Great looking bed. Opuntia polyacantha, Opuntia engelmanii, Opuntia fragilis and Opuntia polyacantha x fragilis 'Smithwick' also grow really well for me. The one you forgot the name of is the Echeveria imbricata, commonly sold at B&Q in the outdoor section. Would definitely call Washingtonia filifera an arid plant since it grows in deserts in nature, even the robusta is from semi-arid and dry Mediterranean regions. Yucca filamentosa isn't a desert species though so maybe would do better if you moved it to another part of your garden if it's struggling

How long from seed to harvest if you want to consume them?

We have made an arrid bed do you not put any soil round the plants? We have put a torbay palm in our bed but put it in an open tub with soil

I definitely feel inpired to grow some arid plants after watching this😊

How in the HELL did you get them so CHEAP!!!??? Omg

Thank you!

The arid bed is looking really class mate. Full marks from me 👏👍

Personally I love the filibuster and think it fits in well in the arid bed. I hope it gets through winter without spear pulling this time!

This Video has way to few views. Thats really cool

Here in Ecuador the gunnera tinctura grows everywhere in the ditches. The veins are so red. I picked a 30 pound flower spike and spread the seeds along my river.

Natural is WAY better and hea5looking. So sad

holy crap 6 months is crazy lol

how do you water it without the sand/soil spilling off?

I love the idea of having the thermostat. We’re trying to figure out how to heat our greenhouse too. I’m starting to think it’s impossible. Winter can drop to -40c here. 12x12x8 with a 12/12 pitch roof. Our friend got carried away I think. All good ideas for sure. I am putting in 4-5 barrels of water at the north wall; heaters, extra poly. Next year, we will have a better system. Thanks for sharing yours. ❤️🇨🇦

woaah...Those very old aztekium, strombocactus and ariocarpus...its like forever to grown those species and all are seed grown!!

Loved the tour. Hard-grown cacti. Harsh climate indeed there. Bloody lovely sunshine in January there though. Beats UK winters hands down 🤣

So beautiful🎉

can I ask where you bought ur specimen? alco something from the uk!

How long does it take for them to become ready to consume?

Your garden is looking great! Yes, I would expect your cordyline to gain at least one additional growth point. Tom

You could see all that everywhere in Arizona.

Had the pleasure of visiting it

Hello, thank for the video. I was wondering if the same process could be applied to the Dendroseris pruinata? Thanks in advance!

Best place to get seeds?

Pollinate then what? How the hell do you get an offspring off the fucking main one? No one seems to fucking simply do Laymans terms!

Nice

Please try a FELCO 2 and come back. :)

I've been sick for 15 yrs, Doctors cant find out why, So I'm looking for alternative ways of helping myself, I watched a Documentary and it mentioned Peyote may be able to help. I live in South Carolina so it doesnt just grow here but I'm serious about trying this to see if I can heal myself, Where and how do I know if I'm getting the right seed for Peyote? Any help on where I can get seeds from would be much appreciated.

Pouched cactus

Hi

Have look at foras if you want something different to view

Nice to see what can be achieved up in God’s own country. Couldn’t help noticing your bag of Desert Substrate. I’ve experimented with this product this year. I’m still unsure, I’ve created some “habitat” pots that have done ok with it & others where I’ve had to remove it. What are your thoughts? I think it’s been better where I’ve mixed it with very chunky stone chippings. Ta

Agree with u on the washingtonia robusta, not had a great deal of luck with them do fine during summer here on the west coast of Scotland, but not so good if u get a really harsh winter! Dont get me wrong if they do get fried with the cold, if they've still got a bit of green in the growing point they will push out new growth rapidly once temps warm up! 🚀 just went and bought approximately a 5ft one from B&M was originally £50 but priced down to a tenner as a few dead fronds on it, plenty of green in centre & really just needed repotted! So result 😁🤞

I agree the damage to the Opuntia is from slugs or snails. They love soft new pads. As far as your Y rostrata, it looks in very poor shape. The central growing point should be producing all blue new leaves. These are very adaptable and do not need a pure gravel growing medium. I hope that its roots are able to reach the native soil underneath. These, as well as the agaves come from areas that experience summer monsoons. So they do best with water in summer and it helps their growth. I would leave it alone and make sure it gets some water. Good luck.

Great looking tour. Superb job 👏👏

Hello - Really love your garden. Is there any reason why your cascade is not running? Would love to see the jungle stream and water fall in action one day 🙂

Slug damage

Nice 👍

Looking better and better every video

I've just measured mine and they are 13 feet plus. It's a group of six, one flowering. I'm by the sea in south wales and don't protect them at all. I find that the big stems can survive really low temperature, so once they get to a certain size they are bomb-roof.

Hi there, I love this and would love to try and recreate it myself. Is this one piece of rock or multiple stuck together? If so, how did you stick them together 😊

🇧🇷🌵🌴☀️

I got rid of the greenhouse and just use a couple of coldframes. I close them down and throw an old duvet over in the evening

Actually only northern varieties can self fertilize. All the southern and northern varieties very close to the southern varieties can’t self pollinate.

They've been growing at Caerhays Estate for a hundred years and haven't spread at all. It's all bullshit.

It's not illegal if you already have them planted in the ground.

Do you have drainage holes in the container for the seedlings?

Add some miracle grow.

Great information. I’ll see how I can incorporate in my Zone 9B Houston garden. Happy gardening.

Love the vid and your garden but PLEASE remove the plinky plonky music it's annoying and makes it hard to hear you thanks
