Thank you so much for taking the time to give the opportunity to help. it means a great deal for starter like me to collect succulents. Very much appreciated.
Thankyou for creating this video. I am from a very hot and dryish region of India, and found that I could relate a lot to your video, especially since I was looking out for succulents that could be grown outdoors and in direct sun light. It was really good of you to mention the temperature and humidity range of your region since one can easily relate to and compare it to one's own area. Also a big thankyou for using the proper botanical names of the plants since this makes it easier to Google and discover specifics of each type, especially while shopping for plants. I find this much more relatable to, as compared to videos of USA and AUS region, where the prolific use of non botanical names makes the "searching" Process so complicated, particularly when searching for plants from local nurseries.
This video was really informative. I myself am growing most of my succulents outdoor in Singapore and I do agree with your list of outdoor succulents that can withstand direct sunlight. Now I know what other succulents I can add on to my collection. Thank you for the video!
I love coming back to this video. Is there anyway you can make a video of the succulents you leave out 100% of the time? I think it would be encouraging to those who live in hot and humid climates and to newbies who accidentally overwater and need strong varieties that might survive. This year is the first year I haven’t felt like Succulents are similar to flowering annuals where you enjoy them for a season and replace them for the next season. This is partly because of your help 😋.

Thanks for your video. I live in south Florida (US). My succulents do great in the winter when it's dry, but the summer rains are stressful. I'm constantly moving my pots around.
Thank you so much for sharing! I have always thought succulents were suited for cool, dry temperate climates, after my first attempt trying out an assortment and all died, placed in my partial shade porch outdoor. your guide is really helpful to show which ones are very suited for full sun, coz i think that's where they do best, well at least for this range that you've shared! hope is kindled for a succulent lover wannabe hehe
This was very helpful👍👍 I just potted two arrangements to flank my front entrance , and I needed something small for the outer edge of the pot. Our climate here in north Texas is very hot and humid in summer as well, so your selection will do well for me.
Thank you for making this video! I live in Florida, USA where it is hot and humid. I am rather new to succulents collecting so am always looking for expert advice. I do wish you would put (or say) the common name of each succulent tho instead of the horticultural name only bc when searching to buy specific succulents lots of time you will only find them by their common name. Thank you. ALSO I noticed you recommend NO dirt in the pots only spagmum , peat, or coconut and the gravels. Where do they get their nutrients from?
So many of us in tropical and sub-tropical climates need your content, your advice. I hope you will continue to share your advice. I have a video suggestion. If you live in an area where there are any succulents in the soil and thriving, take videos of them and share. It gives us hope!
@@life.greenery6060 I see how confusing that was. I meant to say, in the ground. I live in Central Florida, there are people with succulents in the ground but most are in pots. I always try to get pics of ones in the ground around here and share in our Florida Succulent group. It is always inspiring. I LOVE to see images of anyone's outdoor succulents, in the ground. Even when they are in dry climates and can have gardens that I could never reproduce, it is inspiring.
@@nannetteaustin2308 ok. I understood now. I do have friends who planted his succulents in the ground and they are exposed to rain and direct sun. They survived. However, it depends on the species. Some hardy ones can do well. Nk prob, in tropical and subtropical areas. Florida climate should be fine for them. Maybe in summer, you may have to put a shade cloth for them.
Hello life greenery. Really admire your efforts in making such detailed videos. They are very helpful. Like the fact how you mention the soil mix the difficulty levels the pots n your place n climate. It really helps us in thinking n understanding. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work. Love your succulent collection’s🙏🏻
haha i've killed some of those 0/5 succulents. was using normal succulent soil as a beginner. will try again. ty for including the mix info for the various plants. I haven't seen the ghost plant around, I really like the way it looks.
I have one question: is there any reason why u dont you top dressing in your pots? Your plants look amazing, and top dressing them would escalate the beauty level through the roof imo😉
For my humid and hot climate reference. They love dappled direct sunlight, sometime they can take full sun if you train them.. They love rain water. So dont shelter them from the rain. Propagating - stem cutting. Cut, air dry and stick into the medium again. Resurrection - behead them, new growth point will form and new shoots will be seen.
