Greetings from australia. I have inherited my love of cacti from my grandmother who had a lovely collection over 100 yrs ago. I have one of her euphorias, as you can imagine it is enormous. She built a guadi type rockery and would wake me up to see her night blooming cereus. A rich upbringing.
Cherree Densley, wow! Over a hundred years ago, that is unbelievable. 😱 I would love to see some pictures if you can share them. It is amazing how these plants can easily outlive us. And they are like heirlooms. 🥰🌵
Oh WOW WOW WOW WOW what a WONDERFUL unboxing Ana :-D and BEAUTIFUL new Cacti additions, so gorgeous and perfectly healthy and potted up too, we was so excited watching this, and Happy belated Birthday too
Thank you Lyn. I am excited to see the flowers on these ones. Yes, the senilis is really an impressive mammillaria. I hope you can find one for your collection, too. Cheers from Vegas and stay safe! 😃🌵☕️
Happy birthday, happy year! Their packaging was meticulous, and I love that they have top dressing. What great choices, and so wonderful you already have blooms! Enjoy! 🌵🌵🌵💕😀
That’s why I like this company. I usually don’t have time to repot right away when I buy a plant. So receiving them in a pot is convenient for me. 😉 Thanks for the birthday greetings. ☺️
Happy Birthday, Ana. Self gifts are so nice, you get to choose what you really want. I've never heard of that mail order, but being new to collecting plants and cacti, that's no surprise. I checked the Star Nursery near to me, they had nothing new except some house plants, mainly pothos & other varieties you see in the big box stores. So disappointed. I'll check out the mail order cactus site. Can't wait for an update on the blooms on your birthday cacti, that white one was lovely! Cheers & coffee.
Joan Clarke thanks for the birthday greeting. Hopefully by spring, Star Nursery or the other big box stores will have new plant deliveries. The only thing is there is no grower of cactus and succulents here in Vegas that I know of. They mostly come from California!
@@CactusCaffeine Have you been to Cactus Joe's out on 12740 Blue Diamond Road? He's been there for many years. I haven't been out there in at least 30 years! He's still in business though.
Yes I go there once a year. It’s a little far and in the middle of nowhere. 😉 I get scared driving by myself so I go when somebody is with me. I did not know that they have been there for 30 years! 😱
Cactus Caffeine...Ana ive been viewing your videos as much as i can and lucky me i already have your latest collections since 2019 and really happy for those beautiful blooms. I'm positive our co-collectors will enjoy your videos🌵🏵🌸🌼🌵
Hi Ana, and I join the other viewers in wishing you a belated Happy Birthday,🌵🎉🎊 and a hearty congratulations on your self gift,🌵🌼 mail order, cactus haul! It looks like you're going to be happy with each one. I love the way you video and share with us, your journey with your cactus and succulents! You do a wonderful job with the camera and you are so careful with each plant, your love of plants really shines. I have wondered why you seem to favor the cactus so much, and now it makes sense...of course it's the beautiful flowers! I prefer the succulents, because they don't bite me when I am trying to handle them. I have had to pick out too many spines, when I got too close or my hand slipped. You seem to be an expert at keeping the proper distance! Maybe I will just admire your cactus for now! Cheers! 🌵☕☕🌸🌵🌼
Joyce, thank you for the birthday greeting! Yes, the flowers got me into cactus, not to mention they thrive with neglect, too. Lol! Succulents are beautiful. I tried them many times but my desert weather is just not suited for them. But I kept my aloes and haworthias. Do you have haworthias? They are great even for indoors! 🙂🌵☕️
@@CactusCaffeine Hi Ana. So far, I only have the two tiny haworthias I placed in the aquarium (they look like aloes with whit spots.) Thank you for letting me know haworthias do well indoors. I keep learning more from you! I watched a RU-vid video last night, showing many varieties of haworthias, and now I want to find different varieties. I am keeping my eye on these 2, and I may have to take them out of the aquarium and put them in their own pot, if they don't like it where they are. My aloes outside are in bloom now, and they are multiplying like crazy. We received some rain for 3 days (a little over an inch, total), and I even allowed the aquarium to catch some of the rain water, and all the plants perked up, even the Calico Kittens have put out new leaves on all their tips, and the little plant in the Artketty pot is blooming, now. You have a blessed day! 😊🌵🌼☕☕🌵🌸
Happy belated birthday, dear Ana! 🥳 Aquarian or Piscean? 😊 those are wonderful additions to your babies. My favourite is the bieblii! 😱😍 that is selling for crazy amounts of $ here. Thank you for inserting the flower photos. Daz and I have definitely added some to our wish list. Thank you for sharing, Ana. We both enjoyed watching your unboxing. Take care and keep safe. 🙏❤️🥰😍
