Just wanted to tell you that I have learned the most from your website and I wanted to thank you. I am 77 years old and never knew until recently that plants actually have a preferred way they like to be treated.
Awww hey Margaret! Thank you so much for the kind comment. I’m glad you’ve learned from the videos! I enjoy putting them together, and hope we can learn more together. These plants can be fussy, but usually because they are in need of something 😄 Thanks again!
hello! I wanted to ask you a question. I have a pink princess, a pink leaf has just been born, the pink is more intense, on the other hand, as time goes by I see that it becomes a much lighter pink, what could this be due to? or is it normal in the plant?
@@prettyingreenhow do you get that nice burgundy color? I see it sold as black cherry princess, but I’m seeing regular pink princess with the light green and pink can also have that nice dark burgundy with pink.
This man is the epitome of Confidence when it comes to propagation. Very informational video. But seriously, the bravery in doing it is awesome, especially when it comes to pricier variegated plants. 💪🏼
Hahahahaa this made my day! But seriously the amount of crappy cuttings I’ve created I better be alright at it by now 🤣 But thanks for the kind words-I hope it’s helpful!
You know I went straight to my royal court (white knight/wizard/princess) and Monstera Albo to find each eye and I'll be damned, there are the axillary buds! This is very useful with managing my variegated plants! Thank you.
I love that you checked! All those should cut exactly like this-a few philodendrons might not, but the axillary buds should be obvious on those ones (paraiso etc). Glad it was helpful 😄
I have watched so many variegated plant videos where people just say "it's random". I never really understood variegation on a stem until this video! Well done, very informative!
I’ve seen all those videos too early on and just cut randomly, but NOPE! Dozens of unvariegated cuttings later, here we are 🤣 Thanks for checking it out!
Excellent explanation. I just got a pink Princess second hand and I am trying to see if I can get it to be a successful plant. Your video was very helpful in learning about getting a healthily variegated plant. Thank you!
Thank you so much for all the detailed information about cutting - it really helps as I don’t have a lot of people on RUclips doing this same type of instructional video so I can cut things correctly! Thanks again! Keep at it!
Hey!! This means a lot. To be honest, I haven’t seen this type of content yet, so I figured I’d make it 😅 I’m glad you found it useful!! Appreciate the kindness!
No basically you and North Shore Tropicals are the only folks I’ve seen showing cutting and bud identification in detail, and not with 1hr 45 min videos nattering about their lives either. I ain’t got time for that! 😆
Thanks very much for this video. I’m pretty new to the plant world and I’ve been watching quite a few of your videos. This one taught me what to do when I want to propagate my pink princess but also was a bit of bad news. My PP is currently putting out a new leaf that looks like it might be 100% pink. I’ve been very excited about this but I did not realize that this leaf might not make it. Thanks for explaining things so well and for all your expose videos about rare plants and scammers. Your channel is the best I’ve seen.
I have been looking for hours on how to cut my plant for more variegation. Also a bunch of leaves got burned so it has a very long stem that’s just empty on the main root side so I have to cut a bunch of those nodes as well and this video is amazing it is so descriptive, I cannot thank you enough also just a quick question if I leave the empty stem of about 6 inches there as it is will new leaf growth come out of each of those notes again or do I need to chop up each node and do node propagation?
I might have missed it - I haven't read every comment - but is there a follow-up video showing if the new growth is as you predicted? I'm very new to plants and a lot of the terminology and techniques are very new and confusing to me
Thank you for the video! Was wondering on the Jose Bueno… I have some that are very much varied then they threw greener leaves and then then they keep going back-and-forth… I have some in a little bit more light. I’m trying to figure them out. Do they need a little bit more light to encourage variegation? hi grow mine in Florida zone 10 A outside and around a pool enclosure with filtered light in different areas so some get different light. Thanks in advance for any help.. also the Burle Marx variegated… if mine is throwing more green/reverting to green… Is it best to just cut those parts off?
Ok i just learned a ton! thank you!! Question: why are some pink princesses green (like yours) and others are purple (like mine)? Are these the same plant?

Thanks for the detailed explanation; I now know how to propagate my pink princess…when it’s bigger.
Hey Carol! Yes this should be a good guide for it in the future! Just be patient for the right node 😊
THATS HOW YOU SHOW IT! So helpful. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
YES!! I tried to zoom up on all the important parts of the process- glad it was helpful 😊

BEST VIDEO EVER !!! THANK YOU! Im obsessed with pink plants:)
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!!!

Great video, I wasn't aware of this when propagating
So glad it was helpful 😄

Super informative video!! Thank you!
This helped me a lot!! thanks!
Thank you so much for such an informative video 👍
Of course! 😊
Very informative! Thank you!
Very welcome! Thanks for checking it out 😄
About how long after you cut the PPP does a new shoot come out of the mother plant? Thank you for making this video!
We’re 9 weeks after that video was filmed, and that exact plant has 3 new leaves post cut!
Great info. Thank you!
So glad it was helpful!
So informative and beautiful plants!!!
So glad it was! Thank you :)
Same goes for syngonium albos ? Thanks for this info! I have a pink princess and never wanna cut it 😅
This was super informative. I’m terrified to try it but hey, that’s part of the learning process right?
Absolutely! There’s not much to lose. It’ll always grow back even if the cutting doesn’t root! Go for it!
I have 3 really big mature PPP’s. I was wondering if I do prune back, will the leaves come out mature or will they go back to juvenile shape?
Thank you for the video!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
Ok i just learned a ton! thank you!! Question: why are some pink princesses green (like yours) and others are purple (like mine)? Are these the same plant?
Some plants just lose their variegation over time like the pink Princess. Philodendron erubescens is an unstable variegated plant 😅
@@prettyingreen thank you 🙏🏿
Do you propagate in water ?
Awesome video, new subscriber here. Tfs 💚
Thank you for checking out the video! Welcome to the channel 😊
What is the mix that they’re in?
Does this work for verigated micans as well?
Great question! I’m just not sure on the micans-it’s a very unique variegation
I've just realized I'm in over my head lmao help 🙃 😅
Thanks for sharing. I would recommend not naming the title Pink Princess when you start out with different plants. I almost gave up glad I did not. 😅
Great tip! Hope the video was helpful
