If you don’t have a pair of nippers on your belt then you are just playing around. It’s well worth big bucks to have a reliable, sharp pair on your belt at all times. I had to save up to buy a nice pair, the ones I carried for years are just too heavy!
Wow, he really knows his stuff! So so very impressed! And he just picks them up and throws them like he know what he’s doing, which he totally does. So impressed! And what a huge scale he is dealing with, awesomeness. Thanks for going way beyond and taking us on this ride, blessings
@@passionfruiter3184 the farmer was trying to give us much more information than what was being able to be expressed. He was constantly being derailed in the middle of saying something
WOW... This gentleman knows his succulents! Would love to see more videos of him discussing in details the do's & don't of caring for succulents (especially indoors). 🌵🌵👍👍
I have to say, that tour of the succulent greenhouse was absolutely amazing. Dylan definitely knows his product. I would certainly support this green house--if it wasn't 1,030 miles from where I live. Thanks for setting that up, Kevin. Darryl
That man is everything I aspire to be in my life. He is incredibly knowledgeable!!! I wish I had even a 1/4 of that knowledge. Oh my plants would love me so much more ha ha ha
The way he was just roughly picking them up and throwing them back in the tray like a any old rock , while the guest gently picks one up , admires it, gently lays it back down. Epic gardening was the true suc God right there.
Yeah instead of showing the guys, no offense, zoom in on each of the 100s of damn plant babies there! Guys are handsome but let's face it, we're here for the succs! 😉😎🤣
@heatherkoolaid yup, I feel like I got to watch a couple of guys talk. I didn't even get to see the plants that were supposed to be beautiful. Waist of my time.
one thing i noticed is that my succulents love a mix of compost or potting soil and medium to small gravel bits, with coarser gravel in the bottom, my burrows tail is doing awesome in that mix and i have a baby rubber tree in the same mix and theyre both really happy
That’s what I was thinking as well, every time he grabbed a container full of succulent cuttings. A succulent grower (especially a plant expert) already knows how to handle his or her babies properly. Primarily, these plants have very plumpy and juicy leaves and stem that are prone to bruising or even breakage. Once bruised, they will bear it their whole life.
I love succulents, but do NOT find them easy. I've lived in Massachusetts and in the high desert of New Mexico, and I have never been able to get the light right for a lot of them.
I just came to say I dig your shirt at the beginning. Also great video it got saved in a couple of my Playlists. Always enjoy your channel and the people you pick to feature. Thank you
I think this channel is shaping up to be one of the best. However I live in the subtropics. I would love some information on how to grow succulents in different climates.
Plants are fascinating, truly living creatures with different nutrient needs. It's cool to learn where they come from and how to take care of them. I mean what would we do without our succulents?!
I agree 💯% that the blooms are beautiful. I do have a love/hate relationship with them. They take a lot of energy away from the succulents and can also misshapen a perfect rosette. If their not misshapening my rosette I'll let them grow a little stem and then cut them. Place them in water and watch them blossom.
Great Video, I’m new to succulents I’m not used to seeing compost dry so worry that they are not getting enough water and have lost a few due to overwatering. I’m fascinated with you knowing all the names I’m still learning. Thankyou Sue UK
Mix some extra grit and bark in with that compost and you'll be all set. As I'm in the desert, with under 10% humidity, I can do straight compost, but on your rainy island, lightening up the mix will help prevent over watering.
This was such a cool video! I loved it! Thank you so taking us behind the scenes! I'd be curious to know what kind of succulents he has in his own personal home??
Thanks for watching! Kevin is right I spend A LOT of time in these houses, they make my G-house at home look like a closet! I do have a “wife troubling” amount of plants though. My favorites are Haworthia and Euphorbia. Keep planting!
I love my succulents. They handle drought well and propagate easy. And they come in a wonderful variety of sizes and colors. What's not to like? I make sure to water the area where I'll be putting offshoots. No problems so far after several years.
I find that succulents have quite a bit of personality, some are super sensitive and touchy, some are stubborn ,some are flamboyant, some of them have many demands or even demand attention , they tell you everything you must do and if you don't do it right, they for sure show u
O must say, I am not an original lover of succulents, even though I'm planning to homestead in west West Texas High Desert, lol! But, between you and Summer Rayne I have decided to give it a go, I have found a few that I like......I just need to read up more on identifying and care a little more. Great video, thank you!
Can you do a video on grow lights? I used to think it was as simple as going out, buying one, and then putting it over your plants but I'm learning that is not the case and I know I'm gonna need a good grow light for my lemon tree over the winter.
New to the channel. Thanks for sharing the awesome video . The interviewee was so knowledgeable and passionate about what he does understandably why. I live in NC I started my interest for succulents, cactus, air plants & orchids working in the lowes garden center for years. Amazing plants what's not to love.
Great video so many are in the family 'I WANT EM' 😂 love to see a part 2 to this ( people are often surprised when you let them know of the many Winter-hardy varieties of succulents) Please more videos with growers or specialist or Botanical gardens or styles of gardens and gardening...... basically more plants😂😂Orchids cal orchids Los Osos Ca, Nuccios Camellias and Azaleas Altadena Calif great people & growers or Natives Sons for California natives or fort bragg's Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens so I have something to watch with my tea THANK YOU ;)
So glad I clicked on this video! I love succulents, but again, my lack of a green thumb gets in the way. So give them sun, but not too much direct sun, and do not over water. Got it. I loved the advice on half cactus mix with half potting soil. Will do that now. Funny enough, most of my plants died last year due to white flies, over watering, over fertilizing, etc. But the kolancho, that sucker keeps chugging along! It was the only plant to survive under any condition it was put to! It sat in a place with lots of sun and was over watered like my other plants, but the sucker thrived. I brought it inside for the winter and it started growing, flowering, and putting out air roots! My type of plant. LOL
He handles then rough because he knows they can handle it. Can you imagine how long it would take him of he cradled every cutting he inspected ? Just a thought 😊
Rosa Padilla I have a few old garden tours on my channel but you would have to dig. I’m not sure I could promote my channel on someone else’s channel , lol. Maybe over the summer, I’ll make some garden ones:)
Lol everyone chill. Yes, he's obviously gonna handle his plants slightly rougher than a private grower who's got a lot more to lose if that one plant is bruised, but the way you guys are reacting it's like you think these plants are made of glass. You can grab and lightly throw plants without hurting them, I promise.
What succulent topics should I make a video on next?
The difference between over watering, underwatering, and nutrient deficiency( signs to fertilise)
HEWfunkingKNEWit yes! I second this. These are all great topics I wonder about myself
propagation by individual leaves
The care for succulents that are considered hardy vs. non hardy succulents
Rose of the dessert care.
You know he's a pro because he has a holster on his belt for the clippers.
Locked and loaded
Yo i saw that . Where do I get one ?! Haha
Actually we do that to avoid putting them in our back pocket
If you don’t have a pair of nippers on your belt then you are just playing around.
It’s well worth big bucks to have a reliable, sharp pair on your belt at all times.

