Oh, it looks stunning Nora. I do love syngoniums, and the combination of colours is GORGEOUS! Would love to see updates on this pole! ❤😊🌱💚

Funny I'm watching a team now I love it when a plan comes together that looks amazing Im going to try that

I love seeing the real life struggle! Otherwise when i try myself and hit obstacles i think i just dont have the skills. Thanks for sharing❤

😂 Thank you for going ahead of us Nora and suffering for us all. We can learn from you and detour from the little issues that you came across. With all the little setbacks, it is still sooo worth doing. I hope you can come back to yr mixed syngonium pole in early Summer to see how it's travelling. It will be spectacular!! 🎉

If you want to cut down on plastic waste and repurpose something from the trash/recycling: 1 Liter and 1.5L water bottles from brands like Kirkland, Essentia, and Smartwater can be cut in half hot-dog ways then you can use those for your plastic moss pole backs :)

I have to it up to you, ,I loved this video I'm in America and I'm a new plant dad with about 50 plants , keep your videos coming

I want to make one of these like yours

❤ I can't wait to see an update on this one!! I'm sure it will be spectacular🎉❤

What is the name of the plastics backing? 👍🏾Video. I like the wide moss pole. 🪴Happy Planting🌿

😳 omg can’t believe what am seeing . How lush is calathea best looking queen plant I’ve ever seen . Am goin watch ur video over an over an over 😂I want my sick calathea to look this beautiful & big . You certainly are the calathea queen moms ❤🎉

I'm trying out using plastic pocket folders for the back of my moss poles. Really cheap and no issues so far.

Nah, air molecules are very tiny and can get down through the leca just as well in a glass jar as in a submerged pot with holes on the side. :) Also, if I buy a cold drink in an outdoors bar in summer, I will get a lot of condensation on that glass. That's not because this outdoors bar is badly ventilated but because of humidity. ^^

I would keep the Maria! Place her on a pole!

By the way, have you ever heard of a red arrow Syngonium? A plant shop mailed one to me by mistake. That thing was about 160 full price. Not something I would purchase but I was given such a good offer that I decided to keep it. My original order was sent somewhere else, and the people were so happy, they decided to keep it and pay the additional fee. I also paid a small fee instead of going through the hassle of mailing it back, so I guess I made out good.

It has been my experience that philodendron need the pole to be moist to attach. Pothos, in my experience, do not. They seem to be easier to attach to whatever support they have.

I wish we could get our hands on reasonably priced tree fern fiber here in Canada

You did a great job putting mixed pot syngonium on a moss pole. Great ideas & look fwd to updates! You put so much time & effort in creating big plants on a moss pole, so it’s time to show off your marble queen etc. Thanks for sharing Nora!

were did you get your confetti tricolor from

I use small river rocks but big enough that they cannot come through the mesh. It works very well as it also stabilize the pole in the pot. It is so easy the put the pole in as nothing rolls off like the clay balls. Once the pole is in there, fill the pot with the balls. I think you will find it less annoying to do it this way.

I love the look of pink syngoniums too 😊 Can’t wait to see how this project turns out in a couple of months!

Girl! This is the most awesome video you’ve made yet!! Thank you, Ginger

This was by far one of the most interesting. That design of pole makes sooo much sense. I just know this will be one of my most favorite arrangements I have seen. It is going to be a show stopper. Never thought to put all of these together. I am trying a square mosspole so I can plant on all sides. Yours seems so much more sturdy. Btw, I thought you were so great today!

Maybe it’s because of the capillary action, but I find my pink princess’s moss pole, which is in LECA, NEVER fully dries out and is a DREAM to maintain! Unlike the ones in aroid mix that need a lot of babysitting 😂

i was looking at some online indoor plant stores and admiring the syngoniums, as i dont have any and dont know about them. the stores dont bother to say it's a climbing plant that will require a moss pole. i guess quick sales outweigh providing important information. you dont use velcro ties to attach the plants to moss pole? nice one

I found some premade poles and ordered a set to try them. I don't care for moss pole, but some plants need them. I am putting my monsteras on poles. You make your poles; I purchase the plastic ones and fill it. I am not diligent like you. Also found coco poles does nothing put stabilize the plant. They are useless otherwise and wish move vids will come out on why you should not purchase them.

Oh I'm so early today ❤

Great video ❤ Thank you

Can I transfer a button fern to Leca? I just started using Leca for the second time and I had successful results so I'm now wanting to transfer almost every other plant. I have moved 2 calatheas 3 Alocasias and 1 hoya. 😊

Omg! Makes so much sense 😮

I have not been successful with leca😢 whether in a cache pot or glass container they always die😢

I just transferred a few of my plants back to soil because they haven’t taken to LECA in the last 6 months. Is that normal? They’re just green heartleaf and brasil pothos, but they weren’t thriving nearly as well as the others in the same room.

The pot is too big as well.

They don’t like leca

What an excellent video. Thank you so much.

90% of my large collection are in glass no drainage. I use grow in drainage pots and have had much better growth with no drainage. Even my clarinervium and snake plants love it. Gone are my crispy anthuriums. Leca reservoir on the bottom and pon or soiled mix on the top. I even mix some spag in with the pon.

What I find difficult in the no drainage setup is flushing. Also, algae… but that happens even in the submerged with drainage setup, if the pots are clear.

My monstera is growing in a big glass jar roots are so healthy, no smell, no algae’s, I do not put any sauce fertilizer. I also have Leica net pot and reservoir growing well without any fertilizer. In Canada having short summer, still growing well near my patio windows. I give bath evert 3 weeks.

❤❤great explanation.Thank you .

Agree completely. Might be cute for a short-term table center piece, but definitely not for long-term living.

Hello Nora! I have been following you for about 10 months. I did transition my plants to leca and some are doing great, but I have lost some during my journey,.. I am struggling to keep my money tree alive. Any suggestions for an specific pot to help this poor tree ????

I totally get your point Nora!

💚

Can we still use soil?

I have peace lillies & anthuriums in glass jars with leca & they're THRIVING. But not all plants enjoy so much water. So i think it depends on the plant.

I don't know why, but all my peperomias died. I even cut the bulb into pieces and tried to start over - and it worked! - it grew roots and some tiny leaves... but then it just died again :( . I would love to see the tutorial how to take a proper care of peperomias.
