I have been growing numerous aroids such as them for a long time. We call Epipremnum Aureum as Pothos ans Epipremnum Pinnatum as Dragon Tails. They are very common here in the Philippines and are evasive that it is sold at a very low price and even given away as cuttings.
The Cebu Blue was discovered and named after one of our province here in Cebu. They are actually Epipremnum Pinnatum and not an Aureum(pothos). Juvenile Epis have different forms, shapes and colors but tend to look alike when turning into their mature form.
Thanks for sharing :) over here raphidaphora decursiva is sold as ‘dragon tail’ causing a lot of confusion :D
I love your perspective on how the plants don't care what name it is. My husband and I have adopted your recipe for avoid mix and moss poles. It has been a game changer, thank you. Jeff, (Washington state.)
Thank you :)
I'm from Washington also!!! Aren't his plans absolutely stunning?!?! Do you have any favorite places you order plants from locally? I love @we_are_plant_lovers but she's in California and sometimes Florida
Thank you for sharing your beautiful plants with us!!! You are the reason I am starting my moss pole journey!!
Happy growing :)
I have just started to follow your moss pole method! I’ve made 2 so far and so excited to see my plants thrive. Thank you so much for your informative videos, absolute game changer for climbing plants. Thank you brother 🙏🏻
Cheers :)
Yours is definitely Cebu Blue! The Baltic Blue is more green. I love all your plants and videos! Thanks for sharing :)
Agrred. I have but and its a Cebu Blue.
That’s definitely a Cebu Blue. My jaw dropped when I saw your mature plant. I will try your techniques. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks :)
Really appreciate your videos, you always do a great job! Keep it going
Thank you so much :) they can be a lot of work to prepare for, film & edit so appreciate you getting value out of them :)
Love your videos and the journey. Very informative! Thank you
Thanks :)
I love this. So beautiful!
Thanks for this awesome video ... I always kind of like this one but now I added it to the list of plants to get ...thanks for enlightening me ... and your plant looks awesome keep up the good work
Cheers :)
Amazing! Just like you said I had no idea it matures with fenestrations! Love it
Looks just like OnlyPlants, Sean’s Cebu he just propagated. Gorgeous plant! 💚 Guess I need too get one on a moss pole. 😀
Glad I'm not the only one who watches both of these guys
My weekend is now complete!!! Thank you sire💚
Thank you :)
Definitely the most beautiful cebu I’ve ever seen!
Thanks :)
What’s a beautiful plant! It’s an Epipremnum pinnatum cebu blue for sure not just because of the color but also the split pattern! It’s a bit different than the regular Epipremnum pinnatum. I I think name is important for scientific record accuracy but we are just hobbyists and we have no control over the name of the plant being sold to us lol.
I love Cebu blue! Or Baltic sea green or whatever they want to call it. I have three vines of different levels of maturity climbing a small branch I found, but it is definitely up next on my moss pole list after I deal with my pinnatipartita monster. Thank you for the ever entertaining content and plenty of scritches to Brad :)
Thank you :)
It's a cebu blue , leaves 🍃 split open went mature. Beautiful 😍 Love your plants 🪴
Yep, followed your potting mix & moss pole videos and bought a cebu blue. Also trying the pole with a cutting from my golden pothos because their mature leaves are stunning. 🙏🏼🤞🏼 that I have success over the next couple years.
Sounds like a plan :) happy growing !!
I come here for the amazing plants. I stay for the handsome Aussie and adorable kitty on my screen. 😉
Hehe thanks :)
Beautiful I just got a one leaf cutting - gotta start somewhere 😊 fast rooting for sure !
Looks like a Cebu Blue to me , not that it even matters 🤔, it’s gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge of aroids that you have garnered through experience!! Love how Brad hangs out amongst your plants. He’s a real Jungle Cat Lol
He is :) thank you
Cebu blue is one of few plants I truly fell in love with, I live in Northern Norway, and for the first time I saw this plant in a local plant shop and ofc I had to buy it! ( the one cutting I had purchased online last year sadly died a few months later). So hopefully I can make this new plant thrive better because it didn't travel across the country in a package 😛
Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks :)
I love that your cat just likes being involved 😂
He loves attention :D
2:06 true... That's the real plant lover does. Should love all plants 💚 .
Love your content ❤ The live viewing with the chat was a great idea. Also, 1:36 🙈
Was waiting for somebody to point that out hahaha :D get your mind out of the gutter !!:P thank you :)
I love your account.and your plant are beautiful ❤️
Thank you :)
Got my epipremnem pinnatum on a moss pole yesterday! Got a Baltic blue at Lowes, was really nice. (Will get a Cebu eventually too) Came with 9 plants in it. Pulled it all apart and washed off all the peatmoss. Put 3 plants in the pot (I put it back in the 6" pot it came in, with a 2.75" x 36" moss pole). 4 I put into a wall hanging pot and 2 went into single plant pots that I'm gonna turn into mothers).
