This Oceanside install was done years ago! We have not needed to come and maintain it one time until now. We did not have one casualty and everything is thriving! We couldn’t be happier!
Anyone else wishing to watch the plants actually being cut up, dug up, surface scratched with the multi tool and plants being reset. I been missing those videos😁
That yard is so healthy and colorful! Thank you for repeating the names of the plants. I’m slowly learning the names of my succulents. I love the orange California Sunsets!
I learned to 'stage' broken pots from you, Laura, although I also do a lot of re-gluing, if possible. The re-staging has saved me a lot of tears when one of my favorites breaks. Thanks for this, and many other great tips.
I wish I could plant succulents on the ground, but we have an average of 26 typhoons annually and a very wet monsoon season. But I am upping my game on container planting and following your advice on applying the principles of design on a smaller scale.
The broken terracotta pot reminds me of your broken Talavera pot which would look amazing... I hope your client gets you to stage a piece because the colour of their bench seat x
Oh my goodness. Love it. I’m fixing to go big on a cacti garden In Loving memory of my precious mom. I’m getting so many ideas with your beautiful landscaping. I just love it all. You’re the best. Thank you for the inspiration. Blessings!
Wonderful video, as usual, Laura! We’re still chilly here, but remaining patient for the sun......only just! Lol! I have most of these specimens but they’re new, so everything is teeny tiny in comparison as well as some being partially crispy due to the winter winds........isn’t gardening great? You get pushed back down every now and then but hope prevails! What a good owner here.......I’d put in a Talavera something to echo the bench, but it’s really perfect now. Congratulations on the heart foundation $1000! Love xx
Good morning 🌞 Laura! I am truly in love with all your work with sacculent and cactus 🌵 I have see all your videos of the work you have done in San Diego, CA. My name is Carolina and I lived in Stockton, California. I have a few questions, can I plant sacculent and cactus in the ground in September and what sacculent and cactus I could use?
I love the steps that go over the dry stream bed. Wow the pedolampus macro carpus came out looking really good (before: 3:39 and after: 13:47). I wish I could've seen how you take out the barrel cactus. haha
Have you ever thought about going to one of your nurseries where you get your plants from? That way, perhaps we can see more of these awesome plants plus maybe get some tips from the growers themselves also?
Looks amazing! I'll take some cuttings lol everytime I see you go thru your aeoniums I gasp!! im out east :). Just Kidding it's beautiful love yalls work it always turns out amazing!!
No one knows exactly what inspires a plant to crest. Basically is a selective cell mutation that causes a distortion in the growth/shape of the trunk and leaves. It’s a very interesting anomaly much like the development of cranunculations on an echeveria.
Crassula ovata. 'argentea' is synonym but argentea indicates silveryness, and we don't want to 'confuse' with Crassula arborescens, i.e. silver dollar jade.
Laura, there seems to be a lot of shade in different areas of this client’s yard. Can you please name some good succs for shady areas? (Other than bromeliads.)
Just wondering why you didn't cut the echevaria sea dragon's stem and reset it like you've done with other echevarias? It left a big long stem which I know you normally do not like to see.
It’s worked so hard to get to where it is (sitting on those rocks in the sunshine) that I didn’t have the heart to disturb it❤️ Not a design decision, but an emotional one😊
Ohhh goodness I think mine is dead 💀 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤣 if I trim it is there a chance I can save it ? I live in south Louisiana and my sticks on fire was about 5 ft before the crazy winter weather hit. The whole plant is brown 🥶
