I did get that other birkin I had my eye in.....so I now have two....when I went back to the store....I decided if it was still there I would get it and.......it was there.....but it was because of your birkin video and how beautiful it is that this new one csught my eye! Wonderful video and it is going to make me have energy today to do dome repotting! See you soon, great videos!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks Justina. Well worth having more than one Birkin!

[@maryperrysmith5815]

Hi I just love your videos I learn a lot thank you for doing them really appreciate it ❤

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks for watching 😁

[@GenRN]

Wow! Your presentation has come soooo far!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Oh don’t watch my early stuff! 😅

[@GenRN]

@@SheffieldMadePlants 😂 while not quite as charming, still great information. It’s good to look back and see how far you’ve come!

[@beautifullyaligned]

Mine has roots that have grown completely around the soil, giving it like a sort of net appearance and it easily comes out in one piece when I pull it out of the nursery pot.. Time for a repot.. Thanks for the video!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks for watching 😁

💗 (edit: such a pretty plant)

[@DanielCostadaSilva]

Ok, still at 1:45 and you've already answered my doubt. Thank you! I've had a Philondedron Birkin for 40 days and I can feel that her pot is bulging, and I've seen a root coming out from the top. So yeah, matches what you said. Time for a repot!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Glad it was useful, thanks!

[@leighwatson1861]

Your older videos you seem more serious 😮

[@Fulita76]

When thinking about repotting a rootbound plant I picture getting a bigger pot each time ending up one day with an enormous pot for every plant. LoL So, in a case like the Birkin that only grows to about 3ft (1m), is it safe to say that once you put it in a pot that's proportionate to its full size you would just prune the roots each repotting? This could very well be common sense, but seems reasonable to question as there's so much out there regarding whether or not to disturb the roots when repotting. I notice that there are really no videos showing the repotting a large plant like a 2m Monstera or the like.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Yea that’s right. You can prune the roots and your plant will actually like it. Don’t cut more than a third off

[@jennsprague6080]

I was wanting to repot with an aroid mix...bark, perlite, worm castings, bit of charcoal, coco husks, a few lecas...would my birkin like that?

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Yes that’s perfect

[@thyaremighty]

I just water my plant and after watching , I do need to repot. Is it better to wait until it need another watering ? I do notice I need to water more frequently know I try to water once a week or when soil is dry.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

You can repot anytime really.

Hi, how to propagate a Birkin? I got one from the garden centre about 6 months ago, and he was doing very well until 3-4 weeks ago when his leaves started to get yellow. i stopped watering it, roots are healthy and not rotten, I changed his soil and the leaves are still turning yellow and mushy. Until he dies completely I want to propagate him but not sure what is the best method. do you have a video on this? thanks

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Not on a Birkin but I've got one on Brasil. Similar concept. Need to make a cut underneath a leaf node etc
