  • On today's episode of garden maintenance 101, I'll be getting down and dirty with Fred Ives. If ever there was a succulent that liked having its head cut off, it's
    Fred. Also, please keep a good thought for my friends Tim and Leona. Tim suffered a cardiac arrest six months ago and in the same week as Greg and he is back in the hospital with complications. You are all amazing, like minded and collectively, very powerful.
    Thank you!

    This is very helpful as Fred has run crazy in my garden, snaking around other plants, crawling across the ground, invading the space. Now I know what to do. Thanks, Laura.

    Hello Laura from Melbourne Australia. Love your videos! I spent last year dealing with cancer and I found you on utube while in hospital and started planting succulents. I just love it. The cancer is gone and I have this wonderful new hobby. Thank you so much.

    I need to hold my breath everytime I pull my succulents from the soil but watching you pulling out the succulents like a grass makes me feel that I need to train my succulent to be strong as yours too 😂😂😂😂

    Once in a lifetime (couple years ago) I planted just 4 pumpkins. And one of them got heavily crested. We had no idea what is it. But it looked quite spectacular:) Fred Ives are so easy to multiply. Each ex-leaf spot on the steam growing new plant in a matter of days.

  • @christinemillership1189

    Wow! I love Graptoveria Fred Ives. I got to know about them simply because one or more of them appears in your lovely videos. So as I collect various plants on my travels around the garden centres, I’ve been desperately trying to find Fred Ives here in southern Spain but until this week had no luck and mourned the lack of species here in general........until at last! I found a nursery in Spain that has some pups for sale, online. Bit expensive but it is something new here so it is worth it to get one early. Yay! Thanks for the great video, Laura. Good job! xx

    Oh your yard is making me green with envy🧟‍♂️🤪....but seriously it’s amazing. I can appreciate it doesn’t happen overnight and comes from love. However , I have not gotten to the point where I could manhandle my plants ...I’m afraid to hurt them. I also tend to overwater so I have to restrain myself. You have such a healthy symbiotic relationship with your plants...it’s a beautiful thing. Thank you for letting me tag along. Fred’s head would b so nice as a wedding bouquet.

You just manhandled those things! Seeing how resilient they are I am no longer afraid I will kill it. Thx. Btw...hope your friend made a complete recovery.

    I love that you call it "the garden of death"...haha My husband and I are medical so I have always called that area "Intensive care". I hate to see struggling plants. He always wants to save everything! So sick, scarred plants go out of sight to "ICU". Misnomer, I guess, as in ICU constant intense care is the norm. Anyway...out of sight for me is best.
