I would not change the way you approach doing videos. I like what you do and how you do it. Your channel is unique and not a copy cat of so many other channels. Hope this helps in keeping your channel original not changing to fit what everyone else does

Hi Jeff, I just got back from Florida and the whole time i was there i kept thinking of you. Palm trees everywhere🌴 and banana trees too. We had a great time and I even got engaged on the 4th! Glad to be back home now and of course catching up on all the work that needs to be done after vacations.. laundry, mowing, watering all the sad plants you come back home to. You have definitely been on my mind and it was nice to watch a few videos back to back of yours that i had missed. You dedicate so much time into your plants and make terrific videos for all of us. And for that I thank you.💚💚💚❤️

Hi Jeff! I love your videos just the way they are. Anything you want to do will be great! Those bananas are so pretty, and I really like the one you added the sunpatien to. I always look forward to your videos. I know I'm usually a few days behind, but that's because I love reading the comments, and the more the better. ;-) Thank you so much for sharing!

I also had to go to the big city and stopped at my local garden center, I was looking for some coleus for a sunny area and of course this time of year they have nothing left. I did end up with a six pack of variegated sun patients, my last try for them, they don’t like me but they sure are pretty. 🌸💚🙃

Hey that's a nice find! Sunpatiens are few and far between here this time of year. I'd imagine coleus will be more prevalent in a few weeks when fall annuals start rolling into the nurseries.

they've done well so far. I ordered that Colocasia Tosakkan, I found it for A LOT less than $219. Still coming from Thailand so it will be a while before it grows out and I can see what it really looks like compared to the picture.

I've got only two bananas thus far...dwf.cavendish which should set fruit this year and scarlet torch which flowered all winter in the greenhouse... looks almost exactly like a helicona and grew no higher than 4ft.....but omg this year my tabernaemontana littoralis(milkyway tree) has grown to 8ft tall and 7 foot wide in a 40gal pot....my artabotrys hexapetalus aka ylang ylang vine is in a 30 gal planter and is over 10ft tall and almost as wide, my brazilian red cloak is 8+ft tall and 5ft wide in a 30 gal pot...my darkstar alocasia is in a 20gal pot...this is year #2 with it and this year it took off...my borneo giant and portora have also followed suit....it's horribly hot...triple digit heat and muggy as f*ck....I can literally show u pics of wilted prickly pear cactus from here in south texas.....how crazy is that?! I also totally understand the tissue culture thing lol... my red medinilla magnifica was tissue cultured and I've had it since march and it's only just barely big enough to transplant into a 2in pot....have

QUESTION: I want to move my hardy banana tree and I’m wondering when the best time to do that would be? They come up so late in the spring and I never know where they’re going to surface. I figure if I move it now and give it a lot of TLC it might be alright ? That way it can get some good roots established before winter shows it’s ugly head. I don’t know, what do you think? 🌸💚🙃
@TropicalPlantParty

You could move them, but it's really important to get a huge root ball with them, doing as little damage as possible and keep them hydrated as much as possible.

I live in zone 8b (very hot direct sun) and have transplanted hardy bananas with good results. Along with what Jeff suggests, I put 4 stakes in the ground and drape burlap on them covering the tree. I heavily mulch to retain moisture and several times a day water the entire tree including the leaves and burlap. Of course this depends on the tree height but I recently transplanted a 6 footer and now is putting out new leaves.

Hey Jeff I saw some discourse online about the monsteraThai being prone to root rot (especially the ones that have been in TC) what has been your experience with your Thai?
@TropicalPlantParty
Жыл бұрын
I haven't grown a tissue cultured thai, but id imagine that a lot of that is more due to the plants immaturity and incompatibility with the growers medium vs what's appropriate to use at home. All deliciosa are more prone to rot when they're smaller plants with less established root systems. Personally I've never dealt with that as an issue with my Thai, but I have with new ones that needed to moved out of the less breathable soil used by the growers.
@hyperfixation9536

@@TropicalPlantParty interesting, a theory that pretty in green KZitemr and some others have proposed has been a pythium infection in the TC plants and I have had a lot of anecdotal experience of friends losing theirs to root rot. Personally my deliciosa grows like a weed. I was considering growing a thai due to this experience but I don't want to make a pointless investment if it is already set up to fail. Thanks for your input.
