The garden is going so fast I can’t believe how much time has passed and how much growth has been going on! I’m loving every new thing that you show us!😍
Love all your videos and seeing everything you’ve done in your new garden ❤ Just came to lovingly offer a word of caution against announcing vacay plans in public in real time, though. 😬
I think that the lithops definingly deserve their own little display!! Since the front is so sparingly planted (I do like that), and they are prone to burning, maybe they should go in the front. They would look lovely!
Random 2 cents: You won’t be able to separate the cactus from the grafted host - it’s living off the host now. Mine all died when I tried to separate or bury the host. The living stones are very sensitive to moisture, so keep that in mind if/when you transplant it. The column cacti in the front: I know they prefer sun, but a lot of office buildings here in Phoenix grow them indoors. Guess that’s it. Everything’s looking gorgeous! P.S. I like the chair where it is - it goes with the orange thingy. Have a fun road trip to Palm Springs!!!
everything looks so good! i bet Greg could build a little 3-sided box to hide those sprinkler valves in the front and voilà! a plant shelf 😊 Bentley looks good, too.. so happy he’s settled in… enjoy Palm Springs! sounds fun!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Yay! I’m in New Jersey and I have so much work to do before winter hits. This week we are already dipping into low 50s. My succulents have been living the cool weather at night the colors they have been turning is crazy. So glad to see you are getting so many things done little by little it will come together. It’s definitely a labor of love.
I removed a colourful moon cactus from a graft and it survived for a while, then it rotted. But it grew roots and may have survived had I not popped it into the garden where it received a bunch of rain. I also removed a monkey tail cactus from a graft and it has loved life! Silver dollar vine takes forever to settle in, in my experience. Give it time, if you don’t rot it, it will catch on and explode! Wow, the kaleidoscope looks fabulous now - what a rescue! I have a manga e mission to mark and it’s HUGE! I had to take out an equally huge agave that was living nearby as they were just too much in the area. It is now pride of place in the neighbours front yard. I feel like I’m chatting with you! Thanks for the convo! Enjoy the family time ❤
Soooo jealous of your new totem cactus!!! Had a cactus/succulents pot (Aach pot of course) cake - it featured a totem cactus I want + my blue glow agave. How sweet of Debra! Luv You Bentley ❤
I don't know how things are in the land of milk and honey, but where I live, if I put the succulent chair out in the front it would definitely disappear. I know some people suggested colorful pots and collector specimens on the ledge out front. But anything light enough to carry could be vulnerable. The succulent fountain is heavy so it's safe. As are the cactus for the obvious reason.
Wow, Have a great vacation with the family. I finally made it to San Diego today so sad to hear you are out of town. My Stockton garden is doing well. I added some new rubble last week. I will email you some photos. Have a wonderful time with your family. It’s all about these memories that we make with the littles (and the bigs will not forget either). We just spent a week at Avila Beach and visited the San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden last week. I’ll be visiting Gratz Greenhouses on Friday. I purchased from him 2 years ago and want to switch out a full sun bed southwestern exposure from succulents to cactuses. My aeoniums and crassulas in the full hot Stockton sun just baked. Everything else (my mounds) did extremely well. Again, I’ll send photos. Later gater. Hi Bentley!
LOVE IT ALL! You are so amazing Laura, everything you touch just thrives..... I'm still hopeful one day I can gain enough experience to not kill so many succulents! I live in central Texas and I'm trying! I would love you to show us how you water again and especially watering those 🌵 cactus.
6 weeks already?! How did THAT happen? The attenuata grows so fast- almost a leaf pee week! I really adore the yellow potted plant with the blue rocks. 💙
Everything always look good excited to see you in Palm Springs you all need a break good to see Bentley, such a good dog, my grandson has the same breed of dog too.
I love what u have done! By the way...cherry-lime ade is Sooo good! Maybe a use for the limes. Either cherry flavored drops or actual cherries....many ways to do it.
Moorten Botanical Gardens (& Cactarium) in Palm Springs is definitely worth a visit. The comment I had just added appears to have disappeared--I hope this isn't a duplicate.
I always Google the Fahrenheit celsius conversion when you talk lol!! Much love from Australia. It is already 30 degrees C, 86 Fahrenheit here and its only spring!!
All the limes can be used for water, like you mentioned, but also limeade & add some strawberries 🍓. And the best thing... use them for tacos 😁. Oh a little squeeze in some chicken soup is super good 👌🏼
It is so funny. I was going to ask you if your Lactea crest was grafted and how to take care of the graft. My Lactea crest is granted and I have same questions you have. Can you please review what you learn about Rebutia in a video?