I’d love to see more episodes at this nursery and with this grower. Maybe a start to finish process? This is so fascinating!!
I'll be up there again soon!
Agreed, this was fascinating.
I agree more information on this topic would be great
I would love that also. I love learning all there is to know about plants. Especially house plants
@@passionfruiter3184 the farmer was trying to give us much more information than what was being able to be expressed. He was constantly being derailed in the middle of saying something
He is beyond our level, I never hold or touch my succulents like that lmao
ha ha it made me cringe a little :)
Straight up manhandling them, given no damn
I'm surprised every plant he touches isn't dead from how carelessly he touches them
Look at them wrong and they start wilting
Comment il jette les pauvres plantes... Ça se voit que c'est juste commercial...
I love how this nice nursery guy loves what he is doing
i didn’t feel that love you speak of
As a hobbyist this was super fascinating being able to see how it goes on the production side!
WOW... This gentleman knows his succulents! Would love to see more videos of him discussing in details the do's & don't of caring for succulents (especially indoors). 🌵🌵👍👍
I have to say, that tour of the succulent greenhouse was absolutely amazing. Dylan definitely knows his product. I would certainly support this green house--if it wasn't 1,030 miles from where I live.
Thanks for setting that up, Kevin.
Darryl
The stress level is real watching this grower handle these succulents so roughly.... But keep posting more succulent videos please !
Omg the way he man-handles everything 😂 stressing me out beyond belief 😂
yeah man same here. dude doesn’t love them, they’re just a product to him
Yeah I thought he was a bit rough with them too!
Y’all need to chill, the cuttings are fine.
Don’t like him. Not good vibes. Arrogant.
It normally takes at least 30 minutes to replant a succulent, and he is handling it like stones 🙄
That man is everything I aspire to be in my life. He is incredibly knowledgeable!!! I wish I had even a 1/4 of that knowledge. Oh my plants would love me so much more ha ha ha
Propagation tips and tricks would be cool to see
Will add to the list!

