- Grab your ferns and dimsum baskets and mount some plants with me!! 🥟 Not your typical combo, I know, but it works! I just love finding new and creative ways to display my plants, and when I finally found dimsum baskets at my local asian grocery store, I got super excited! I have only ever mounted ferns on wooden planks and pieces of cork, but dimsum baskets give off a really cool Asian Japandi vibe, I think, which is totally my dream aesthetic!
Part of what makes collecting houseplants a very enjoyable hobby for me is finding unique ways of showcasing the beauty of plants. Sometimes it's a bit unconventional like this one!
What creative ways of displaying plants have you tried out before? Let me know in the comments below!

I would love to see an update on how the wood is faring now 6 months on
They look super cute 😀🇨🇦
Such a cute idea.
thank you!
You are a natural! Enjoying your videos and looking forward to many more. Great job
Thank you so much!! I’m so happy you enjoyed this, this was a lot of fun for me to film! 😁😁
On my way to get steam baskets!!!!!! This is amazing! All my ferns are mounted to wood that I painstakingly cut and sanded. I have two ferns now that have been needed mounting for like, 6 months but I’ve been to lazy to prepare the wood 🥹🥹🥹
wood is so nice too! I just don't have the skills or patience to prep them lol And the steam baskets are quirky and fun! And easy to replace if needed hehe
Loved how it turned out, and enjoyed watching the process of you figuring it out as you went along 🥰
Thank you!! I’m so happy with them, they look so cute!!! I want more staghorn snow just so I can make more of these hehehe
I also love staghorns thank you for sharing great idea
you're welcome! It was too cute not to share ☺️
Super cute. Love how they turned out! I am not super crafty, so I love seeing other folks being creative! Glad you had fun. Now I want dim sum lol.
Hahahaha not gonna lie, I wanted dimsum after too! I’m glad you enjoyed this, I had a lot of fun hehe
I appreciate watching someone learn as they go! Loving your content so far!
I appreciate that! There's always lots of learning happening around here hehe
I never even wanted staghorn ferns but I absolutely love this idea so cute!!
I literally got my ferns just so I could mount them like this haha! I’m so happy I was finally able to! 😆 thank you so much!
Loved the creativity! I'm thinking I may put my reservations aside and get myself a staghorn fern. Do you have any favorite (Canadian) online plant suppliers? Favorite place to get your plants?
For ferns I've found Crystal Star nursery to have the best selection! 😁
Such an enjoyable video.. Im feeling yucky today and not motivated but You are giving me ideas to try my teeny fern (from my grandson) in sphagnum.. Now to find a dimsum basket 😊👍🌱 and it looks like Crystal Star Nursery has a botanical hunt tomorrow at 7pm 🎉
I am glad this video inspired you! Ooooh I didn't know they had a hunt going on tomorrow! I will definitely be checking it out hehe
Super cute!!
thank you!
Such a smart idea and it looked so cute 😃
Thank you! I had so much fun making them hehe
Love them. Making mine now
hehe I hope you have fun! 🥰
I loved the idea and have been waiting to get the plants and baskets to do it for sooo long. I made them, thank you for the tutorial.
Mine have mould starting already though. How do you avoid that Bekka?
❤❤❤
Beauitful
Thank you!
@@HerPlantStories I just found your channel yesterday I really like your content.
Such a cute idea and fun video!! Thank you for showing us I’ve always wanted to make a staghorn mount!!!!
Question do you ever use leca or pon with no drainage? If so please make a video I’m really having trouble! I have a Thai constellation on the way I want to put in leca and I don’t want anything to go wrong!
yup, I use both leca and pon, although I prefer leca for semi hydro, and I use pon as a base layer with soil plants in no drainage. I can try and make a quick video about that soon!
@@HerPlantStories please I would really appreciate that! I love how detailed you are. I would love to know how much of a water resiviour you have in no drainage and what nutrients. Also if you let it dry out before adding more water etc etc. thank you!!
How do u prevent ur cats from biting the toxic plants
Luckily my cats don’t bother eating the plants! And just to be safe I grow cat grass for them to nibble on instead as well
I've been always curious about how xylem.pholem's stags- they turned out so well! How often do you find they need watering in the bamboo baskets? Less than before?
Right?? They are so cute! Yeah a little less than before, which is nice! I was always accidentally letting them get too dry before that 😅
