- Here is an update on how my cactus and succulents are coping up during the extreme summer heat in the desert of Nevada, USA. My cactus, aloes and haworthia are doing better than my leafy/fleshy succulents and epiphytic cactus. This video will show my potted succulent plants, my mini desert garden, as well as the cacti that I have planted in the ground.

At 6:36, it is a Mammillaria Rhodantha, and not Mamm Celsiana Sorry.
You are covering your cactus with black net. Black colour attracts more heat. So instead of protecting your cactus you are giving them more heat outside in the environment by the net
Thanks for the update. You are such a good cacti mommy. You are fighting sun and heat and I am fighting heat and rain, rain, rain. Keep up the good work.
Jan Alexander thank you! And please send some rain over my place. I am doing the rain dance here. 💃💃💦🌧
Cactus Caffeine , I wish I could send y’all some.
So happy to see new growth on your cactus you moved to your kitchen. Isn't nature magical? It is crazy how well certain plants can recover. Love your aloe collection as well Ana!!
Yeah. I wish I have more space inside my house where I can move many of my plants that need protection. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts. ☕️☕️🙂
WOW your cacti and succulents are incredible Ana :-D such a wonderful update
Four seasons in one hour?! Hahaha. 😄 That is crazy. I admire you for growing desert plants so successfully despite not being in a desert nor having a desert like environment at all. That is truly remarkable! Thanks Lyn for watching and I love your comment. CHEERS! 😊🌵☕️
Awesome cactus collection, all your cacti looks very healthy 👍thanks for sharing 👍👍
San Diego Tropical Garden thank you. 😃🌵🌞
Awesome video👍full watched! great sharing💐always let’s stay connected❤️
Great update! It's interesting seeing how your different cacti are doing. 💚🌵🌞
Hello😄very good👍
Have a happy day
Wow.....great update, my dear Ana. 👍👍 I enjoyed watching all your wonderful collection and listening to you talk. What a lot of work....shifting them around and making temporary shelters. 😔😔 The things one does for the he love of plants. 🥰🥰🥰 Great job, Ana and well done! 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😍😍😍
Hi Molly! Yes, I have to move them around. The sun also shifts so the area that used to be in partial sun, now receives full sun and vise-versa. It is a lot of work, but I enjoy it. 😃
I love the ones with the baby pink bloom.😍 Great job protecting them, my domino looks burnt and probably won’t make it. 😔 You got pretty succulents, it is a lot of work to keep them happy. Thank you for sharing.💝💞🥰😘
Oh, I’m sorry about your domino cactus. They do like some sun protection. Fleshy or leafy succulents don’t do well with me. That’s why I envy your collection! ... I just recently got some aeoniums that I need help with their ID. Uploading the video soon. I hope you can help me with their names. 😉
Lovely collection dear and Cheers!
Hi Lisa, thanks so much. I appreciate it. 😊
Beautiful cactus
fairy garden thank you! 🌵☕️
Hi Ana 🌹
I've been moving my cacti around too! With the heatwave and direct sunlight can stress out some cacti.
Your aloe collection is beautiful!
Great update 🌵
Hola George! The heatwave is stressing me, too. Lol! I can’t wait for fall to begin. Thank you and regards to Francisco as well. 🙂
Beautiful like always
Hi Anna, You have Beautiful collections of cacti and succulents. Yes I notice during The hottest month of the year like August my cacti also experienced sun scorching especially when they are directly expose to the sun with no shade at all. Their skin got wrinkled and shriveled. I just water them at least 3 times in a week and they become plumped again. Thanks for sharing those ideas of covering some temporary shades for the plants.
This summer is brutal. No rain in our area. Three times a week water, yep I believe you. I also do that to some of my cactus and some people are shocked. Lol! Thank you for your wonderful comment. Regards! 🙂🌵☕️
So nice to see your plants Ana and so strange to see that you have the opposite problems compares to us. Rain, gray, wet and rarely warm as it is here. This summer we maybe have had 10 sunny days but the air is chilly. Thank you for sharing, Lyn and l loves it! :-) :-D XD
XXXXX
Hi Hans! It is very interesting. I see your videos and I’m wishing for a weather like yours. While I hear you and Lyn wishing to have a weather like mine! Hahaha. 😁 But amazing how cacti are able to adapt. Big Cheers from Nevada to Ireland! ☕️☕️
Weather effects all gardeners. To be too hot, dry and sunny for cactus is quite a challenge! Cactus in nature often protect themselves from extremes by growing next to , or under shrubs and trees. Some cacti shrink down into the ground to reduce their exposure to the elements. In spite of being tough and adaptable, during severe climatic conditions even mature cactus can be injured and die. ~ One trick I use is to double pot plants that get a lot of direct sun. That is, you place your potted plant inside a slightly larger empty pot. This shades the grow pot and helps keep the roots from overheating. ~ Hopefully cooler weather will come your way soon.