Guacamole uses limes. I also squeeze them over my salads & into salsas. Anything that uses lemons is just as good with limes in my book. Now you can enjoy both. Heres keeping fingers crossed that your oranges turn out tasty too. Garden looks great. Another heat wave coming next week though.
Laura did the tall “booby cactus” that you had at the old place from Susan Aach die in the move? It was majestic! I just scrubbed through the video and couldn’t see it! Everything looks awesome I’m so impressed how much everything has grown in only 6 weeks!
Laura, what was it that helped your lemon tree turn the corner and improve?I know you tried several things but I believe you mentioned what seemed to really make the difference.
If you have time, make a side trip to Joshua Tree National Park from Palm Springs. You will love these unique succulents. Maybe you can use one in a future design.
Everything is looking good. I think the succulent chair just needs to be painted like you did with the table in order for it to pop. Maybe a turquoise color?
Sometimes a little is a lot ( around the Fountain) with the rock it’s going to look beautiful 😍❤️🌵Laura I don’t know how to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius but our smart phone does look on your weather app and it will tell you ha ha
Lookin good! BTW, they are not all lithops there, you also have pleiospilos which has slightly different needs. Personally, I would never plant either of those in soil, 10% organic max plus they have quite long roots. Edited to say....... that grafted cactus need to stay grafted to survive I believe 👍
Hi Laura I must hand it to you on how polite you are with people and there sensitive opinions about your verbiage. 🤯🤯 next thing you know someone will comment that they get offended by you saying “ bye guys” and not gals in the end of your video 😂😂 have a safe trip and thanks for all your videos!
What you call lithops are not all lithops. Two are pleiospilos nellii. They have slightly different care than your one lithops. The purple one is called Royal flush. I love them! I love how the garden is looking. I have a giant plastic rock that covers my sprinkler valves. I want to send a picture of how it looks but your Instagram won’t let me leave a message.how is the E. obesa doing? I didn’t see it. I can’t believe how the mangave kaleidoscope looks. Amazing. ❤
Becareful with lithops in the winter if you put them in the ground. They don’t like winter water. Maybe make a pit with pure pumice so water can drain out fast.
You know I’m so dumb, I just realized 0° Celsius is the same as our freezing point, 32° F. So what that means…wait for it…Celsius more or less begins at our freezing point! 😬🤯🤯🤯 Mind blown. Conversely, if you had an outdoor temp of 32° C, it’s more like.. a really hot day in San Diego. 85-90° F, I believe. An easy way of figuring it out is, for example, take 70°F. Subtract 30 to get 40. Divide by 2 to get 20. It’s not an exact equation but 20°C is more or less, 70°F.
In my experience, grafted cactus are finicky. Out of the 3 I de-grafted, 1 survived and thrived, the other 2 gave up the ghost fairly soon. I suggest separating some of the babies before de-grafting, like that if it dies you still have the babies you can grow. But I'm in no way an expert.
STOP THE PRESSES! Wait... what? Different sunlight exposure will change the direction of the spiral on a spiral cactus? Do tell! Must know more! Mama Laura, can you expand on this?
In South Africa we have degrees Celsius - Google has a fantastic conversion of all sorts of things, including Fahrenheit to Celsius 🧐 so no Laura, you don’t have to do the conversion
You use a word that closed caption calls “edulate”. We struggled to Google the actual eord and came up with “etiolate ”, is this correct? Sometimes you gotta ‘splain like we’re a 5-yr old 😋!
It is not snarky to state a preference. Please don't apologize. It wouldn't matter if you were a novice who didn't like a plant, or the genius designer that you are. We don't even have to agree on anything at all; I admire you, not for your opinion, but for simply you. We should all start from respect and appreciate our differences.
I think I'd be getting rid of that monstrous philodendron (or whatever) if I was the owners. It's probably growing under the house and wrecking the foundations.
I would be happy for such a split leave - but one‘s man meat is another man‘s poison 😁🌵🤔🪴 but I like your approach to the existing plant in your front garden. Sometimes you have to make peace with some circumstances. BUT if you don’t like a plant (after some inner consideration), get rid of it.
Garden looks lovely overall and to think, 6 weeks have passed already! Your lemon tree has made progress but leaves curling under show it needs more attention-especially deep watering once per week or 2x if really windy or hot, The sun and wind for a citrus in a pot require more water. Here’s news from a website: Lemon tree leaves curl because: Watering too lightly. Lemon trees prefer the top two inches of the soil to dry out between bouts of watering, followed by a generous soak, around once per week. If the lemon tree is watered too lightly the water does not infiltrate the soil and reach the roots which causes the leaves to curl. Water your lemon tree and enjoy Palm Springs with your family!❤😊
Dawn Laura is right. I’m old enough to remember when Americans had the chance to change and we didn’t so do your homework and find out why. You know you can google almost anything and get the answer love Laura she makes me laugh and smile any the same time😊❤❤❤