Excited to see it grow!
Happy growing :)
Good evening :) so happy to have my first cup of coffee with your collection....oh yes it looks like a C B to me.....I do recommend the baltic blue.....you would like it :)...it is a darker blue and it is not pricey at all.....and the leaves seperate right away when not mature....can't imagine what a mature one would look like :)...I just got an Epiprmnum Pinnatum regular green form....hanging basket at my local home depot....it looks just like a cebu but green! never seen one in person EVER!!! So weird....Do you have one?? I would like the varigated as well....still do not have one.....your cebu is beautiful....everyone needs to calm down ha ha...great job...oh yes my cebu blue hanging basket is outside with mealy! My other hanging basket is happy and all the way to the floor! Thanks for all your hard work with your channel♡
Thank you :)
GORGEOUS
Wooww i love cebu blue esp if soo mature wth its metallic blue sheen, cebu blue originated from cebu, philippines, soo proud it came from our place🇵🇭
What an amazing plant. Also i love the format you did here! Since i am half german and half pinay i am super interested in this plant. Also you accent sounds kinda aussie german :0 ofc no offense:) i really like it!
-Roxy
Thanks :) yes it is aussie-german :D
I love your Cebu Blue. I'm growing Epipremnum pinnatim Cebu Blue, Baltic Blue, and Albo but I've only put my Baltic Blue on a moss pole so far.
Thanks :)
I love your plants I want all mines to grow big like this
Can’t wait for the next one.
Thanks:)
I keep rewatching this video as I love that cebu blue. Does the moss pole get really dry at weekly watering?
Gonna hunt one cutting down! Thanks for the inspiration
Your plants are beautiful 💚🍃💚🌱💚🌿🤗new subscriber👋☺
Thanks :)
Wow. Have you tried thicker or thinner moss poles? Does that effect your plants? What is the amount of squares you think is best when making them?
Thanks so much!
Hey, check out this video: Moss Poles - Why? How? #tutorial

I bought my Epipremnum pinnatum Cebu Blue in 2019 for the insane price of 1,500 pesos (about 25 US dollars) per 1 small pot with only 1 leaf which is expensive for a plant that's endemic to my country. I also have the regular or green form of Epipremnum pinnatum. I noticed that aside from the colors, they also have maturing stages. Unlike the regular Epipremnum pinnatum, the Cebu Blue produce pea-sized holes first before producing splits in leaves.
Awww but I just saw some for 1-2 USD in Shopee PH. Legit those with blueish silver leaves. Imma buy one.
Super cebu blue
I love Cebu Blue a lot (and this is definitely one of them). Mine is in a hanging pot and I let it grow down to the ground. But my plant’s leaves are not as big as yours although I like how it looks.
Unfortunately they will never get that big in a hanging basket. They have to climb up to mature.
@@joannnash847 yeah I know. I still like how it hangs though. So I think that’s a good reason to buy another one and make it climb on a moss pole :)
It's definitely the same color as my Cebu blue! My Baltic blue has a little more green tones
I just put 2 cuttings on a pole😁 Had the plant on my list, spoke to someone in my village who wanted a Colocasia pup of mine.. I got 5 cuttings in return 😎
Sharing is caring :)
Heya! Love your work. I heard you mention in this vid there is more than one vine on this moss pole. How many plants max would you say you could add to your moss poles?
Until it’s full :) i have up to 10-12 vines on a pole
Got my cebu blue today and putting it on a moss pole ASAP!!!
It’s called Cebu blue for a reason. It’s endemic and native to a specific province in the Philippines which is Cebu.🙏🏽
Thanks you :) i think I got it confused with the regular epipremnum pinnatum :)
'I hope you have a ceiling ', thanks 👍 great plant though, just chopped up some vines with small leave to create some mega pots
It looks like a Cebu Blue to me. I remember back in 2020 I was searching for Cebu Blue online and someone was selling at pretty low price (1.20usd, I live in the Philippines) but it was just a epipremnum pinnatum dragon tail or what we call tibatib. It was green so I knew it wasn't real. Found real ones on FB marketplace for 200php(4usd).
please also make a spot light about Philodendron Verrucosum 😍I adore your Verrucosum so much that I couldn't stop takling about it with my family and watching it's pictures and videos and finally my husband gifted me a little lovely Verrucosum🥰I want to do anything I can so that it can thrive. things I read on internet(they need +80 humidity) really concern me.
I made one already :)
mine just had its first fenestration today yay!
Proud plant parent moment !!! Well done :)
@@sydneyplantguy for sure! thank you
Did you go over the actual "chop and extend" process in a video? Where do you cut in relation to leaves, and so you trim leaves off the new "bottom" of the top cutting? Do you use rooting hormone? Do you keep it in water for a while to grow roots before planting in a new pot?
