The cacti your husband bought you grow so tall because they are grown with a little extra love, as my Mom used to say. Mom has dementia now. But, when she was younger, she absolutely loved plants/cacti. She could really make them grow. Even in the middle of Indiana!
Beautiful cactus collection! Thanks for showing!❤🌵
I'm loving cacti and succulents soo much more lately! I'm really looking to grow my collection and seeing yours helped me make a wish list! Thanks 😊🌵
Thanks Teresa!!
So BEAUTIFUL
Thank for taking time. Your cactus tour is great. Putting labels on them is perfect. Now I know what they are. I gave you A+ for your efforts. Thank you again. 😎
That was amazing! So many. Appreciate the labels
Great collection! Thanks for sharing
I love the little lava rock pebbles as a top dressing! I should try that!
Thanks!!! I love the look of them
So good to see you do this again! Just seems like yesterday when I watched your first one!
😉
Fun video! Love all your euphorbias, too. Those astrophytums are just plain cute.🧡
I'm trying to figure out how to keep my cacti outside this summer in St. Louis for the first time. This weekend it's all about keeping them dry 🙂
Oh, I think your unknown cactus looks like my gymnocalycium baldianum.
Someone mentioned Desert Plants of Avalon, I also like Cactus Caffeine's videos. She's in Las Vegas.
Thanks for the recommendation!!!
Yay a cactus tour!! My first ever plant loves were mamillaria and I feel like so many plant tubers miss out on cacti
Yeay!!! Those are so pretty
Beautiful collection
Looking good Nicole! Currently got my eye on a ric rac cactus - just love the shape!
Yes it’s so cool!
Love your cacti collection, very nice. Yes, there are cold hardy cacti.
Succulents are my passion. Great to see this on UA-cam.
🧡🧡🧡
Nicole you have an amazing cacti collection. I feel that they are a little overlooked, and they are such chill plants to own. Put them in a sunny window and water them sparingly💕🌵
That can be a challenge with the sunny window because all of our plants want that space😜🤣
Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Super collection I loved it
Awesome collection ❤
Nicole that’s a Medusa. The ones after the spineless cactus. Yes the really prickly pear cactus pad is cold hardy. Love your cactus plants. Great video.
Medusa yes!!! Thanks Tammy!
They're all so amazing!! Every time there was one without spines/with very spaced out spines I just wanted to pet it 😄💚
Hahahah same!
Wow what a collection!!!
Thank you!
You have a fantastic cactus collection 😍
Thanks!!!
Great collection
Thanks 🌵Really enjoyed this video
Thanks!
After searching for 3 hours on the internet looking for a name of a cacti that I have I finally found it on your video!! Yaaay !! It is the Eves needle !! Thanks for a great video I am now following your channel !
Thank you!!
Phoenix airport has cute little petting cactus! I bought one on my way home from Yuma!!!
Cool collection of cactus.
Thank you!!
BEAUTIFUL COLLECTION.
Thank you!
yes i was so excited to see this video... well any video you post lol!!!
Awww thanks lady!!! You’re so sweet!
@@MyCleanLeaves lol
Nice Display!
Awesome video! Your Fairytale cactus is super pretty, as well as all of the rest!!! So so pretty!!! Do they each get watered at the same time? Once every 2 weeks or longer? Have an awesome week! Peace out! Be safe in Chicago!
Yes! I usually water them all at once. Some I give a little more depending on the size. It’s usually every 2-3 weeks
I love that old man cactus and pot together 😍
It’s one of my favorites!
Wow, love your cacti collection. I think the one cactus is a gymnocalycium baldianum(12:12) I got mine recently from home depot or Lowe's☺️
Oh awesome!!! Thanks!!
the first cactus you showed i have one 9 foot tall. it has arms and i have cut it back twice. i have a pencil cactus 5 foot + tall. also 4 other cactus between 4-5 foot. then i do have smaller cactus that are slow growing. the fairly castle of mine is about 5 inches. i was glad to see they can get bigger. thank you for showing your cactus and their names. the names helped me to identified some of them.
So fun!!!