Happy belated birthday Ana 😊 Awesome unboxing and wow you chose some real beauties there and they all look very healthy. Love the bieblii as well but as Edith said it’s crazy expensive in SG. All fantastic looking plants Ana, thank you for sharing with us. From Edith & myself, have a wonderful Sunday 😊🌵☀️🌼🌸🏜☕️
Aquarius! Mabuhay Ang mag kulang-kulang. Lol! Thank you for the birthday greeting. Yes, the bieblii is the most expensive in this order but still reasonable, though. Sana mabuhay ko. 🤭😃 Stay safe, too. Wala nang mabiling bigas dito. 😣
Thanks, Daz! I’m excited to see the flowers on these. You know how I like their flowers. Your senilis flower here is beginning to open. I’ll send you a picture
Cactus Caffeine kulang-kulang talaga? 🤣 medyo maselan yan bieblii. Hala! Pati bigas? Tapos na mag-panic mga tao dito. Stable naman ang supplies. Thank goodness! Phase lang yan. Sana matapos na ‘tong crisis na ‘to at nang makapagsimula na mag-rebuild. 🙏💪🥰
If you register your email, they give you a 10% discount initially and you earn points for every order! Thank you for the birthday greetings. 😃 And visit Star Nursery, they just got new deliveries and free tomato plant this weekend only!
Could you please dedicate an episode on how you group your cacti together for maximum aesthetic beauty ? And also which look best together when in bloom. Much appreciated!
That's pretty cool. It's already blooming coming out of the box! Listened to most of it in background but always full play! We are in 30 day lockdown with CURFEW in Manila. Nice excitement for you! Take good care Ana!🌵☕🍺🌵
Tropical Tim In the Philippines I appreciate you Tim. I heard about the curfew and the lockdown. That has never happened the entire time I lived there. We were supposed to go home this year but cancelled. 😔 Grocery stores here are empty with basic food and essentials. I have never seen Walmart shelves empty! Long line at the parking lot just to get inside an empty Costco, too. You take care over there.
So educational as usual! I have my list growing of cactus i'm going to buy. FYI the 2nd Solcorobutia you opened is going to have a pink flower, I googled it.
Yes, family owned! I had the pleasure of meeting them. Here is a video a made about Planet Desert. 🙂 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IEJRoMcoDVk.html
Wow I am impressed with this company. You can see the dedication they give to their plants. I love how well packed they were. Thanks for sharing 😊 Happy B-day. By the way all the plants you sent me rooted🙌🏻😊.
Thank you Emily. Yes, and I got busy and haven’t repotted them still. 😣 Good thing they are in pots when they came. That’s great that the cuttings have rooted! The euphorbia cutting you gave me also feels firm in its pot and has new growth so it must have rooted, too. 🤞
im so jealous of you Anna! you can easily acquire such beautiful and rare cacti...i will not wonder cuz these plants grow in the u.s. as well as it's neighboring countries (where you can get them in the blink of the eye hehe).
Cacti are becoming more popular. Many growers and hybridizers have emerged from different countries. I hope they will soon be more variety available in your country, too. 🙂🌵☕️
A wonderful selection to bring extra happiness on your birthday. 🎁 The Echinocereus pulchellus is on my wishlist. The quality of the shipment is very impressive. I also don’t buy plants often online but I’m definitely going to check out Planet Desert. Thanks.
I like their website. Has some info and lots of pictures. Every time I browse, I always want something. 😁 So I only check their site when I know that I will really make a purchase. 😆Hope you get an Echinocereus pulchellus for yourself! 👍🏼
Happy Very Belated Birthdays! I just experienced my 1st Planet Desert unboxing and they absolutely pack and grow a quality product. Like you, love a flowering globulars, and of course coffee. Question - I like like to repot into my own soil too, but for plants like these in the video, what size terracotta pots do you typically find fit best? 4”?
Aww they are lovely. I did not know it was your birthday. Great choices. I have been happy with everything I got from them. I'd like to see you repot at least one so we can see if it is soil or rocks all the way down that they send. I see you've been hit by the Tyler scammer robot. I posted a video warning about him. Best to block and delete.
I will see if I can. Lots of non-ordinary things happening lately that I can’t spend as much time as I want in my backyard. They are all still untouched in the pots that they came in. And I got them 2 weeks ago now. 😔 Thanks for the heads up on that scammer. 👍🏼
@@CactusCaffeine i recant that. I called and spoke to them and they were having site issues. I am able to get them here in North Dakota! Thank you Ana for sharing this wonderful business with us ♥️