Chop & Extend Tutorial - Growing large plants on Moss Poles #mosspole #tutorial
czcams.com/video/x-1v3k29u8k/video.html
I am working on blue form and first fenestrations appeared. Need to extend the pole
Such a beautiful plant! What size of pots do you use? Would 15cm be enough to grow bigger plants?
Choose the size of your pot according to the existing root system :)
So do you recomend putting it on a pole sooner than later mine came in a standard pothos store pot it was all vined everywhere i took out 1 Ive been wanting to put it on a pole but not sure when ??🤔 beautiful cebu blue my ultimate dream plant when it looks like that 😄 … I’ve already rewatched all your videos You don’t see mature plants like yours very often or at all.
Yes I always put them on a pole when they are still small :)
Hello Sean, what do you do if the new leaf reverts to a smaller one? Would you recommend cutting it?
You can but I would just try and provide it with more light/nutrients to see if that fixes the issue first :)
I've been going vining plants other than tomatoes since Covid. Before that I was growing cacti. You've done great for your f I rst 3 years. I don't get the same results. Maybe I need more light. But than my Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma grew really fast this summer. And other plants don't want to grow much. THEY HATE ME, THEY HATE ME.
💯 it’s a cebu
I know you don't care but it is a Cebu. I have both. When the Cebu matures it fenestrates. Yours is beautiful. ❤
Hi . I love to see your plants and i very much agree with you , i do not care about true names of plant, while i may know lits of them i just love to care and grow them, it really relaxes me, sometimes if it were not for my plants , i think i would be really unhappy
Thank you :) i totally agree :)
Cebu blue are a must have if you grow them up "trailing" and if you let them grow down "hanging" they do miraculous things, I have a hanging Cebu blue that's 10 ft, actually have two they're like 10 ft. I would love to try a trailing Cebu blue I think I could have it do well
Since you were talking that during winter it gets more direct light, does it mean that you can compensate light duration with light intensity? Since it also gets dark earlier? I'm contemplating on getting a greenhouse cabinet to supplement light, but I'm also getting that extra direct sun in the winter.
On a scientific level i have no idea if that’s correct but my plants have still grown nicely during winter and I’d assume that’s the reason :)
@@sydneyplantguy I just read an article about it, and indeed, the intensity of light increases the rate of photosynthesis, but there is a plateau which is based on other factors such as carbon dioxide and temperature. But technically, increased light intensity does compensate for lower light duration!
If the leaf size of an philodendron decreases because you didn't put it on a pole
Does the leaf size increase again if you put it on one or do you need to prop the plant?
If you provide sufficient light & food then yes it will :)
Pinnatum refers to the splits, not the pinholes. A pinnate leaf is one that is divided into a row of leaflets, like a typical palm leaf. I've heard that Monstera epipremnoides was named after Epipremnum pinnatum because it (the real one that has just been rediscovered in the wild) has very small holes near the midrib, but I'm not sure if that's true.
Cheers :) makes sense :)
Thanks
Thank you :)
Ty for your content & precious time! From my research that is a gorgeous mature Cebu Blue! Great job! I do have a question about my monstera that I want to put on "your" moss pole that I made. The monstera has MANY ariel roots that I've wrapped around the top of pot!! I know some people cut them off but I could not bring myself to do that. So...what to I do with those ariel roots? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Ty, Michele 💜🌱
Thank you :) my suggestion would be to always start the pole with a small plant so the roots can grow into the pole from the beginning :)
@@sydneyplantguy I was afraid you'd say that!🤣🤣 Ty
Do you take your plants outdoors in the summer months or are they indoors all year round? They look stunning! Thank you.
I don’t have space outdoors for them so they are indoors all year around :)
@@sydneyplantguy Thank you. Amazing! I’m in New Jersey, USA and my plants don’t thrive outdoors in the summer, not even close, like yours do indoors! And it’s so much work!!! I’m beginning to see clearly that the moss pole makes the difference. Thank you for sharing your expertise and for the pleasure of seeing your gorgeous plants.
Which pothos do best for growing the large leaves? I have many varieties, with my manjula being so lovely. All of mine are trailing but I would love to grow them to have the large leaves. I would love to hear your suggestions. Thank you in advance...
Good old golden pothos or marble queen :)
Amazing!! Ive followed you on insta for ages and sooo glad ive found your YT! :D I didnt expect your accent, where are you from originally?
South Africa?
Germany :)
@@sydneyplantguy Ooo cool! :D
When I look up the difference between Ceba Blue and Baltic Blue the one thing that is mentioned is that CEBA Blues leaves never split but Baltic Blue does (when conditions are met) So is yours really a Baltic Blue??