Really very informative and recently I have just started having succulent plant. I’m having some problem with my jade plant. The leaves are falling and I left it out in the sun, everyday for 4hrs. By the 5th day I noticed leaves are turning black. :( Singapore weather is like msia, I tnk jade plant cannot be under sun.
Thank you so much for this video. I have succulents same as yours and im afraid to place them in full sun because of possible sunburn. But now i think i really have to. This is very interesting video. More echeverias that can be placed in full sun please. -Subscriber from the Philippines.
Kalanchoe Daigremontiana Veriegata OMG i will never want to see this plant in my garden .... Its a disaster ... In Bangladesh it can even grow on the brick wall and we are getting tired to get rid of them !!!
Thank you for sharing this video cuz most of the nurseries in Malaysia doesn't show what are the names of these wonderful plants so this is a very helpful video to help identify my kind of succulent as well thank you✨✨ and pls recommend some places to get these plants 😍😍cuz I've tried to find some of them🥺
Hi thanks.. Some of them are easily avaible in nurseries. Some you can get from online sellers. Because most of the time, nurseries wont know their name and care for each of them. Try scout around.. Now you have the ids :) lots of online sellers now in shoppe and Facebook :)
Hi. From malaysia too! Your video is very informative. Never thought they can be outdoor. Do you water them, say if it rains everyday or it doesn't rain for a few days or u don't water at all for outdoor succulents? What kind of fungicide do you use and how to apply them ? Thanks and take stay safe!
Hi nice to meet you. For these, I dont water them. Unless it doesnt rain for a week, then i water. I dont move them in even it rains every day. Recently was raining non stop almost every day, they are still thriving. I planted them in small pots, use terracotta, and 80-90% gritty mix. I apply fungicide once a month. I apply carbendazim or recently i use another systemic fungicide i spray on them.
@@life.greenery6060 Hi. Thank you for your experience and advice . Will try to plant succulents outdoor with full sun n rain. Without this sharing, I wouldn't know it's possible! When u say small pot, how many cm you are using ?
I have a problem with stem rot and maybe spider mites? Like a black small mark/dots on the leaves mostly in the lower leaves, do you have any idea what should i do? I live in indonesia btw 😁 And i can say; graptopetalum superbum Pachypitum oviferum graptoveria bainesi, titubans Echeveria culibra, shaviana, lemon lime Kalanchoe luciae/thyrsiflora, cooper spoon Crasulla campfire They are few of my succulent that reaaallly love water and full sun all day.. i think as long as they get the right treatment when acclimates most of succulent will survive 😁 cmiiw
Wow.. Thanks for adding to my list :) the stem rot problem is the main problem that i face too here. Is because of weather and the fungus attack. Those black fots at thr lower leaves definitely fungus caused by rain. I spray fungicide on them.
Haha. Actually i dont need to purchase becasue i have a supplier friend from Cameron Highlands where i can get plants from her. But usually these nice plants only available online. Normal nursery wont find them.
Thanks for the great video as always. 🙂 I have portulaca gilliesii but they are turning more green than red, and has not flowered for a while. This pot is placed in brightly lighted area, so how can I get it to become red again? Your advice is greatly appreciated.
it depends on species. those succulents in my videos have been with me more than a year :) Yes, they thrive in temperate climate but we can still grow them in tropical climate. :)
May I share a link to your video with a Succulent Facebook page? It is a private group. I was hoping you wouldn’t mind me sharing the list of your plants with images from this video too. Please let me know if this is OK with you.
Depends on the environment i would say. If you stay at a place which is cool (max temperature is 25). Normal garden soil can be used but only 20%..i would suggest. If you would like to put them outdoor. Reduce the soil amount. But if your area is hot like mine. Garden soil inwould avoid as it retains too much moisture in the soil
