I’ve watched this video a million time 😍😍😍 I just love it. I’ve searched high and low for Fred Ives and still can’t get my hands on any so I just watch you over and over work with them and it brings me joy 🥰🙌🏽
Lovely video Laura. I like how you give us permission to just do half an hour! It's so easy to think that you need to spend the entire day in the garden (not that "that" would be hard). Bliss.
I just love your videos Laura you have taught me so much omg I was bad at gardening even succulents died under my care 🙈🙈 now I give people an arrangement made by me 😁
I've noticed people in my neighborhood trying to start a succulent garden. What I did is took a huge bag of cuttings and plants and left them at their door. I'm sure it will help them have something to do in these self isolation times
*BOOP* Hahahahahahahhahahahahahha! No truer words, it really does make you feel so good! Been working everyday doing handy man work at home plus gardening and pot construction and painting and absolutely loving it! Also I use I think to medium sized paint brush to clean up my plants from dirt, bugs and the like. Safer, very satisfying and as you said. Blinders on, it definitely switches off the brain! Love it all! 😘😘😘
Yeah I love the spiders that live in my pots, and I kind of like the look of the webs, sparkling in the wind. I almost consider them my little pets. :) It's also cute as hell when you water and they scurry about the top dressing haha. I used to have a somewhat big mealybug problem last year, but after adding more succulents this spring to the pots, "densing" it up, and also making lots of little crevices with the lava rock top dressing, I hardly see them. The spiders and other predators take care of them for me. ☺️ They don't know it, but I'm very grateful.
Laura I’m obsessed with your show. I have a bunch of SD succulents and they are doing so badly in Las Vegas. I have them in shade with the best diet , in terra cotta... but they are sad little guys.
Well, since you live in my home of Chula Vista your dad must have been my english teacher at Hilltop High School! When I saw your last name.....it made me think of him immediately!
Thanks so much, Laura for all the tips and tricks. I was wondering about the "sticks on fire" bush why not just trim it back instead of removing the whole bush? I really enjoy your videos.
I have a question about watering cuttings. What do you do when you stick your cuttings in with rooted plants? Example, when you stick them in your rain gutters with rooted plants? I am in Northern California, mid summer temps easily 90+ so I feel badly not watering the rain gutter plants where many the succulents are at many different stages from rooted, barely rooted and just hardened off cuttings. Help
What is that large yellow green aeonium on the ground on your right, behind you. I'm looking for an aeonium that can grow that big and to 3' to 4' in diameter, that looks like that. I got cuttings of the aeoniums you are resetting, but not sure what particular aeonium it is and not sure if it will ever grow stand alone ones 3'-4' wide. Your revisit tour of places you've designed is beautiful (Thousand Oaks). The quick walk thru video does it no justice. An aerial snapshot would greatly help us beginners see how a professional plants and group things. It also help us see the flow and therefore sense more of the serenity feeling, not that your beautiful arrangements isn't doing that already. Those pictures at the end are great. I would like to see more pictures at the end. Maybe an aerial snapshots of small sections. You have opened my eyes to what arranging with succulent can look like.
Hi Laura! As I wait to plant in the cooler fall months...I’d like to get a jump start on preparing my ground layer. What are some things to keep in mind. Do I just build layers with rocks and fill with soil? It’s there more structure that is hidden in the landscape?
Thank You so much!🙏 This was JUST the video I needed right now, as I have so many hanging Aloe Veras and first I tried making it a look, but they kinda wanna fall out of their pots now and don't look healthy so they just make me sad 😅... Now I know what to do with the rest of my day! 😁🌟 Just to be sure: You can do this with indoor succulents as well, right? 😀
Thanks to you again😁🙏 I'm having a bit of trouble getting them to root, but now they all have supporting sticks to prevent them from falling out of their pots every time the soil dries out, until they can hold themselves 😁🍀 I wonder if I should perhaps water a little more, or more frequently until they begin to root..💡
This has not been very succesful.. They don't die out, but many of them haven't rooted, so they keep needing support... Perhaps I should've done it way earlier in the summer when the sun was more present, but hopefully they'll get healthier as spring arrives soon ^^ I've tried to water them more often to get them to root, but it just made them stretchy so fast, so had go quit that technique 🙈
I have several succulents I have planted out side and I want to put more outside. I live in Wisconsin and it gets really cold here. The ones I have put outside have lived wonderfully for years and want to put more outside and not sure what ones will last outside. Can you recommend any ones that will last
Dear Laura, I am Indian and live in Delhi. Can you help me to suggest from where I can receive the or baby plantall these lovely succulents you have for propogation.
But don't you hate mosquitos and flies even more? Take spiders as your bugcatchers 😁 I rarely remove the webs around my windows because I experience way less bugs inside when I let the spiders stay and feast 😊 I wonder if they eat spidermites or other evil, planteating bugs as well. That would be pretty genius 😀 I know ladybugs can get rid of them, but I just don't feel like they ever want to live inside..😅
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing succulents lovely collection beautiful garden

Catherine Sot yikes! That’s a challenge!
Mist gently through the hotter months and keep your plants as cool as possible😊

Did you drill holes in your fountain for drainage? If so how large a diameter are they?
Pety Shaw yes. 1/2 inch😊

Wow
I live in Chula vista if ever u throw away succulents please let me know i would love to get them.:)
How do you avoid root rot without air drying? Not watering is fine?
👍
Any tips for that im from phillippines💕
Dear Laura, I am Indian and live in Delhi. Can you help me to suggest from where I can receive the or baby plantall these lovely succulents you have for propogation.
Hi Laura, can I come to ask for some succulents that you threw away
I live in Rancho Bernardo very close to La Jolla . Can I empty your yard waste bin for you
Dear Laura, do you e er work w wet moss to mold it into an object, and if so, how do you do so?
PS thank you for all your inspiration. I love it every day. I learn from your videos every day. 🥰❤️🥰
👋😀
and where are you and bently right now?psnt that your garden you are in with bently?
👍👍👍
succulent dog
What zone are you gardening in?
But I have arachnophobia and I do not like spiders
But don't you hate mosquitos and flies even more? Take spiders as your bugcatchers 😁
I rarely remove the webs around my windows because I experience way less bugs inside when I let the spiders stay and feast 😊
I wonder if they eat spidermites or other evil, planteating bugs as well. That would be pretty genius 😀
I know ladybugs can get rid of them, but I just don't feel like they ever want to live inside..😅
Hello beautieul ...😘🇵🇹
You should sell me them stems lol
Spiders don’t bother me, but snails are the devil. 👿🐌👩🏼🌾 I pick them up, put them in a can or baggy (😖) and toss in the trash. Yuck.
I want to savage all those mother plants
I thought she's an old man