Amazing
You have no ball cactus? The ones that grow huge. You have a beautiful cacti collection. I've just gotten into cactus this year. And man.. it's addicting. Lol. You just wanna buy them all. 😃
Oh my Gosh Nicole! you have an amazing collection of cacti, until I have the proper lighting conditions and the space, which will probably not happen until next year I can't even think about getting any,so I will just enjoy your collection till them. I would really like the boobie cactus, and I have a pot for it, lol! so we will see about that one. Loved the tour of all of them it was super fun learning about the many different kinds. Take care and I will see you soon, XOXO, bye for now.
Thank you Holly!!
Tephrocactus Articulatus or "Paper Spine" Cactus, Opuntia macrocentra, the long-spined purplish prickly pear or purple pricklypear and the Echinocereus rigidissimus, commonly known as the Arizona Rainbow Cactus or Rainbow Hedgehog Cactus are some of my favorite. I own the first two and I am looking for the rainbow cactus locally before ordering online. Great video.
Thanks so much!!!
Silver torch is my favorite cactus too!
Love ❤️ your plants. For your cactus garden, does the pot have drainage holes? I’d look to create the same but wonder if I can do it in a pot with no drainage holes. 🤷🏽♀️
Yes it does
Oh and I just subbed you!❤🌵❤
Thank you!!!
New Subscriber here! Love your collection and knowledge.
Thank you!!!
All the cacti are so cute!! I can’t keep them alive though.
Awww - they’re not easy it takes some getting to know them that’s for sure
Want an Obesa😁 and that "juicy " one, love it😉 also got to get an old man cactus 😄🌵
Love the idea of the gatden cactus also, very cool all together 😁
Thanks so much Lorraine!
Hi I love your collection. I’m starting to get quite the collection myself. I’m wondering about light. Mine get a lot in the spring and summer but winter I always worry about them. I live in Alberta, Canada and it gets really cold. I see you have yours all over and not under lights or have them all in a window. Would they just not grow or flower if they are in a lower light area?
They were very slow growing due to lack of BRIGHT direct light, but I recently got grow lights (video posted in November) and they are much more happy :)
Euphorbia is an extensive genus of plants with more than 2,000 species. It is not a cacti. This is why I changed my plan of mixing Cactus and Euphorbias in one pot for my desert pot scene. I am now planning to make 2 desert pot scene. One for Cactus and 1 for Euphorbias since they dont exist in the same environment. Nice collection by the way. Im heading your path . I now have almost 20 in my collection 😁
WoW you Cactus ROCK Girl
Thanks!
Hey Sweetie, you could be chapped as well as sunburned. That happened to me, took forever to heal.
At 2:48 the one next to the 'Living Stones' / Lithops looks like a Crassula ‘Rupestris.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon your video. I've been looking online for so long, to figure out which species of cacti I have. Turns out that I have a silver/wooly torch cactus. When should I repot it? Should I repot it now or wait till Spring? Thank you for the video :)
If it has outgrown its pot I would repot now. If not, wait til it’s warmer out :)
I have an old man of the Andes cactus and he is my favorite!!!!
I love that one!
Muy bonita colección aunque pienso estaría en mejores condición con un clima más acorde pero bueno eso no lo elegimos , se hace con lo que tenemos , vi tu video de principio a fin !!! Enhorabuena
I feel like most videos are for tropical ariod plants. So, I love this video 🥰
Thanks Ashley! I’m a desert gal
Beautiful Cactus! I know this is an older video however what is the soil type that you have the cactus growing in? I have a collection although far smaller than yours however they are healthy!
Now I use De La Tanks soil. It’s a great airy mix!! I top them with lava stone.
Opuntia fragilis, I love the one with pink flowers d: .
Oooo pink flowers!!!! Yes!
Love this! And the set up 😍😍 you’re inspiring me to put a rock cover on all my babies
Haha do it!! I love the desert look it gives
I am so jealous of your Euphorbia collection 😭, your Echinopsis cactus are, Echinopsis oxygona, your ric tac cactus is mislabeled it's actually Epiphyllum anguliger, but you have a very impressive collection, one day I'll get there, to have a collection as beautiful as yours, very entertaining video!