The way he was just roughly picking them up and throwing them back in the tray like a any old rock , while the guest gently picks one up , admires it, gently lays it back down. Epic gardening was the true suc God right there.
Did anyone else get super frustrated by the cameraman not doing close ups of the succulents? I mean...you had one thing to film!
Yeah instead of showing the guys, no offense, zoom in on each of the 100s of damn plant babies there! Guys are handsome but let's face it, we're here for the succs! 😉😎🤣
I was a bit frustrated & dizzy from the rapid movement and super fast panning around the tables.
I was asking myself if he wasn’t going to show it or not.
Right!!! You had One Job! One!🤦♀️😤😆😢
@heatherkoolaid yup, I feel like I got to watch a couple of guys talk. I didn't even get to see the plants that were supposed to be beautiful. Waist of my time.
Wow... This nursery is succulent heaven ! Thanks a lot for this video ❤️
Thanks for watching!

Im crazy with Succulents. I just love them , collecting succulents now since 2018
Show us your collection
Please do some more suc care videos. I love them! Love for this guy to teach us more too! Thx!!!!
The succulent God is so rough with his children. They must get so bruised.
They can handle it 😉

Primarily, these plants have very plumpy and juicy leaves and stem that are prone to bruising or even breakage. Once bruised, they will bear it their whole life.
@@romegipulan4644 They actually outgrow those damaged leaves in a couple of seasons, so no worries there...
@@KaleiPlants Yes, they do. But it really takes time, since they are all slow grower plants.
soup42 Well, if you compare their growth to regular houseplants, then their slow growers.
This was very informative. I’ve had succulents for several years and this was a great refresher. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks.
Truly a master. Thanks for having this great guest. I could feel the passion and relate.
Extremely informative! Thank you...Thank You...THANK YOU❣I will be watching repeatedly!
whoaa that is the biggest succulent nursery I ever seen, even bigger the succulent farmer here. thank u for sharing n tips.
That guy had the best job ever! 🙌
Thank you for posting this!! I’m a botany student and I love watching this stuff! 🌱💛 love your videos
Thank you my friend!
A quality operation. It’s kind of crazy how popular succulents have become. It’s also about time, considering how relatively easy they are to grow.
Couldn't agree more with you
I love succulents, but do NOT find them easy. I've lived in Massachusetts and in the high desert of New Mexico, and I have never been able to get the light right for a lot of them.
I just came to say I dig your shirt at the beginning. Also great video it got saved in a couple of my Playlists. Always enjoy your channel and the people you pick to feature. Thank you
When I die scatter my ashes here. Lol
Succulent so easy to care for and so many in variety.....enjoy this video thanks for the visit and the knowledge.
Glad you enjoyed!
I’m a succa for these vids! Yall put the worthy in Haworthia! 🌵
Was anyone else cringing the way he roughly held those plants? I am so careful with mine. I just couldn't get past the roughness.
Yeah, especially when he tossed them back into the pile XD
@@crashharmonyroberson5076 toss? I call it slamdunked the plants :D
thanks. That bothers me too. this and the fact he said " south african sahara" :D
@@Spiritoffire3003 oml...woo and he called the plants MATERIAL ?
First time seeing one of your videos; super informative, well spoken and kept short and sweet. Keep it up!
my dad's helping me build a greenhouse this year and i can't waaaaaiiiiiiit to grow some of these 💚
Here I am thinking I have a great choice of succulents! This is succulent heaven to me 🌱💕💕🌱
Such a great video!! Thanks for going behind the scenes for all of us. I could spend hours there! 🌱❤️
Me too, I could live there!
I'm in love. ❤️
That succulent master is awesome.
Just love my country's lovely flora!!
I think this channel is shaping up to be one of the best. However I live in the subtropics. I would love some information on how to grow succulents in different climates.
Great point, I'll add to list. And thanks for the kind words!
This was very helpful, because i have only begun to add a few succulents recently. I have a senecio that just finished blooming prolifically
Thank you for sharing this video.I enjoyed watching❤️❤️❤️
Great vid man. Straight to the point!
Plants are fascinating, truly living creatures with different nutrient needs. It's cool to learn where they come from and how to take care of them. I mean what would we do without our succulents?!
Wow! You have lots different kids of succulents! That awesome! 🥰
“Do you know the way to San Jose...” nice to know this is in my area! I’m in Morgan Hill, south of SJ 😊
Do u know where is this nursery at?
I’d like to know where this place is too.
I'm a succulent collector and my favorite are echeverias. Fascinating specimens indeed.
This is a really awesome video! Its so beneficial to be learning from a real pro even for a short while/short interview! Amazing!
Very knowledgeable grower. Amazing video, plan to buy from him.
Sunshine potting soil is a good general growing medium; add perlite for additional drainage.
These plants are fascinating I've collected over 50 types some of which are 30+ years old
OMYGOD I would LOVE to work with all of these babies, Heaven!!💖🌵🌵🌵
Indeed!
Masters show respect. He throws the plants every time he takes one. Succulents are like fruits, when hit, they get damage.
I noticed that. He is so rough.
Dylan Toms...where can we hear more from him. Diggin his voice and his botany😁
I agree 💯% that the blooms are beautiful. I do have a love/hate relationship with them. They take a lot of energy away from the succulents and can also misshapen a perfect rosette. If their not misshapening my rosette I'll let them grow a little stem and then cut them. Place them in water and watch them blossom.