You have been instrumental in my learning a few of the names, thank you for educating me. You are really an incredible fun gal to watch!
Everything looks so beautiful! Thank you for inspiring me. 💚💚💚
9:19 this is such a beautiful grouping. I thorough enjoy seeing your art work thanks
I just loved that you called it the big ugly 🤣🤣🤣 and oh my goodness what is going on over there. The planes and sirens 😮
Amazing what the mic filters out, isn’t it😂
Soooo jealous of your new totem cactus!!! Had a cactus/succulents pot (Aach pot of course) cake - it featured a totem cactus I want + my blue glow agave. How sweet of Debra! Luv You Bentley ❤
I just love the backyard and what you have done.
The green rock really is so cool looking in a succulent garden. It makes it look even more like an art piece.
I don't know how things are in the land of milk and honey, but where I live, if I put the succulent chair out in the front it would definitely disappear. I know some people suggested colorful pots and collector specimens on the ledge out front. But anything light enough to carry could be vulnerable. The succulent fountain is heavy so it's safe.

You know what would be fun! For the hubby to do walk about Wednesday this week to see how he sees your garden ❤
6 weeks already?! How did THAT happen?
The attenuata grows so fast- almost a leaf pee week! I really adore the yellow potted plant with the blue rocks. 💙
Ha! Palm Springs here - the weather is going to be about as good as it gets! Enjoy :)
That plant that resurrected from the death is so beautiful and throwing up some babies ❤
OMG, LOVE your Mushroom Talavera!
Oh! The succulent chair over the irrigation valves in the front? Could it just sit over it as camouflage?
I thought the same thing and wondered if the legs would fit over it.
Everything always look good excited to see you in Palm Springs you all need a break good to see Bentley, such a good dog, my grandson has the same breed of dog too.
Yes, graft may be removed from it's host successfully. Scab the removed graft well before planting it though.
Thank you!!!

Alive and well and staged on the “beach”
Laura, what was it that helped your lemon tree turn the corner and improve?I know you tried several things but I believe you mentioned what seemed to really make the difference.
Espoma citrustone for the W!
Healthy dose of Epsom salts helped green up the leaves, too😊
lol I loved the name big ugly! and it was appropriate:)
If you have time, make a side trip to Joshua Tree National Park from Palm Springs. You will love these unique succulents. Maybe you can use one in a future design.

We can’t wait to crash the Palm Springs trip 😈
Laura, have you been to the Living Desert in Palm Desert? Lots of plants and animals.
I think your face pot in your door entrance would look better somewhere else. It hides the pretty tall pot behind it🌸
Lookin good! BTW, they are not all lithops there, you also have pleiospilos which has slightly different needs. Personally, I would never plant either of those in soil, 10% organic max plus they have quite long roots.

Obesa….🤔
Out of pure curiosity, what is the significance of Onomea st to you?
95 Fahrenheit is 35 Celsius. 100 Farenheit is 37.7 Celsius. 102 Farenheit is 38.8 Celsius. 105 Farenheit is 40.5 Celsius.
Maybe you could do a garden tour of a Pasadena viewer?! 😮😮😮
Becareful with lithops in the winter if you put them in the ground. They don’t like winter water. Maybe make a pit with pure pumice so water can drain out fast.
Wow, my lithops must have got burned. When I first saw it I thought a bird took some bites out of it so I tucked it out of the sun!
1st day of Fall tomorrow... 22nd September, 2022
yes you can remove the cactus from the graft! A lot of times the graft rots and the cacti on top survive🤪
💚💚💚
Laura, are you not using Wet Look 2000 in your work anymore?
Hey, I love pepper trees. Lol
My golden barrel has been in full shade for 3 years
How about spray painting that red planter in the shaded garden?
You know I’m so dumb, I just realized 0° Celsius is the same as our freezing point, 32° F. So what that means…wait for it…Celsius more or less begins at our freezing point! 😬🤯🤯🤯 Mind blown.

Hurray for Bentley!
After removing the catus from the graft let the wound heel
Can you show the bougainvillea once?
Show me more! Please💚
Lemons turn yellow due to temperature not ripeness
Yes. But they aren’t “ripe” until they’re yellow, right?
@@LauraEubanks no they only turn yellow when it starts getting cold the colour has nothing to do with ripeness
🤯 so, if I pick and slice a green lemon, it will taste like a lemon? Mine are large, but green.
@@cherylm1227 as long as the skin is glossy yes it will i

How about some sticks on fire near the fountain in the front? To add some colour and some height.
