My husband has recognized you as an extra member of our family because you’re always on our TV 🤣🤣 Can you do an easy to hard philodendrons and then an in depth care for anthuriums???
You can really tell Kaylee’s science and mathematics background. Her videos are so well formed and professional. I am an ecologist coding modeller, these videos are so great to watch, i love her x
Your videos are part of my weekly self care day 💕 face mask, hair mask and all the plant info I need 😊🌱
Dominique Lodwick love it.
Awwwwweee how adorable! Good for you for taking self care days!
I love that idea! Tell everybody I'm not available to sort their crap out! It'd be great to have a glam squad to just primp and preen me like these celebrities have daily. I'm lucky to find a hairbrush to drag through my tangled mane biweekly and brush my teeth in the brief intervals my daughters aren't in the bathrooms admiring themselves and coating each lash and eyebrow individually (apparently)....to say nothing of the fake tanning, the depilation , hair masks, goot and face masks, indicate makeup application, long bubble baths and even longer showers....
*Soil mix:* Most tropical rainforest plants will benefit from a small portion of Activated Charcoal mixed in.
It acts against harmful bacteria and moderates changes in the soil chemistry. Any sort of forest goes thru burn events at times, so this also mimics a feature of the rainforest environment: there is always some charcoal in that soil.
I went to your CZcams channel Frank but you didn't have any plant videos so maybe you should start to post plant videos on your CZcams channel if you have this kind of information that could be shared with the Plant World on CZcams! Great idea adding charcoal
Frank Drebbin I love using charcoal!
Thanks for the tips! 🥰 I just started growing tropical plant.
So it doesnt has to be activated it can be like wood charcoal?

One of the first plants I ever bought was a Philodendron Xanadu and that guy has never let me down! Grows like crazy even in the winter and hasn't given me a single issue. Definitely expanding my philodendron collection right now, love these plants 💖
IS THAT A MONSTERA ADANSONII VARIGATA I SEE??????
It is!
noticed it too, it’s beautiful!
Where did you get that?? I saw a *cutting* go on Ebay for over £1300!
@@nataliebutler they're crazy rare!!!
LOL I didn't read the description and didn't notice it until 10 minutes in then was like wait whaaaaaaat?!?! Congrats, that is quite a find $$$$$!
I want that dedicated video of philodendrons!! Honestly i could just listen to you talk about plants for a full hour.
I want to take the time today to thank you for your videos, Kaylee! You were the one that got me into plants. Before, I thought that I could not have plants, because a) I always kill them (by overwatering, I even killed a Zamioculca in the past!), and b) my house is too dark. By buying this moisture probe that you always recommend, I felt more confident that I could do it. I also realized that I do have quite some spots in my house which are not too dark. Now, I have something around 50 plants, and they are all happy and thriving. And this makes me happy. Thanks a million!
Girl I have only watched the first 6 minutes and 7 seconds of this video and I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate this videoooo!!!! I water mine the same as Alocasias and they are hating it. I didn't understand why. I so appreciate you taking the time to figure all this out and then sharing your experience, Kaylee Ellen....it is priceless!!! Ok let me finish watching lol. :)
I feel so warm inside ☺️ your videos are so wholesome and just what the internet needs thanks for the information!
*makes plan to check all roots and mix up new potting medium* I love how helpful your videos are. You’re adding to my shopping list but also making sure I kinda know how to care for the plants!
After awhile, I recommend double checking your moisture meters or getting a good quality one. Mine was giving me wacky readings (i.e. saying it was dry when it was wet). Also clean the rods with alcohol between use so you get accurate readings and don't transfer anything funky to other plants.
