    Beautiful plant, I love the glossy leafs. I like the snow cap and the variations.

    I had no idea these were perennial. I always thought they were a tropical. I learned something new today😊

      Well some are tropical/subtropical, just have to research ones hardy for zone 7a and 6 to see which are more hardy. Lots to pick from!

    Love this plant in deep shade under my trees outside. Biggest issue I see here in Florida is people plant them where they are over exposed to the Florida sun and get cooked.

    I have a couple of these. I'd recommend them for a beginner. I put mine in a terracotta pot because I find plastic pots have less moisture evaporation from the soil and can lead to overwatering issues

    I don't really have an opinion on them one way or the other but I am leaving a comment because it seems rude not to.🤣 Hope you are able to find a new patio umbrella that won't fall apart after two weeks.

      😆 I'm not even trying anymore. I'm keeping this torn up one until the storm season has passed. Looks like garbage but im sick of throwing money away on the dang things. I have a high quality one up in my attic but its a replacement canvas that needs to be attached to a frame and I don't have time for that right now.

    Hi Jeff! I really like the looks of the Cast Iron plant, especially the snow cap and variegated ones. I haven't tried one yet, but may pick one up if I see one. I'm pretty leery of plants that tend to attract spider mites, like ivy. I will NEVER buy another ivy for indoors. Really appreciate all of the tips! Thank you so much for sharing!

    Mine is nearly a decade old, and it is starting to push itself out of the soil because the rhizomes have all hit the edges of the pot. Time to divide! I have a 'Milky Way' one that has much more vigour than the regular green for me. 🥂

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  Před 5 měsíci

      Super sturdy! Mine always die back fully when it drops below zero. Maybe I should lift them and plant them a smidge deeper? I don't know how much that would help the hardiness of the foliage though.

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  Před 5 měsíci

      Plant them in well drained soil in a spot that stays relatively dry in the shade. If you have a spot near a wall or the house that offers some winter protection, that's even better.

    I managed to kill my cast iron plant. It was living in the house and I brought it outside for the summer, I had forgotten that it was in a pot with no drainage holes, it drowned. It rained exceptionally hard one day, thinking nothing of it when I did finally check on my plants the cast iron was flooded. ☹️🪻💚🙃 Lessons learned. I can and do plant some of my plants in pots without drainage because I tend to underwater all of my plants. I just can’t take the plants outside when their in pots without drainage. ☹️🪻💚🙃

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  Před 5 měsíci

      Oh yeah I'm the same. Can't take anything outside if it doesn't have a drainage hole. That's why I drill over-flow holes in all my self watering pots. Hate when that happens!

    I THINK you have a Plumeria ? If you do maybe you could make a video on Plumeria care indoors ? I want to try another one very badly, I fell in love with them when we visited Hawaii many years ago. I definitely have the time now to try one again. 🪻💚🙃

      I agree, I had two cuttings… followed all directions and the both shriveled up and died. I am heartbroken. I would love to have a beautiful plumeria in my yard!

    • @TropicalPlantParty
      @TropicalPlantParty  Před 5 měsíci +2

      I ditched my plumeria when it got really big. Mine had plain dark red flowers on it that I wasn't crazy about. I did a video on them. It was more on their winter care indoors though since I've always just kept them outside during their growing season. I think if you search, "tropical plant party plumeria" the video should show up for you. 😊
