Great video Jenny! Your plants are really well cared for and will do well! Hope to see you are the show! BTW I have been showing for many years and I never heard of using a Sharpie to touch up plants before! Interesting!
I have to borrow the car from my Cookie! I also can't believe how happy the Arios look, why don't my other Arios look like this?? Even the ones in my other community planter don't look happy like this!
I do bonsai and many times when you have dead branches we Jin them, or peel back the bark and expose the lighter coloured dead wood to contrast between the green foliage and the healthy living bark. This imitates age in trees in nature. Not sure if that helps for your show but just a thought. Thanks for the content.
@@cookiescacti I would imagine if you're going for an older looking cactus look you could leave parts of it that have grown and died, not sure if that would be aesthetic or not. Sorry never done it to a cactus.
Hehehe, Cookie and her obsession with the car and the garage. I love the blue inermis too. Turns out the ants had taken residence on the Ferocactus and I didn't want to bother them so I swapped out the Ferocactus for an Astropytum instead. Maybe next year!

Please get the Sharpie and colour in those scars - everyone else is! You can be a gracious winner.
I love those scars! It's okay if the judges disagree, we just want to have fun
Please, don't do any writing on plants...

Thank you for sharing! I imagine this technique works for bonsai or tree-like succulents, but does it apply to cactus?