Hey Paula!!! Love this:)) I have seen some comments saying that they don't like other videos about using the finger method, but I don't use a moisture probe and wait for my Phils to just about dry out (when the pot feels very light) I do so much by feeling do to the fact I'm partially blind and ALL my philodendrons look beautiful, but if I was to purchase one I will use your method...I have a hard time trusting gadgets :))
Emily
@@illumlife588 Hi Emily! Nice to see you here! Yes, I notice first that my moisture probe was taking a long time to register the moisture level. I would have to put it in and then come back. Eventually, it was totally wrong. Like Kaylee Ellen mentioned in the video, I noticed that giving a plant a soaking til water came out the bottom did not always suit the plants. My Ficus Audrey will drop leaves if I do that. I also like how she mentioned roots don't always go through the bottom hole if a plant is root bound. I would say caring for plants in our unique environments is experiential and instinctual. You learn by overwatering and getting fungus gnats like I did or just by knowing what your plants need based on the type of light they get, pot they are in and if all else fails testing the soil by hand will do the trick!
Paula Bollers any recommendations on a good probe? Mine is definitely giving wonky readings
@@younghomestudio1396 I was just looking for a good one on Amazon to use in the winter. They seem to have the same mechanisms. Honestly, I think they probably all go a bit wonky after a few months. Maybe we have to just plan on haveing to buy a new one after awhile.
Kaylee - I think this is probably the best information I have heard in regards to watering. I always see people ask and your answer of It really just depends... is completely correct but you also go over why. Great job!! Loved this video!
I learn so much from your videos! I appreciate the effort you put into making the content. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Ohhhhh yes!!! I bought a philodendron micans and brasil recently so thank you for this 😃
I love how thorough and clear your explantion is! Ty
You are just awesome. I love your videos and I watch them every chance I get. HUGE FAN!!!!
Such a beautiful and professional video. Well hosted and just about the right amount of information. Glad I stumbled upon it.
Your Tipps really help! Thank you Kaylee
Thank you so much for explaining your water numbers.
I’d been debating on s moisture meter for a while now, and I just watched another one of your videos where you listed numbers for watering specific plants but didn’t knw what you meant.
Your videos are so extremely helpful!
Thank you for this video ! I have several typical philodendrons but recently got the Gloriosum and a Mamei and this video is so helpful 🙌🏻💚
Philodendron are one of my favourites spieces, this is so helpful! Yay, best part of friday!
Istg u make the best videos, like I haven't finished the video yet but I already know its gonna be fantastic

First timer, you are adorable. I love that you time stamped very nice touch.
I LOVE that you gave me a number for my water meter to get to before watering. It is so much easier for me to stick the probe in and see that it is at a 3 than sticking my finger in and trying to decide if I feel moisture.
Love your videos!! So informative !! Thank you !
I just flipping adore you! you’re such a huge inspiration to me. 💚🌿
OH MY GOODNESS I needed this video so badly! I have a verrucosum coming next week and I feel like an expecting mother freaking out about how I’m going to care for this thing when it gets here. This video is unbelievably appreciated
Thank you so much, I was waiting for your Philodendron guide :D ! I would love to see more videos about them. I would also love to see videos about some basic stuff like how to choose pots, how to set up a nice growing area for our babies or even what are the different type of soil and how to choose the perfect mix ^^ . Anyway, I really love your job here on YT and on the Rare Plant Shop :) ! Thank you :D
Ooo I hope this becomes a series I love it ❤️
I love, love, love this video. Any videos about aroids are great. Thanks so very much. Much love and many blessings.
Thank you Kaylee for this
That was very helpful! Thank you 🌿🤍
I just got a philodendron verrucosum today! Perfect timing!🥰
This Video ist everything, thank you so so so SO MUCH
I'm SO glad to hear that the melanochrysum is an easy going variety. It's my #1 wish list plant 💚
I love this video♥️
You should do a video on anthurium care !!
I'd love to see both videos, the aroid potting mix and easy philodendrons! 😊
That was excellent! Thanks so much really enjoyed
Super info, thank you!
So glad you did this video. Trying to grow my small philodendron collection and you've given me a lot of choices to consider. Thanks so much!
I just had to tell you that your name made me laugh😆😆.
@@RuthiesSucculentObsession Thanks, I am getting a little better. Only killed two last month.
@@yeahivekilledthat719 I'm glad to hewr you're getting better👍👍. Is there a specific type of species thst typically dies for you? I am having a heck of a time trying to make my relationship with Alocasia work out. Slowly but surely I will conquer her😆😆. Begonias are a bit iffy too but maybe my humidifier will fix both those problem plants.