What an awesome greenhouse! Love it.
How about a lesson on recognizing Succulent disease, and what to do about it. Thank you from snowy Vancouver, Canada!
Wow, great succulent nursery and helpful tips 👍🏻Many thanks 👏
Hi, like to show you what I have if you got a sec, hit my icon, tks :)

This was a great video full of wonderful, engaging content, but all I can think about is how much I love that t-shirt in the beginning of the video.
This was an awesome video. I just bought several Succs today from home Depot. Im not sure how to care for them. Thank you so much😊

I learned so much from this dude!
Thanks for this video. I am fairly new to gardening. Started with cactus and succulents. It's been a fun learning experience so far.
It's a great place to start!
South Africa represent 🇿🇦
WOW amazing succulent nursery 👏🏼 you said in San Jose, where? Thats my city! 😊
I know! i need to find this place. Let me know if you find out.
that greenhouse is amazing. would love to visit that nursery
Thank you Kevin
Can you make more videos of your nursery I really enjoyed it many thanks
I have owned my chrysula for over 25 years and it’s never flowered yet! Tip on how to encourage it to throw a bloom or two would be great xxx
Cool dry overwintering.
Havein millions of succulent to handle I think this guy is accurate in handling the pots an plants . Waaaw it’s amazing to look at .
O must say, I am not an original lover of succulents, even though I'm planning to homestead in west West Texas High Desert, lol! But, between you and Summer Rayne I have decided to give it a go, I have found a few that I like......I just need to read up more on identifying and care a little more. Great video, thank you!

Just watched this, hope you got some samples! My pockets would be full!
Love your channel! ⭐️

Drooling over here 🤤 I would have maybe, come home with no money and a car full of succis
If I didn't fly there, same thing for me hahaha
Succulents are my newest passion. ❤
Awesome video! I actually grew up with Dylan. Sharp dude for sure.
Wow no way?! Small world
Who dis?!? We grew up together!?
That anarchy T-shirt is FANTASTIC 💕
Nice tips on feeding and watering them.

The succulent God it hot. Just putting that out there.
No he's not. Can't even handle a live plant gently tf.
I really enjoyed this. Mahalo
Best succulent in my collection was hands down the echiveria sanyatwe . Grew like crazy.
He handles then rough because he knows they can handle it. Can you imagine how long it would take him of he cradled every cutting he inspected ? Just a thought 😊
I have a massive succulent garden. They are just so easy :)
Indeed :)
I have some Ocotillo growing you want some
No, I will pass, but thank you for the offer.

Lol everyone chill. Yes, he's obviously gonna handle his plants slightly rougher than a private grower who's got a lot more to lose if that one plant is bruised, but the way you guys are reacting it's like you think these plants are made of glass. You can grab and lightly throw plants without hurting them, I promise.
