    Thank you, Lyn. You are very kind. I love that plant and yours is a MONSTER! Hope mine will get that big one day. I see new growth on my epi babies at the moment and it is very welcome.

    so glad i just randomly clicked on this video. you unexpectedly answered a question i had about my fern leaf cactus. it's growing this random stem without any leaves. i think it's the thin stem you referred to. was trying to figure out how i was going to determine what that thing is. thx.

    Thank you for a very clearly explained and illustrated video. I've looked at a few of these in my time and people are always in such a rush to do it they never show what they are doing properly.
    Lyn, if you had a leaf of this plant left over I would really LOVE it. Your Pegasus flowering video was what brought me to your channel in the first place as it is a completely amazing plant.

      Gardening at Douentza Thanks so much Rachel for your lovely comment and yes I would absolutely LOVE to give you as many leaves as you would like of this baby :-) I have them all potted up and you are more than welcome, it would be my pleasure :-) The flowers are so wonderful and breathtaking :-) haha! I know what you mean about some of the videos online, I ended up more confused than ever watching some of them LOL! Thanks so much for watching and have a FANTASTIC day ahead XXXXX

    Excellent job from both of you! I'm amazed at those long, FREAKY red stems and several of the South American and Mexican cactus plants have a slightly more reddened or purplish skin, during the winter time. I'm planning a different kind of a redness video for you though, haha. Thanks for cutting it up!

    • @desertplantsofavalon
      @desertplantsofavalon  9 років тому

      ***** haha! Thanks so much Bob :-) those stems are freaky alright haha! and this big baby was definitely in need of a serious haircut haha! its amazing how they change color, and I love the redness of this plant and it is just starting to come into bud again yippee :-) wow! I will be looking forward to your future redness vid haha! Thanks so much for wathcing Bob and sending you an abundance of love and heaps of happiness from the Emerald Isle to Arizona for a FAB day ahead XXXXXX

    Hi, just came across your video. I got 2 from my late mom. One white one that seems to be dying, not sure if it coz I moved it to the side and put other things with it? It has the afternoon sun, in a long plant holder, so later on I will check it out and prune it and maybe repot it to save it. The other one is at the back of my house and has just flowered and is red with more flowers to open. Think I must repot it as the pot is now finished, perished from the morning sun. This one is also a big one and seems to still be a 'happy' plant not like the sister one on my stoep 😉 thank u for putting this out there ❤️😉

    @paulhanke5827 6 років тому

    Pruning before the flowering cycle will effect the blooming. These bloom off previous years growth. If you prune off new growth you will not get flowers! Always prune if needed after flowering and before new growth starts.