LOVE OF PLANTS 🌻, thank you for the added info. 🙂 That pot trick is very smart. I also am slowly moving away from using plastic pots. Some of them get so hot and I had a couple that even melted! 😔
I hope you have a shade cloth for yourself too in that heat! Wow! Most of your collection still looks good though, to your credit! My jade plant is perking up now that we’ve had one cooler week. Funny how quickly they can turn around as soon as they like the conditions. I hope the heat breaks soon for you and your plants! 🌵🌵🌵☀️
I am wishing for cooler weather, soon. This summer is too long! 😁 I’m glad your jades are doing better. Mine are all indoors. I’m sure your cacti are happy as well. Cheers! 🙂🌵☕️
So beautiful cacti collection!!! Gorgeous garden!!! I guess your house is too beautiful!!! I do transfer my cacti/succulents too depending where the sun shines.. Your follower from the philippines!!!
Hello Maria Isabella! Kamusta po? Thank you for your very flattering comment. ☺️ Tag-ulan diyan sa Philippines ngayon. I hope all your plants are doing good. 🙂🌵☕️
I can’t wait for summer to be over.... So that I can uncover my cuties.... Good job keeping your cacti shaded. 👍💚💚💚😎
I know, right? Can’t display them properly with all the covers in the way. I know it gets hot in your place too in Cali. I hope your garden is doing well. 🙂🌵☕️
Awesome video. I love long Vids. Saying hi from Canada
Thank you! Cheers from Las Vegas. 😊🌵☕️
Thanks for sharing.
You have a lot of Cactus collected. The very hot weather is the one that stops us from moving in Nevada. I’m sure a lot of my succulents will die and that will make unhappy.
Hi. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. The hot temp is just one downside to living here. But I can name a lot more advantages. 😉😃 Have a great cool day!
Wow! You guys are getting so much heat! I can't imagine what it must be like as a human! Your cacti still looks great and they will rebound! Cheers!
Jeanne Cronce thank you. I have been hibernating in an air conditioned house! Amazing how these cacti can take this brutal environmental condition. Thanks for your wonderful comment. Cheers! 😊☕️
Great update tour Ana. Its been hot in the UK again recently but nothing close to those kinds of temperatures, reached 41c in the greenhouse though but only for a short period, and the humidity here is much higher than Nevada. Hopefully your ones with the bad sunburn pull through. Great seeing a new offset forming on your Mexican fence post cactus already 😍 Your desert garden is looking great too. All your succulents, especially the Aloes look fantastic. Thank you for sharing another awesome video with us Ana, have an awesome week 👍🏻🌵☀️🌸☕️
Thank you Daz! 🙂🌵 In case you were looking for the plants you sent, they are all inside by my kitchen window. They might get a shock if I put them outside right now. When fall starts, all of them goes outside. When will you show us your greenhouse? 😉
Oh I wasn’t sure if you had maybe recorded this video before I sent you the plants. But yes I think they’d all scream if you put them out in that sun and heat right away! 😂 The greenhouse and inside tour update will be coming soon, I’ve just got quite a few other videos ready to upload before that, seed sowing, seedling update etc, as well as another unboxing with some real beauties 😉 I’ll show you a sneak peek of them on IG if you want? 🌵☀️🌸
Oh sure! I’d like that. 🙂
I live in Ontario Canada. The summer is hot and the days are long. I keep all my cacti in a greenhouse with the doors open but as you can imagine with our day time temperature of 90 plus degrees the temperature in the greenhouse is over 100 degrees. I've had good luck putting the pots in a deep tray of water every few days and let them soak. They get little shade and are growing strong and fat. No etoliation. Even cactus that are sensitive to too much sun are getting fat and strong.
