    Was cooking dinner with my phone playing this in another room. Was half listening while I cooked and then had to stop, go to my phone, rewind. Yes. Yes I did hear "penis pot" 🤣.

    Nick I am an Air plantaholic. I have hundreds and not all of them die when they bloom and they all give you babies before they die off if they do. I have several ionantha clusters that have formed from having babies and just keep multiplying!! Let them bloom and you will-love the babies!! 💚💚💚

    Fortunately, neither our cat nor dogs bother with the houseplants. The car sticks his nose up at catnip even lol I had trouble keeping up with watering my purple waffle plant, until I put it in a self watering pot. Now it's always happy and growing well. Just tried propagating it 2 days ago by just putting the cuttings right in the soil in a terrarium. Feel confident they'll do well

    Animals have a strong sense for survival.. most animals will stay away from toxic plants. My cats instinctively play with plants that are none toxic. Spider plants and the dracena dragon plant to name 2 of their favs.

    Every airplant I've ever owned has ultimately met it's untimely demise because a certain feral kitten turned indoor cat spotted them. I swear, doesn't matter where I put the airplants, my cat finds them, hides them, and then pulls them apart leaf by leaf! I managed to rescue one that had been missing for a month (cat had hidden it in her lair under the couch, lmao). She also loves to attack big, fenestrated leaves (RIP my monstera). She loves living with all my plants, so if I have to sacrifice a few for my annoying little furball, I am happy to! :P

    Hi Nick and Muffin! I always love seeing you both in a video! The only plant I have that you mentioned is a tillandsia. I started out with 5 and am down to one. ;-( I'll keep trying though! LOL! Yes purple waffle plants are very needy. I've tried them several times, but couldn't get the care down right. They are very pretty plants and I will probably try them again. My pup doesn't have any interest in my houseplants, thank goodness! Thank you so much for sharing!

    I’m very lucky my puppies don’t get in my plants ☺️. I know with cats is little more challenging to keep them away. So this is very good for pet parents to know. Thank you.
    And just to tell you that some begonias can be propagated by leaf. You recently mentioned in one of your videos, I don’t know scientific name but leaves look like kidney it big bean shape. And some other Rex begonias as well. It’s just longer process. I’m actually rooting one now just from the leaf. The same one you recently talk about in one of the videos.
    Ok I went and found the video you talk about begonia. Lol. It the one that you talk in the video “ PLANTS THAT THRIVE IN INDIRECT AND MEDIUM LIGHT” .
    I looooove watching your videos. ❤️
