  • Come join me and my special guests Gary Duke & Crazy4cactus as we take the 6.5 hour drive up to Ripon California to visit the legendary Poots Cactus Nursery. We got a tour of their private specimen greenhouse and got to hang with Bill & Brian Poot and father and son duo who with the help of Mrs. Poot and the rest of family have owned and operated the nursery since 1994. Enjoy!

    I had the pleasure of visiting Poots cactus nursery in August 2021. I drove 5 and a half hours to get there. Hands down the most immaculate cactus garden I’ve seen to date. Brian gave my gf and I a crazy good deal on two blue crested Myrtillo cactus that weren’t even on the sale table. Such generous and wholesome people. Can’t wait to visit again.
