Sort by:
A difference between the Philo Mc Colley's Finale and a Prince of Orange is that the young leaves of Mc Colley's Finale are red and the Prince of Orange are orange in color. Orange leaves are also more elongated.
My advice for this cutting:
Let 1/3 of the soil dry between waterings. I recommend a terracotta pot of around 12 cm.
Parcel packaging:
*The cuttings are packaged bare root, well protected in sphagnum moss (to retain humidity during their journey). Depending on the species of cuttings (e.g. succulents), sometimes I put dried sphagnum moss or pack them into the growing pot.
*All cuttings sold in the store are rooted in soil and substrate (unless indicated in the advertisement).
* The cuttings are then wrapped in kraft paper (approximately 90 gm thick) and they are slipped into strong and rigid boxes. Depending on the type of plant, I also add two layers of kraft paper and secure the package continents with paper. I limit the use of plastic as much as I can.
Shipments:
*Shipments for FRANCE are made from Monday to Thursday. Parcels are sent with Colissimo without signature. If you want, I can also send you to the relay points of your choice. Do not hesitate to contact me (mobile number is obligatory in this case).
*Sends to the EU are only made on Mondays (rarely Tuesday or Wednesday if time permits).
The Heat Pack:
*The heat pack is a heater that is very useful for transporting cuttings during the winter. It helps the cuttings retain some warmth during periods of frost.
*Heat packs should simply be thrown away after use. We do not mix them in our substrates etc.
*We order them when the night (or morning) temperature drops by minus 10 degrees.
*The heat pack is sold separately and the direct link is here:
https://rb.gy/orzwxr
After receiving the package:
*You have your cuttings now. What to do?
Cuttings received in packages are sometimes hungry and tired, which is very normal after a trip. Before taking them directly, we take a small glass with it (¼ part of water) and we put the sphagnum moss received and the cutting in it for about 3 or 4 hours (we do not pass the cutting directly in water because the roots are used to substrate and bacteria in the substrate in combination with water can cause rot. If you ever want to hydro the cuttings, you must wash the roots well with lukewarm water (several times).
The choice of pot:
1.Size
We always use the correct size pots.
The risk of root rot is very high when a cutting is in a pot that is too large because the quantity of substrate and water is very important for the roots.
Large pot = Lots of substrate = Lots of water = Too much time to dry and the roots are bathed in water.
So it is important to put the correct pot diameter.
2. Material
We often talk about potting material, we use a terracotta or plastic pot (with a pot cover) etc.
Terracotta pots are generally ideal for plants. They help drain excess water from the entire pot surface and they also help the roots dry out a little quickly before the next watering. BUT in certain species of plants (like calathea/Maranta etc) the roots do not like periods of drought (even the shortest) and here we adopt plastic pots which are very useful in retaining humidity.
3. Background
We always choose pots with a pierced bottom (whatever the pot, ceramic, plastic or even terracotta).
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask me. I will be happy to answer you.

THE
For the first time in France, I have the pleasure of offering you this magnificent and rare variety of aglaonema, The aglaonema pink lipstick cutting.
Aglaonema is a very decorative variety. It is the easiest houseplant to grow, with several interesting varieties. Generally, dark green varieties can grow in shade, while variegated varieties require brighter light.
You will receive a cutting approximately 35-40 cm in height.
My advice will be to adopt a pot of around 12 cm in diameter.
The cuttings are sent bare root, well protected in sphagnum pouches. If the weather in your area drops below 10 degrees overnight, I advise you to take a heat pack with the cutting.
Alocasia azlanii, the sensation of the world! YOU WILL RECEIVE A CUTTING WELL ESTABLISHED IN THE GROUND FOR 4 MONTHS.
Interview: https://monjungle.com/blogs/news/interview-alocasia-azlanii
It was a plant germinated by myself from a bulb. At least 4 leaves. The leaves are very shiny. In the first photo, the blue on the leaf is currently the color of the sky.
The package will be packaged very carefully. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.

Rare Epipremnum Harlequin
This may be the first time you have expected this name in the epipremnum family...
It's been a few days since I came across an advert mentioning harlequin pothos and I began to find the literature behind this variety.
Harlequin has very little or no cream or lemon lime or Manjula color.
So think of the Manjula shape and variegated patterns without the lime green to yellow parts, just white and dark green coloring. Super easy to see the difference once you know.
You will receive a beautiful cutting of between 3-4 leaves already rooted in the ground.
Interview: https://monjungle.com/blogs/news/interview-epipremnum-harlequin
We treat it like a succulent (very little watering).
You will receive approximately 4-5 cuttings rooted in soil from Ceropegia woodii silver glory also known as string of heartless.
We treat it like a succulent! You will receive a similar plant as pictured.
French production!
The package will be packaged very carefully. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.
We advise you to leave it for at least three weeks to dry and then repot it in a pot.