@@RuthiesSucculentObsession Yes, I have a heck of time with lithops and astrophytrum asteria. Slowly learning that lithops need more water that I originally thought. For alocasias, I water less than colocasias. Also, I was able to get rid of the fungus with a copper fungicide.
Oh wow, love the unicorn! Such a helpful video thank you
Picked up a Xanadu Philodendron today and I’m so excited!
Thank you SO much for such an in-depth, timely and incredibly useful video!! I had purchased a moisture meter after watching one of your videos and, as soon as I watched this, went to Amazon and ordered a couple of hygrometers! Someone has already asked (and you kindly answered) my question in the comments about my Gloriosum. The two leaves it has seem to be getting a bit yellow and the new leaf is taking forever and a day to unfurl. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and passion in your videos-can’t wait for the next one!!
Love your videos, please do an in-depth guide for Anthurium as well, thanks heaps Kaylee!!
This video is just perfect - exactly what I needed to know. Thank you for making these videos :-)
Enjoyed your video as always.
Absolutely LOVED this video!!!
Totally helpful Philodendron info. Thank you!
This is great Kaylee! Very informative!!
I’d like to find out more about care tips for variegated monstera and difference between variegated monstera borsegiana and deliciousa. Thank you!
Charming. Watchable and full of expert advice..I'm just starting these plants...and here goes...the addiction has started. Thanks again. 😊
Thank you so much..I have recently subscribed your channel n found it really informative...
I’d love to see a video on easy philodendrons. They’re currently too intimidating for me, but I’m hopeful for the future. 😊 Thanks for all the informative videos!
Omg My Beautiful Kaylee holaa from Puerto Rico i loooove your plant videos soooo much💚💚💚💚
Just received a Philodendron Rojo Congo in a plant trade! I already have a heartleaf, so it's nice to have variety. I'm absolutely in love with this new baby. Thanks for the video!
Wow. This is such a good video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us! Love from Louisville Kentucky! (Yes I said that with much southern twang 😉)
Great info and video. Was wondering how to care for them. Thanks 😊
This was just the most informative video! Thank you. Me and my husband just love u and ur channel. Can you please do a care video for antiriums!!! Would be so thankful!
I’m loving your videos! All your background settings are absolutely beautiful! I would love to see a video on how to tell the difference between a Philodendron Rojo Congo and a Black Cardinal. I supposedly bought one of each today, but they look the same to me.
i’ve been hesitating to adopt a melanochrysum but i guess i’m going to get it soon! thank you Kaylee!
Awesome, awesome, awesome video! Thank you! 👍💗🌿
"Full on hairy" :) absolutely love your videos. So informative, yet so down to earth :)
Yes to ALL the philodendron videos 😬🙌🏻
Kaylee I'm only a minute almost 5 on your video and what excellent advice about watering. To me it's sort of intuitive when a plant needs watered and after you have it for a little while you understand its needs and if you do a little research understand it even better. But some people are new to plants and they really don't have a clue how to water and they're scared the plants going to die so they tend to over water. So you have explained this in such a great way I'm a retired teacher and I taught for 32 years and substituted for 13 and it always amazed me new teachers and how they don't understand how to really teach if someone doesn't understand something like one of the students in math maybe he's not understanding triple digit multiplication or division or something. And they were so bright they got straight A's never struggled to learn anything top of their class but have no clue on how to teach. I had to explain to my children my students that the way I and my paycheck is not to present something and see if they understand it but if they don't understand something to teach them in a way that they come away with oh now I get it! And you are doing such a great job explaining the nitty gritty part of watering which is one of the most important parts of having house plants or even of gardening. Come to my channel on CZcams everyone I want to see comments that's what I look forward to seeing every day take care Kaylee great job!!
Always lov watching ur video
Easy philodendron please please please! I love them! 😍
I hadn't even considered humidity with my philodendron, thanks for mentioning that!
Yey, happy friday as always 🤩🙌
Excellent, informative video!!
