  • Agave's pup like crazy and the babies can find themselves in unwanted areas. For example, next to this barrel cactus. It isn't as daunting of a task if you have gloves, a shovel, and your handy dandy multi-tool aka clippers.

    I love finding pups from all my succulents. I feel like a proud mama! Thanks for showing us the cactus seeds. That’s a new one for me. 🥰

    LOVED LOVED seeing the seed on the barrel - and I hope to god you finished picking those blooms off, you could have kept going to satisfy the other OCD viewers, lol, I enjoyed every pick!

    Hi Laura
    Your videos seem to come out in the morning our time
    Perfect time to inspire me to get outside in the garden
    Yesterday , after watching you, I prepared a herb garden in a self watering planter for my daughter, I will bring it to her when we are allowed to visit again
    I used pieces from my established plants and a planter I had hanging around
    I am so thankful we have a garden, it helps keep me sane at this time
    Virtual hugs to you 🥰❤️🌹

    Love the agave quadracolor and the barrels, but my eyes keep looking at that ALOE TREE.

    Yikes! i have a small tri colour in a pot, i think i will keep it that way for a while, i didn't realise they throw off pups that far away from the mother plant. They can really take over if you don't keep an eye on them can't they! thank you again Laura for more of your gem tips! I am always interested in finding out about the cactus/succulents that may cause a headache by getting too prolific!

    Wow, great video. I love Chula Vista. My sister lives down there and I love visiting her on my motorcycle! Too darn hot in Rancho Cucamonga. I just planted about 100 Echinocactus Grusonii seeds, and they are sprouting like crazy!

      I know! I live in SE Texas... And I think I can get away with most because I drive around and see giant agave in people's yards... But I'm like, it just takes one winter to take out some of the more exotic plants we have around here... Because it's really sad when the tall palms get toasted.

    Don't pull the old flowers from Golden barrel, the birds will pull them out and eat the seed when hungry and will use the fluff to build nests. Let nature happen.

    Me en cantan tus vídeos y me gustaría tener un jardín de cactus y suculentas . Pero el clima de Detroit Michigan es muy duro en invierno adoró los cactus tengo algunos dentro de casa y van muy bien . Un saludo enorme

  • @cactusandfriends_by_vane

    How cool are those seeds! 😍 I will have let them mature in the plant for the golden yellow colors of the fruits ☺️. I've seen them and Echinocactus grusonii are very festive with their "fruits crown". It is studied that they do approx 90 fruits per year and a matured fruit has on average 492 seeds!😃

  • @OCIncognito
    @OCIncognito Před 2 lety

    Always so much inspiration in your videos Laura 🤗 In fact you’ve inspired me to experiment with barrel cactus, which I never would have devised on my own.
    Question for you or anyone of your viewers with experience, is there a minimum distance you’d want to keep a barrel cactus from the sidewalk? I want to pepper a narrow planter running alongside my driveway with some baby barrels (about 7”) and I’m wondering if the space nearest the sidewalk is off limits because of how prickly these plants are. Any advice is much appreciated!

  • @altheac4021
    @altheac4021 Před 3 lety +1

    Ooohhhh please feel free to show the barrel cactus all cleaned up! Does it get sun burned after you remove the seed heads? I will be honest, I haven’t been a huge fan of barrel cactus BECAUSE of the dried-crusty tops... I didn’t know you could clean them up and make them look like new!!

  • @beverlyasleson3321
    @beverlyasleson3321 Před 3 lety +1

  • @jstamps9578
    @jstamps9578 Před 3 lety +3

    But i just got IN from playing with my succulents where I found from a Fred Yves stem in my garden of death that has amazingly put out a stem pup. Do all agaves put out such long runners? Or just some like quadricolor?
