, Kaitlyn!!! Love that!
I use scotch tape all the time to heal petioles. I thought I was the only one! Works great for me every time!
I have taped a alocasia amazonica petiole before and it worked, I think it´s always worth a try. The leaf was quite heavy so I cut a plastic straw open and used it as a splint, I have also used a thin wooden skewer as splint before.
I also have a rick rack cactus that is growing very long thin branches right now, it´s in a quite low light situation, especially the top of the pot, the longer leaves are hanging down into a bright zone. I gave it a weak grow light for the pot, really hope the skinny branches will flatten out over time. If not then I have to find it a brighter spot.
I did put a splint on a very large leaf stem that had been bent on my giant monstera deliciosa and it totally worked!
I have 3 of the cactus! The curly one, the fish bone and the queen of the night and I keep them dry dry dry
But I thought those antenna looking stems were just a result of winter
I have a very huge Diefenbachia and during my move, it tipped and the stem completely snapped right at the bottom near the soil. I was so in denial that i just tipped it back on and taped it with packing tape. This was a year ago and this motherf*cker just grew back together, is sprouting new leafs like crazy and still blossoms every now and then. I am so so glad that i didn't leave it behind when it snapped.
That is so cool.
Question-someone said to cut the long tendrils (branches 🙂) they grow in winter because those parts won’t produce blooms-true? Thank you so much for that explanation!
You could try transparent pots for soil propogation, so you can monitor the roots
Broo I literally have that exact pair of scissors 😮
I love your channel can you please do a video on the rubber tree
Learned so much in this video. I believe I have the same jungle cactus as you do, and yes it has those elongated branches. Mine grows very vigorously and I haven't really figured out what to do with it. I have propagated it, but have had trouble even giving it away. To strange looking I suppose. Anyway I wish it would bloom cause otherwise it is a very awkward plant to try and house. My sister gave it to me before she moved away or I would still not own it.
I had a epiphyllum that bloomed beautifully for me bit after a couple of years it just died. I live in Houston Texas, so very hot and humid most of the time. I have acquired another one from my sister which I gave her a cutting . It is struggling. So I would love a video about them. I have it in a terracotta pot in a larger plastic pot and it is surrounded potting soil. I did this so when it got too big for it's pot I would take it out and just plop it back into the larger pot without disturbing the roots and maybe it would just continue like nothing happened.
Hi...Where did you get the pigeon/bird pillows😅reminds me of NY....lol
I have been collecting them and bringing them into my flock one at a time over many years!! ☺️🕊️🦜🦆💜✨✨ I think I might own every available pigeon plushie haha🥰
Emoji mum will get leaves on them also called queen of the night I have them
How often did you water your pine apple?
Where did you get your purple pots?
Is moss propagation producing "water roots" or "soil roots"? It's so easy to propagate in water and then to transfer to pon or directly plant a cutting into pon. I have plants growing in soil and pon. I have problems often after I transfer rooted cuttings to soil because I have many plants and forget or can't keep up with the watering routine. Growing in semihydro gives me more time before the plant gets totally dry and starts to die.
My pineapple keep rotting. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. 😢
How you tell how to water your plant
How you know if you get a new leaf on your plant
Curious what brand of coco coir you use?
The color of yours is so dark compared to mine. It looks black and mine is more brown red.
I'm new here. Did she say she transplants everything into coco coir even when you up pot plants......confused??
Saya senang belajar dari anda Dan saya tidak percaya rekaman itu berhasil pada billietiae itu
Thank you so much for watching! 😊💜🌿✨
i also was inspired by your ananas video and treid to root one myself. unfortunately, soon after it started to rot and when i pull the leavess, they fell off easily. wonder what would have happend if i waited lol
Hmm yes my propagation from the top of the pineapple I grew (the one that’s not rotting in the middle) did drop a lot of leaves and went thru an initial mushy phase so I removed the rotten parts and kept it even though it was pretty gross and pathetic looking lol 😅 so it’s possible yours might have eventually grown too if you kept it. But I’ve also had really mixed results with pineapple propagation and they often rot so sometimes it’s just the luck of the draw, especially with ones from the grocery store. I hope it works out for you next time!😁🍍💜
Can/ will you send me some cuttings of whatever plants you like. Thanks ❣️ 🪴💚🌞
still hoping for a hoya update 😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