Wow Bill, that is great! I’m glad your cactus are all doing well. I know you face a different battle when it comes to weather conditions in Canada. Thanks for your wonderful comment. I appreciate the info and learning. 😊 Cheers from USA to Canada! ☕️☕️
Very nice Ana, they look good neverthless. The shade cloth is a good option.They are desert plants but their natural habitat growing in the ground provides more humidity than enclosed in a pot. Still they look fine to me. Aren´t plants awesome? I love the way they adapt.
Thank you Fernanda! You are right, they have amazing adaptation skills. I hope I can adopt as good as they do! LOL! Nice of you to visit me once again, Fernanda and I appreciate your wonderful comment. 😊🌵☕️
Hey Anna, I like that I see u using a shade cloth. We actually purchased one for the greenhouse and put it on but took it back off because of growing tomatoes. I’ve been moving mine around to shady areas of the greenhouse to protect them. I have a 50% shade cloth and I think next year I’ll put it on late April early May and leave it on all summer. Good video, I can’t imagine your heat and we complain about 93.
Yeah. Summer here is brutal. The shade cloth helped a lot as some cacti even started re- blooming as soon as I put them on. It must be hard for you to balance the lighting in your greenhouse as you have a variety of plants growing inside. Good luck! Soon it will be winter and we’ll be complaining about the cold temps. LOL! 😁😉
Love seeing your collection. I have to keep moving mine around as the sun caught some of my euphorbia's, luckily I caught them just in time before to much damage got done, they have just gone a little paler in colour where they started to burn :( Another great video Ana, thank you for sharing 🌵🌵
I bet my Oreocereus trollii would like it there, next to yours which looks so much straighter and stronger than mine… Thanks for another nice video :-)
I love how they look. Spines and wooly hairs. 🙂 Thank you again for watching! 🌵☕️
Up here in Northern Nevada it’s in the 90’s and the cacti, even the yucca are doing very well. The succulents only get a short spell in direct sun, then shade and seem to be doing fine.
I envy your temperature! I would be contented with high 90’s but our temperature has not gone down yet here in Vegas. I’m glad your plants are doing well. Thank you for watching! Cheers from Southern to Northern Nevada! 🙂🌵☕️
Cactus Caffeine 🚴♀️🏔🏌️♀️🧗♀️⛷ Can’t beat it.
Great video!! Loved the tour and seeing how your plants are surviving the hot summer heat. All the flowers are so beautiful!!! 😍❤️🌵
Thank you so much, Natty! 🙂☕️
Hi! Anna I was surprised to see and know that they also needed protection from sun . Hahaha dummy me I thought all this thine they are loving sun plants didn’t realized they needed protection too. Thanks for this new information I learned from you .
By the way you got big beautiful cacti collection. Love it I quite a few that I can handle and now I finally brought them inside since starting to cool here now at night . 😘
Thank you Myra! I’m glad I am able to share my experiences and have people learn from them. I learn a lot from your channel, too especially on house plants. Cheers from Nevada! 😉🌵☕️
Hi name kambal haha 😂 you have a great collection. I've recently restored my mom's old plant stand. I'm currently installing screen net so it can hold smaller pots. I hope I can grow my collection as much as yours 😊
Hello name kambal! 🤣 Good luck on your plants. Next thing you know, your collection has grown!!!
Love your collection sis 😍 I have a few but watching your videos I just realized that I don’t really know them very well 😂 I guess i’m just lucky they’re still alive lol
You have a green thumb! Kaya anything you grow does well. Pati nga gulay, nakakapagtanim ka. 😉 Thanks, sis for stopping by. 🙂
I'm so lucky to have come across your channel! You have a wonderful collection and you're living where I want to be some day! I've been thinking about moving to Laughlin and, of course, bring my cacti and succulents with me, but I apparently have a lot to learn. I'm in CA now where I leave them outside year round...it never entered my mind that I couldn't do that in NV. I also grow orchids and plan to bring those with me as well. Do you still grow any indoors? Mine have always been indoors so I'm thinking I will just have to provide some humidity. I'll be watching a lot of your videos this weekend!
Hello Eileen! Laughlin has similar weather to Vegas. Your cacti will love it but your succulents would have to be protected in summer. I used to grow a few orchids indoors. Sadly, I lost them one by one as we usually take one or several long vacations every year. I had nobody to water them and the dry air even inside the house quickly made them wither. I am happy you enjoyed my video. Pls. keep in touch! 😊🌵☕️
Subrang nakakainget yung mga cactus mu te huhuhu
Aww, Maan, you can do it, too. I just got a lot of practice. 😉 Lots of success and failures. 🙂🌵☕️

Pa hug back ate.
