  • Remember this garden, you guys?
    It’s a stunning home and terraced gardens full of potted, mature cactus and succulents.
    Many predate me.
    I was tasked to care for them once a year about five years ago and in the process I added some fun new additions to the pots as well as the landscape.
    Today, Hannah and Terri and I fluffed everything up.
    Check it out!

    This garden is a good example of how magnificent even succulents grow with age. Loved it.

    I think this garden is exactly what I would want.Large plants and I would definitely want the agave , any type of cactus.The choice of plants and black rocks ,really compliments the style of the house.

    That symmetrical style of planting with the barrels and agave doesn’t seem like something you’d do. But it matches those pebble rocks. Clean and neat.

    I definitely identify as a collector rather than a designer. I have many containers with only one plant in each. Every time I think about trying to put a designed mixed pot together I just lose motivation and end up potting singular plants. I just bought a false ocotillo today. I keep seeing them in your videos and they look so interesting. I went to Poot's Cactus Nursery in Ripon and got a baby Fred Ives too.

    A thought for next time, those curly jade would look great just spaced out all down the hedge now that they are so big and lace them out like giant bonsai. I bet you already thought of it too but didn't because it would be a nightmare to move those heavy concrete planters. Still really cool regardless and to see such old specimens with such fat trunks on them. I used to think those curly jade were nothing great just a basic hedge type plant but they are really growing on me. Even the color is a nice mild green unlike the dark green jades.

    Hi Laura! For those large containers with the large cactus, do you fill it completely with soil or do you add plastic bottles first so it won’t retain too much moisture. Thank you! I want to get a large pot and plant a cactus but scared it’ll rot. Thanks ;)