Cebu Blue certainly develops fenestrations :) It's an epipremnum pinnatum after all
But how do you keep the moss poles moist??? I struggle with it unless i water every day or keep it outside 😭

My cebu blue and very small and is like a pothos and has no fenestration is it the same plant
How do you fertilise your plants with your moss pole system?
Watering Moss Poles #tutorial
czcams.com/video/dNBCIT080kA/video.html
I have Epipremnum giganteum... the leaves are approximately 100cm long. 30-35cm wide
The leaf motif looks clearly striped
This is definitely Cebu blue. Great plant, can't wait to pole up mine to grow big.
Thanks :) yeah I’m pretty sure it is, but you know how people are on the internet :D …
I second this. I have both a cebu blue and a Baltic blue…the Baltic has far darker color with the SLIGHTEST hint of a blue-green tint in certain light.
I feel like wanting to know the exact cultivar name is not always for status reasons but for education purposes. But I do agree, either way, regardless what the name is, this plant is beautiful.
Hi i love your videos and your plant is amazing. I wondered do you know if this species comes in a seed as i would love to try grow it. Thank you
Hey, sorry I’m not sure :/ thank you :)
Wow beautiful What fertilizer do you use thank you
Linked in the description :)
What fertilizer do you use? I couldn't catch it in the video

@@sydneyplantguy thank you so much!!! I literally. Inge watch your videos on loop while i sew, because, I learn something new each time!
Can you please tell me the diameter of your moss poles, I thought I heard you say they were 6 cm but that I am sure is not correct. I also have another question regarding the mix one might grow palms in, I live in Cairns, Nth Queensland. Thank you I am loving your posts and have learnt so much. 😊
Yes 6cm is correct :) i have never grown a plam so sorry can’t help with the second question :) thanks :)
I am so sorry to bother you again, I have rewatched … numerous time the video on moss poles & I am at pains to see how I can make a pole 6 cms in diameter. I have been looking at your outstretched hand when you hold the wire and that appears way more than 6 cms, my outstretched hand is 18 cms ( or 8 ins) and I don’t have a big hand. Can you resolve this for me 🙏🏼 please. 😊
Trust me it’s 6cms in diameter but honestly you can make it any diameter you want
Are you maybe getting diameter & circumference mixed up?!:P
@@sydneyplantguy So what is the circumference of the moss pole 😩
Wow, I had no idea that Cebu blue Pothos can fenestrate😮
Do this plant Cebu blue have a market, please reply
My cebu is the only pothos of my six varieties that apparently hates me! Is there something I’m missing? Does it have unique requirements from the rest of it’s family?!? Help, please!!!
Not that I have experienced. Sometimes it’s just that specific specimen that doesn’t wanna theive
Why don’t you have any colocasia?? Or do you and I missed them?? I just got a Black Beauty and I want a Pharaoh’s Mask but I don’t see many videos on them. Do you have any knowledge on them??
I mainly grow climbing aroids so sorry can’t help :)
@@sydneyplantguy Darn!! You are so knowledgeable I really wish you grew them also. Nonetheless I’m a new subbie and I’m going to stick around because I love your content!! Binge watching all week 😊
Thank you :)
Is there a Cebu Blue Small Form and a Cebu Blue Large Form ?
I don't think so. All plants can be juvenile or mature (and anything in between), and some change their appearance a lot as they mature.
Can you do a video on your strappy leaf plant?
I uploaded a community post about it today:?
I think the botanical name is important since two plants could look similar but one of them could be edible and the other poisonous 🤷🏻♀️
Pinnatum as in pinnate compound leaves
😍🤩😇😎🤠
Looks like Cebu to me, Baltic is barely blue at all. I've never seen a Cebu that could be confused for a Baltic.
The man draw of Baltic is that it fenestrates easily when young, even when still trailing.
Is that same family as montesera diliciousos or something 😢does it fruit could you also eat the fruit if it does 🤷🏻♀️
They are both in the aroid family. It can flower but don’t think it would be edible. I suspect nobody is out there growing aroids indoors to then eat them anyway. Would be super inefficient :D
Onlyplants just made a vid on his, it's huuuuge
holy cannoli
I think the pinnatum name is that because the veins are pinnate :) (is this a necro comment? Yes. I'm going through your backlog)
I love this plant, just bought a baby and hope to have one like yours eventually! One question, when you say you fertilise "weekly weekly", what does that mean? Sorry if that's a stupid question 😳
*weakly weekly. Usually a fertiliser comes with weak, medium & strong recommendations. I use the weak recommendation weekly
@@sydneyplantguy oh hahaha that makes sense 😅 thanks so much for replying 😊
My Cebu Blue certainly doesn’t look anything like yours!!! I actually really struggle with this plant 🤷♀️
Sometimes less is more :) as long as it gets sufficient light it should be fairly easy:)
If someone ever insisted on disagreeing on my channel I'd give them the finger!! I ❤️❤️ you
Thanks :)