I also have a CZcams channel😘
Ana, you hide your cacti under a shade in summer, i do hide mine in winter, lol😂
Lol! That’s funny. 😄
Hi Ana. I had also some sun burns in my cacti. You done very well protect them. Your collection is amazing. Do you have winter there? How it is?
Hi Olga. Yes, winter here is very cold. We get freezing temperatures as low as 27F. We get snow some days but not everyday. Desert weather is brutal! I’m amazed how these cacti are able to withstand it. 🙂
I lived in Vegas for a year after hurricane Andrew(92) wiped me out in Homestead. So I know what kind of heat you're getting. It can be brutal.
Great collection! What's the name of the red/pink skinned cacti at the beginning of the video? Looks rare. Nice lithops too!
Raiden Uchiha, that js a Rainbow Hedgehog (Echinocereus rigidissimus) cactus. Thank you so much for watching! Cheers! 🌵☕️
😲🥰💓
A quick video! (15:28)🤔
Hahaha. That’s what I thought at the beginning. 😉
Hello from Ken in Japan another great video. Did you want to do a baby cactus and seeds trade. I have many Japanese hybrid cactus
K Titus, Hi Ken, thank you for the offer. But right now my cactus are in no shape to travel. They are all dehydrated as is! 😉 ☕️☕️
One question, do Bunny ear cactus give flowers. Coz I watched many cactus videos,but not see any bunny ear cactus flowers
Lalhmingchhuangi Khawlhring Yes bunny ears cactus or opuntia microdasys produce yellow flowers.
Yes, they do. Here is my video entitled ‘A Simple Desert Garden’, where I had a shot of the Opuntia Bunny Ears with yellow flowers. 🙂

Goodmorning Ana. I'm here in N.J. we went from high 90's to 70's. Humility is still 93 percent. My cactus haven't gone out this summer. We had a very rainy spring. The bugs are offal. Is it ok to use the tomato fertilizer this time of year in August? Not looking for flowers but wanted to keep them healthy in winter. If not what fertilizer should I use? Thanks for the great videos. Have a great day.
Hi Kerry. Wow, it is already cooling down in NJ, I am jealous! 😉 Personally I don’t fertilize when fall season starts because I want my plants to start transitioning to their winter dormancy. Fertilizing May encourage winter growth which I do not want since my cactus stays outside in freezing temps during winter. 🙂
@@CactusCaffeine thanks I did find your video on this subject. Thanks for responding. My cactus haven't been fertilized in a long time. And I didn't get to put them out this summer because N.J. has a lot of bugs this year. Oh boy. I'm 60 and I don't have the stamina to report all of my plants. So I didn't get any flowers this year but that's ok. I'm still looking forward to trying the tomato fertilizer next spring. I had already bought granulated cactus fertilizer. So I used that, I didn't want the cactus to do anything that they weren't supposed to do this time of year. Thanks Again. Have a Great Day.
Your welcome and good luck! Keep in touch. 🙂👍🏼
@@CactusCaffeine I will CHEERS!
Hello, Ana, what is the name of the cactus at 4:44, the tall one with white cover of thorns?
Fatima Moussa Espostoa lanata 😉 Sorry my reply is so late
How are your Haworthias (if any) coping with your climate?
I showed my harworthias together with my aloes at 12:28. Surprisingly, they are coping very well with the heat as long as there is no direct sun on them. 🙂☕️
Ana, do you know the name of the tallest succulent in your planter (the one you said was your first succulent arrangement). I went back and watched the video, it is the second plant you put in the planter, but you didn’t give the name. I’m pretty sure I have that one but haven’t been able to ID it. Mine has kind of a brown woody stem with long rough leaves. I would appreciate your help with its name. 🌵
You might be referring to the Crassula mesembryanthemoides. I only found out the name recently. 🙂
Cactus Caffeine Thank you so much! I didn’t know where to begin and after seeing your reply I did some looking up and I think that’s it! Thank you again! 😀
6:25 What is that cactus at the upper right corner of the screen called?
Linthoisana Yumnam, the label says Easter Lily echinopsis. It has not flowered for me yet.
@@CactusCaffeine I thought I saw a bud on it in your Mother's Day Update video.
It formed buds but they dropped. 😔
@@CactusCaffeine Oh dear!🙁
