I love how diverse succulents are. In my Zone 9b, it can be tough to take care of them sometimes, especially outdoors.. but it's so much fun taking on the challenge and watching how each one shows off their beauty. Thanks for sharing with us Mountain Crest Gardens and Cassidy. Love watching you both ❤🌵

This was so informative! I learned that my crown of thorns cutting my granny gave me ('mother' plant is over 40 years old) is actually a Euphorbia. Growing up we would clean off the dead leaves with my grandpa & talk about how pokey George was.

Aww, Pokey George!

Wow! To learn that the poinsettia is a Euphoria was trippy. 🤯

@thereselena 2 года назад

Loved learning about all of the differences from these two knowledgable women. Just don't ask how I did on the quiz! Thank you for making me better prepared to tell the difference!

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Aw thanks, Therese!

I follow Cassidy and love Mt Crest plants. Having the 2 of you in one video....MAGIC. I'm happy to say I tried to ID a few at the end and did pretty well but the pseudorhipsalis tripped me up but that's ok because it even got Cassidy. This was fun and educational. Funny story - my daughter bought me a cactus (I believe from a big box store) because it was blooming and she thought with my green thumb I'd make it bloom more...then I had to inform her that the "flowers" were glued on. She was shocked and sad to see that this is done. It was funny to see her reaction.

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Thank you! And of boy do I loathe those glued on strawflowers

@duybear4023 Год назад

They're both so beautiful. I love how each group has so many diverse forms.

@janineperkins5818 2 года назад

Oooh! Definitely did not know that poinsettia is a euphorbia. Very helpful knowing the spine vs. thorn distinction and also showy vs. simple flowers -- thanks! Nice to know that even experts struggle with ID-ing sometimes.

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Yay I'm so glad it was helpful!

@jillianleblanc9370 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing cactus have a blessed day lovely plants

@helenperalta3555 2 года назад

This was fun. I actually knew the answer to the last one 😆 Thank you.

@monteladow159 2 года назад

Excellent instruction... loved the "Quizette". Now looking a my 'Cactus's' and my (now Euphorbias) - not cactus I think I really learned something... and something really helpful and FUN!

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Wonderful, I'm so glad it helped!

@twilaharrison7524 2 года назад

Very informative! You gals work well together!

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Aw thanks!

@paygestevens9447 8 месяцев назад

Super informative! But a common misconception is that there is a Cereus Peruvianus, because it got tagged commonly as a Peruvian apple cactus. There is no peruvianus sub species within the Cereus genus

@igaudion973 2 года назад

Have watched so many of your videos. Big fan here in Australia. Planting a succulent garden right now so thanks for all the wonderful knowledge and Ill send you pics!

@Mountaincrestgardens 2 года назад

That's so exciting! And yes, please share pics! Side note, if you ever get the chance to hear Attila Kapitany speak, do. He's got to be my favorite succulent expert in Australia. Annie

well done, Cassidy!

@morrisparkintheozarks6831 2 года назад

Thanks for this video! I am a big Euphorbia fan!! The pachypodium is in the same family as Nerium oleander, plumeria , Adenium & periwinkles The Apocynaceae. And as you said about the sap, it is toxic. Nerium oleander is famous for its poisonous sap!! I have a nice Euphorbia collection here in the Ozarks. If you wish to see them go to Morris park in the Ozarks and see a few like my one of a kind hybrid" Enigma". Great pointers on telling the diff between cacus Euphorbias👍 thanks for sharing!!! From Morris park in the Ozarks,Peace ,Love,Plants✌💖🌵🌷🌴🌸🌲💐🌳🌺🌿🌻🍀🌹😀👍

@annieschreck7938 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing, your collection is GORGEOUS! And that E. 'Enigma' is too darn cool. Two-angled to three to four-angled?!

@morrisparkintheozarks6831 2 года назад

@@annieschreck7938 you are quite welcome Annie!! I have had my collection going for 40 years now. The Enigma is an ever changing plant!! Started like it's Mother stellata, and then just kept changing!! It is a very rare hybrid. I've looked all over the internet to see if anyone else has this stellata x evansii hybrid , or has tried to cross these two. This is the only one in the world!!! I am currently starting cuttings x6. These will have to start growing, and then i will do the two step with them so I can get normal plants from them instead of just the cuttings getting longer and longer. I am very excited!! I have a few hybrid Euphorbia growing from seed right now. Stellata x groenewaldii, Ceriformis x horrida, horrida polygona, ceriformis polygona, and opuntoides x enormis. I love making new plants!!! Thanks for watching Annie!!! From Morris park in the Ozarks , have a great weekend ahead!!! Peace,Love,Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌷🌴🌸🌲💐🌳🌺🌿🌻🍀🌹😀👍

Do you know if senita cactus have wood inside them when they are dried up and dead? (Like cholla wood)

@Mountaincrestgardens Год назад

They do! Root Gorelick wrote an article about it with great photos here: rootgorelick.files.wordpress.com/2017/03/gorelick-2016-haseltonia-22-18-211.pdf

All cactus are succulents but not all succulents are cactus

Yes!

@tinamarieussery3063 2 года назад

Interesting something I really didn't know I just assumed as euphorbias work apttus

@masterofpuppers7963 Год назад

Dude my Tanzanian Zipper plant bleeds if you look at it wrong. Such a crybaby. So I learned that the sap will come right off with turpenoid or mineral spirits.