Je vous conseil un pot d'environ 8,5cm en terre
Emballage de colis:
*Les boutures sont emballées racines nues, bien protégées en sphaigne (pour garder l’humidité pendant leur voyage). Selon les espèces de boutures (par exemple les succulentes), parfois je mets de sphaigne séchée ou je les emballe dans le pot de culture.
*Toutes les boutures vendues dans la boutique sont enracinées en terre et substrat (sauf indiquées dans l’annonce).
* Les boutures sont ensuite emballées dans une papier kraft (environ 90 gm d’epaisseur) et elles sont glissées dans les cartons solides et rigides. Selon le type de plante, je rajoute également deux couches de papier kraft et on secure les continents de colis avec du papier. Je limite l’utilisation de plastique au maximum que je peux.
Les Envoies:
*NOUVEAU: Pickup possible directement dans notre showroom à Septèmes-les-vallons (13240), Fr. N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour finaliser :)
*Les envoies pour la FRANCE sont effectuées du lundi au jeudi. Les colis partent avec Colissimo sans signature. Si vous voulez, je peux également vous envoyer dans les points relay de votre choix. N'hésitez pas à me contacter (numéro de portable est obligatoire dans ce cas).
*Les envoies vers l’UE sont effectuées seulement le lundi ( rarement mardi ou mercredi si le temps me permets).
Le Heat Pack:
*Le heat pack est une chaufferette qui est très utile pour le transport de boutures pendant l’hiver. Il aide les boutures à garder un peu de chaleur en période de gel.
*Les heat packs sont tout simplement à jeter après l’usage. On ne les mélange pas dans nos substrats etc.
*On les commande quand le temps de nuit (ou du matin) baisse de moins 10 degrés.
*Le heat pack est vendu séparément et le lien direct est ici:
https://rb.gy/orzwxr
Après le réception de colis:
*Vous avez vos boutures maintenant. Quoi faire?
Les boutures reçues en colis sont parfois faim et fatiguées, ce qui est très normal après un voyage. Avant de les remporter directement, on prend un petit verre avec (¼ part d’eau) et on mettre la sphaigne reçue et la bouture dedans pour environ 3 ou 4 heurs (on passe pas la bouture directement en eau car les racines sont habituées de substrat et les bactérie dans le substrat en combination avec d’eau peuvent provoquer une pourriture. Si jamais vous voulez passer les boutures en hydro, il faut bien laver les racines avec de l'eau tiède (plusieurs fois).
Le choix de pot:
1.Taille
On adopte toujours les pots en taille correcte.
La risque de pourriture de racines est très élevée quand une bouture est dans un pot trop grand car la quantité de substrat et d’eau est très importante pour les racines.
Grand pot = Beaucoup de substrat = Beaucoup d’eau= Trop de temps de sécher et les racines se trouvent baignent dans l’eau.
Donc c’est important de mettre le bon diamètre de pot.
2. Matérial
On parle souvent de matériel de pot, on passe par un pot en terre cuite ou en plastique (avec un cache pot) etc.
Les pots en terre cuites sont généralement idéals pour les plantes. Ils aident à évacuer le surplus d’eau avec toute la surface de pot et ils aident également les racines à sécher un peu rapidement avant le prochain arrosage. MAIS dans certaines espèces de plantes (comme calathea/ Maranta etc) les racines n’aiment pas les périodes de sécheresses (même les plus courtes) et ici on adopte les pots en plastiques qui sont très utiles à garder l’humidité.
3. Fond
On adopte toujours les pots avec le fond percé (quel que soit le pot, en céramique, en plastique ou même en terre cuite).
Si vous avez des autres questions, n’hésitez pas à me demander. Je serai ravie de vous répondre.

Like many plants in this family, these leaves may drop during the hibernation period. There is no specific hibernation season for this plant. But if the plant loses these leaves, it will grow back in the following weeks. You will receive a beautiful, well-established plant (between 4 and 6 leaves).
A well-established alocasia plant is more likely to not go into hibernation straight away.
ATTENTION: This photo is just for reference. As each plant is unique in size and shape, you will receive a similar plant to the one featured in the listing.
The package will be packaged very carefully. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.