I dont care what anyone says. There is so much to be learned from you. They cannot progress because their hate keeps them from learning. This is the beginning video of me binge watching all of yours while I'm in the greenhouse. I hope you get so big, they cant even see you. You deserve it. Much love
I love Philodendrons and I loved this video 💙🌻
Liz Cowen Thank you, Kaylee, for all this detailed knowledge - I am a beginner! I bought whatever I found on a tube stock site here in Australia. Both are loving life near my north facing window (southern hemisphere). New shoots on both! One is a P. Rojo Congo and the other is a P. Silver Sword. I've a lot to learn!
I love your videos!
Thank you thank you thank you so freaking much for making this video!!!!!!!!!!
Your remarks are informative!! They are easy to grow. I have a few different ones.
Excellent video!!
Thank you! Really great video! I like philodendrons. So this is helpful. I had a scandens with tiny leaves, hardly watered it, stayed in medium light. Then I moved & it got terrible gnats!! ...so I put it outside in the sun & rain in spring & lots of it died off. I brought it back inside in a northeastern windowsill and it surprisingly popped out tons of new BIG leaves. Like the size of my hand! Now it’s in a nice hanging pot in my warm south facing front living room about 6’ away from the window...and we are loving life together 😂 What a neat experience I had with it. You’re right it doesn’t like a lot of water to run through during watering. Just a bit to moisten everything is fine. I feel like me and my plant went through a ton and now I understand it so much more.
I would like to see a video about your soil recipe.
I would also like some eye candy of all your philodendrons possibly in the room and light situation you have them in.
I like to see plants in videos but it would be really helpful to see them where they are actually growing.
Thank you!! Sorry for the long message. Have a great day.
I love the video!! Could you PLEASE do a similar video on the begonia maculata? Care, watering, propogating, soil and all the sweet stuff!!
love your plants tottaly awesome im subscribed thx alot great job!!!!
Love your videos xx
Love this! 💕
i would love a soil video, this video was so amazing as I start my plant adventure.
great video, very informative, thank you
Regarding fertilizing, if you repotted, wait 4-6 months before adding any. Most soils have lots of nutrition and some even have fertilizer in them so extra can burn the roots. I put a note in my planner when I repot so I know when I can fertilize 😊
Thank you. Recently I am in love with the philodendron plants, their larger leaves is so beautiful. This video is exactly what I need. I do have some philodendron plant. I will use the #3 to determine if they need water 💧. Sometimes it's gone dry too long, cause I am not sure when to water, losing leaves turned yellowish. ❤
Just a warning - your description has the lighting timestamp as 16:05 when it's 6:05. Love your videos and thank you for all the lovely tips!!!
Thank you! Fixed :)
Hi hello from Russia. Thanks for sharing this information. It's a pleasure to see you as well as to hear you 👍🤗
Besides from all the plant porn your hair looks gorgeous in this video👏🏻😍.
I love your videos I live in Belize (central america) where some of these philodendrons grows wild In our lush jungle .
Thank you once again.
Very very informative 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Thank you so much 🙏🏼💚🕊🙋🏻♀️☮️
binge watched your videos, going to be broke for years now. you are awesome!
I love philodendrons! I have so many but my Brasil is the only one that hasn't given me any trouble. I've had it about 6 months and it's doubled in size. Thanks for the video!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You just saved my Philodendron brandtianum.
I would love a dedicated easy philodendron video 😃
Also hastatum! Super easy and beautiful ❤️
I bottom water my philodendron and pathos now and they are growing great 🥰🥰
I just bought 5 philos, so this was very good timing and super informative ☺️
JessaWabbit oooh, what kinds?
Wow, thank you for asking! I’ve been wanting to tell someone, but nobody I know is interested haha.
I bought a Florida beauty, a moonlight, an autumn (I think it’s a hybrid), gold cordatum and a black cardinal ☺️☺️☺️ have you had any of these before? Any tips would be great, thank you ☺️
@@JessaWabbit wow, lucky! You've got a lot of beauties on your hands 😍
I've only got a tiny baby gold cordatum and it seems to really appreciate humidity and bright, indirect lighting. I also have him in well-draining soil. Honestly this video is probably perfect for all of them, care-wise!
Humidity seems to be a common theme for all these houseplants 😉 thank you for sharing! Best of luck with your philo also ☺️
