Big pots are actually expensive, and buyer must pay for it too. But in general plants are crazy cheap there. We have good size plants at a price of hundreds. This first one would be like 75 USD. And other day I saw euphorbia resinifera in a way smaller pot for 160 usd. You are so lucky over there:)
Hey Laura, I really love your videos and your design! Unfortunately, I'm living in the Netherlands and it's just impossible to grow succulents outdoors. Btw, the part I enjoy the most is you cutting the stems! So satisfying😝😝😝😝😝
STONEYS I feel ya! I live in cloudy Seattle and growing outside is soooo hard! I’ve got maybe 3 months if I’m lucky and most of my plants get leggy so I have a lot of grow lights hahaha!
I enjoy watching your videos, your tips. I would be crazy wanting to buy succulents there. You are my inspiration. I think you were the cause that initiate my love toward these plants.
That portulacaria is in the same order as cactus. I've tried steeling pieces of it but it's too tuff and stringy [you got to have a knife sometimes with teeth.] Probably closest to perez and rhipsalis and fishbone and schlumbergera and probably acanthocereus. And lets not forget the seasonal edible underrated portulaca oleracea weed that ties it all together.
I live in Belém do Pará / Brazil in the Amazon region. Strong sun and constant rain. Very few succulents can be grown like this, unfortunately. but I have mine in pots protected from the rain
@@rubyoro0 I absolutely adore succulents. But they are difficult to grow where I am from. The weather changes here are extreme through out the year so only a few survive.
Hi Laura! Thank you so much for sharing such great information! Those fire aloes are really bitten up, it seems someone had a great snack lol.. I love how many different varieties of succulents there are and I appreciate your knowledge!🌸
True, that aloe would not look good chewed up in the garden. Alive, but meh.. if you can find buffer plants that the pests like a little bit, leaving your specimens alone, that’s the best… One thing I’ve noticed with my ruschia (and ice plants/mesemb’s) is some ‘chewed’ ends. It’s in Coronado so I couldn’t figure out what it could be. No slugs or snails due to resident opossums and raccoons. Yes there are rabbits there but this is in a walled garden, off the ground, and there are cats around. I think I figured it out… At night time the rats and the mice will chew certain plants for water! So any of these filler plants, that they enjoy taking a little nibble off of, spares my specimens.
I would love to spend a day in nursery maybe two. I am from San Diego and miss my succulents. I have been in Colorado for about 20 years now. Love it here but also miss the ocean. Still do not know what I can grow and what I can’t. Just bought some succulent and am going to try again to grow some. Thank for this channel I really enjoy watching for all your information and to see some of my hometown.
I am here in NY. I did try plant some succulents in certain area of my front yard. It is incredibly well marched to the whole view. That succulent view make the front yard less crowded, by adding a nice tone to the beauty. I learn so much from this channel. Thank you!
Hi Luara. I have some ceramic vases that do not have a hole on the bottom for draining: what kind of bit do you recommend for safely drilling a drain hole?
Awesome tips as always laura! 😊👍 i was just their at waterwise on Saturday. I have video of your arrangement on my channel. I do have to say i was mesmerized by its beauty 😍 your work is amazing!!! ❤
