A couple of my #ppp and #wpp got a bit leggy so I had a #propparty last night πŸͺ΄βœ¨ Yall know I love to experiment ☺️ so I have 3 of each

2 in Coco coir, Perlite and a dab of charcoal πŸͺ΄
2 in Sphagnum moss and perliteπŸͺ΄
2 in waterπŸͺ΄

I want to see which grows the quickest. I know they both take forever and a day to root. I’m praying the #PropDrops & #WeTheWild give them the boost they need. I’m excited! #HappyPlants #experimenttime #Propagation #prop #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #NewPlantMom #PlantShelfie #PlantCorner #PlantLove #PlantMoms #cococoir #Charcoal #perlite #sphagnummoss #PinkPrincessPhilodendron #WhitePrincessPhilodendron #GregGang #Greggers #PLANTMAFIA
Oooh!! I am so stoked to hear about who’s winning the root contest! I love a good experiment!πŸ€“πŸ’«πŸ€© even better it’s with the greatest Aja & beautifulest Philos🀩🌱✨ @Popcornjoness
@Prentyce I’m a full #PhiloAddict between them and #Monstera I’m stuck lol
@Popcornjoness are they like your PokΓ©mon and you collect them all?!?!🀩πŸ₯³πŸ’« amazing! Chefs kiss!!! Mee too!!!! Hahahah :)
Looking forward to hearing your updates on this exciting experiment! I’m rooting for the props in water (pun intended) - mainly cos that’s my lazy gal go-to 🌱🀭 Out of interest, have you ever chopped and propped a very mature philo? I’ve done this with mature monsteras and they are such happy and easy to grow plants that it was never an issue but I’m wondering if the same would be true of a philo erubescens πŸ€”πŸ€”
@WelsomeRhodotus this is my first chop n prop so we’ll see! Yes Monstera will grow however which is great because I almost lost a few to root rot
@Prentyce yes! I want all the royals and rare philos lol I want a royal shelf 😍πŸ₯°
@Popcornjoness awesome! Can’t wait to see how these babies go! πŸ‘ΆπŸ»πŸΌπŸŒ±
@Popcornjoness What a great exciting experiment, lot of work. Can’t wait to see the results! I bet that plant will be a little confused! keeping my fingers crossed 🀞. That you get quick and successful results!
@Popcornjoness OH MY GOSH STOP CAN I LIKE SEND YOU OR MAKE YOU LTTLE CROWNS FOR YOUR ROYAL SHELF🀩✨🀠🌱πŸ₯³πŸ˜­πŸŒŸπŸͺ΄OMGGG!!! This is legendary Aja!!! @Popcornjoness πŸ₯ΉπŸ€©πŸŒŸ
Way to #faafo the propagating beautiful!! πŸ€©πŸ˜‚ I sometimes do that, take multiple cuttings and try them in different media. I have to say, for most plants, sticking them in the soil just doesn't work for me (it might be a humidity thing?) most end up rotting, but I water/ moss prop all the time. I think different things genuinely work better for different people in different environments... Which is why I always advice folk to "Fuck About And Find Out" (and so the #faafo technique was born 🀣🀣).

A "friend" on one of my plants groups, Traisoon, has a genuine Fire Princess ... It's so freaking beautiful!! But they run about £2.5k for a starter over here so that, along with the devil monster, will remain just a dream for me! 🀣🀣🀣

If you ever find a TC fire princess I'll literally move to the states and marry you if you can get one?! πŸ‘€πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Firey pic for tax *sighs whistfully* lol xx


Ooh... Has anyone heard of this P. brown beauty that's doing the rounds on socials?! It's a CRAP name, it has to be said, but what a pretty cultivar! Apparently, it's a
Black Billie (Atabaponse x Billietiae) x Florida Beauty and it's got amazing shaped and variegated leaves! πŸ’š I haven't price checked that one... After the Fire Princess my heart couldn't take it! Lmao 🀣 xx
@JenniB81 I’m such a believer in the #faafo method πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ how else do we learn?! Love the look of that amazing philo although my eye was immediately drawn to the dog casually lounging in the background πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…
@Popcornjoness Monstera and Alocasia for the win!!! My fav. I have a #POP I believe. Not sure if it’s pink or white. I’ll have to share all my plants one day.
Love experiments and excited to see what happens! #faafo omg I never knew that was a thing but I think it’s one of my things! 🀣
