Succulent Garden Desert Scape One Year Update
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2024
- This is a follow up to our previous video titled Succulent Garden Desert Scape Conversion. This is about one year later after adding the rock topper and a few more plants. Also not mentioned is that we had to add sand and gravel mix to the topsoil because the topsoil was mostly fertilizer, which began to grow fungus. The garden is maturing and acclimating very nicely as you will see.
You have incredible plant varieties and colors. Thanks for videoing and sharing. The fun thing with succulents is that they're very easy to dig up and move around if they need more or less sun, shade, water come summer. But they look awesome now.
Thank you Js, we do plan to make some minor changes an to begin to harvest the pups and babies.
Beautiful, I would say it's the Best looking yard on your block!!!!! STUNNING ❤❤❤❤❤
Hello Ronnie, we would agree with you! We are hoping to start a trend of water conservation through succulent gardens.
Love your design 😍❣️❤ happy to subscribe and like. Im a collector and grower of all types for many years now...49 actually 😊 plants are my passion ❤❤❤
Thank you Bobbiechinn! Wow! 49 years…you must have an amazing garden, and you must know a lot about plants. I’m tagging along with my wife whose passion is rubbing off on me. 😊
Gorgeous it made me Happy looking @ your Beautiful garden.Love it.Thanks 4 Sharing.
You are welcome!
It is a joy to walk through the garden and to see how the various succulents have grown and bloomed. Very soon we’ll have to do some maintenance such as removing some of the overcrowding aoneums and aloes…
Wow, wow, wow! What an awesome garden you have!
Thank you! It really is maturing nicely. We are starting to have trim pups.
You may want to move your aeoniums to more shade , they really aren't sun lovers. Remember, they are winter growers. Right now would be a great time. They are summer dormant. You may want to switch them out for some of the crassulas. Sunset Jade will give you color.😊
That’s a good idea! Thank you for the advice!
Such a beautiful garden.
Thank you. The garden is holding up and maturing very nicely. No major maintenance yet, although we do have to trim some pups and babies that are over growing.
Amazing garden great job !❤
Thank you! We’re glad you enjoy it.
It really is nice walking through the garden and seeing the sprouting pups and blooming flowers. The bees and the hummingbirds are liking it as well.
Gorgeous!
Thank you so much! We’re glad that you enjoyed it.
Just beautiful ❤.
Thank you Ds, the garden is really an enjoyable sight.
Wow beautiful
Thank you Caloes, we enjoy the garden as well.
Looks like it could use an Echeveria Crimson Tide... The garden looks beautiful after the rain!
Hello Joris, funny you should mention that…we just happened to have received a rare ECT from our loving cousins in The Netherlands and we will soon place it in a special place in the Garden. 😊
We grow cactus and Yuccas, agaves, and succulents here in South Texas. They grow like weeds. We get about 30 inches of rain a year , most of it in the winter, we mound everything that are succulents, or arid and some years we are lucky to get 10 inches like this past year.l have alot of man made arroyo in my yard and l can tell from your video you found a perfect spot for one 😂😂 love your vid😊
Thank you Juan! I could’ve waited about an hour later to film and then the water would’ve been gone. We were concerned about the drainage but it has not been a problem.
Thank you for sharing new subscriber here like 2 videos ❤
Thank you 🙏
I’m glad you enjoyed the videos.
I’m going to make a “Lessons Learned “ video someday that shows how we did certain things and some setbacks that we experienced.
Lol, the aloe pups could be due to the soil, but if anything, that’s just how they are! Most aloes will grow like mad if they’re happy, and after rain, especially. Here in SoCal (I’m in San Diego), they reliably bloom and pup year-round-but especially in winter, I’ve noticed. Never knew that it was a real thing until I read an article about it! I guess because they’re from South Africa and have opposite seasons to us in the northern hemisphere, they’ll go crazy at certain times…
Thank you Eric for the info, that’s good to know. We were in San Diego last weekend visiting friends and catching a ballgame at Petco Park. Driving around the neighborhoods we saw a lot of very nice succulent gardens. It’s definitely a garden friendly place!
Wow 😲😲😲 beautiful ❤️❤️❤️🥰🤩😍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Thank you Eli…we really enjoy it as well!
Luv it ❤️❤️❤️🥰🤩😍👌👍👏👏👏💐💐💐🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Thank you Eli!
Are you in Calif. ? Did you do the planting ? Looks great ! Could be a Laura Eubanks install.
Hello William, yes we live in the Inland Empire here in Southern California. My wife had the garden idea and I assisted with the planning, labor, and funding 😁.
We did most of the work ourselves with a little help from my brother. Thank you for the comments.
This video shows the process of how we converted our lawn to the succulent garden:

I thought the same thing!!!!
Juan and his wife are my friends and both she and I are big Laura followers. It was quite an undertaking but it's so beautiful in person.
. Are the plans facing N S E or W.
We live on a corner lot that faces East, and we are fortunate to get some sun from all directions mostly from the East, South, and West. Partial sun from the North depending on the area of the yard, such as the long section next to the block wall or the front area next to the driveway. The sunlight also varies throughout the day.
What is the name of your rock top dressing?
We used 3/4 inch California Gold for the topper, and for the perimeter stones we used roja mujeres (?).