Thank you David!! ☺️
Do u know when a cactus that has a long stem coming out of it and has littlee oval bulbs and starting to open are they seeds that can plant
The fishbone cactus looks like anguliger with its rounded leaves, antonyanus has more pointed leaves known as shark tooth
Hey, I couldn’t find the white stone in your Amazon?! Could you be so kind to post the link?! I love it!!
I’ve used this one before….
amzn.to/3GZrU8A
But I also LOVE this stone (just not white)…
amzn.to/3rM0MUh
What do u use for ur labels? So jealous of ur collection 😍
Oh thanks! They’re in my Amazon store in the description below :)
That red spine pilosocereus looks a lot more like a Mammilaria elongata to me. Also 19:26 = Thanksgiving cactus.
I have a tiny mamillia . I had no idea how to find it
Do you have a moisture meter ? If so do you wait till ur moisture meter says 1 (lowest number on scale) to water these ?
I do have a moisture meter, but if I’m being transparent, I don’t use it much anymore. I know when they need water after having them for so long. BUT YES! That is what I would recommend- letting them dry before watering thoroughly
Ive had some Cactri bloom while in tiny pots. You just need good quality soil. Check out the ingredients of 'Grow Buddha' cactus soil.
Opuntia ficus indica or Barbary fig almost doesn't have glochids and/or spines.You might like it.
Dont be afraid to put your cacti in direct light. They're desert dwellers! They require it.
I have an Opuntia at the beginning of my driveway and when I moved in they had not been properly cared for, lots of debris around it and just serious decline. I got in there and cleaned it out and now its 3rd year with me it has grown, especially this year. I know he will bloom eventually because I see them in bloom all around town. And it is the cold hardy variety because we get snow here in NC. But...he is an a-hole and will spit his spines at you if you get too close. I've potted up 2 pots of cuttings now so I can take him with me when I move, because I'm super proud I've brought him back to life. Only true cactus I have. Thinking I need a few more now. Loved, loved your collection! ✌💟🌿
That is so cool Lindsey!!! I would take it with me too! How amazing.
How often do you water them? Im from chicago too
It really depends on a lot of factors - soil medium, light, conditions…
I do have an euphorbia white ghost. It doesnt grow fast. Do you know how to grow cactus faster and larger?
Light and fertilizer and as optimal conditions as you can give it!
@@MyCleanLeaves thank you;)
Maybe if you find the time o do an updated cactus tour
Love that blue candle 😍 i think the one at 8:10 is not Peruvian apple cactus
Yeah idk... I’m torn on it. It was definitely labeled that but it doesn’t look exactly like it either
I’ve been building up my cactus collection here in AZ. I still want to get a domino and a chocolate drop. 😬
Oh yes!!! Those are so cute! 🌵
Do they flower? Tomato fertilizer will help them bloom...
I love a bishop's cap
It’s so cool!
god job
I have a ming thing but mine doesn’t grow in tiny clusters like yours. It’s growing with 4 heads. 😅
Haha of wow!!!
And I need one of those “bergia”!
☺️
Leuchtenbergia. They're very slow growing. Lol
That astro is a onzuka v type.
👍👍👍
UVA and UVB sunscreen especially with a cloudy sky.
Is that lava rock you have on some of your cactus? I've never seen it that little, I see it in a lot better form.
Yes it’s from Bonsai Jack! It’s in my amazon store
@@MyCleanLeaves ok thank you, I need to order some. I like the way it looks 🙂
Do you have a pink flowering crown of thorns. I also have a butter yellow flowering one. Let me know if you're interested.
I don’t! I would love them!!
Maybe we can trade :) send me a DM on IG 🧡
If you put your Lichtenbergia cactus out in the sun for the season, it may reward you with a beautiful yellow flower. 😁😁
💛💛💛
It’s not a cactus, but I have an aloe khamiesensis that grows SO well for me, and I think you’d really enjoy it! Maybe check it out on the google!!
I will! Thanks!!
How can I find your store on amazon ?
It’s in the description box but also:
www.amazon.com/shop/mycleanleaves?ref=cm_sw_sm_r_inf_own_mycleanleaves__mw_OKZDDW7sZNRS6
You are mad and I love it
Your collection is excellent! But where are your mealy bugs???
Haha they have no place here!!! Lol
pretty sure the pilocereus red spine is a actually a mammilaria elongata v. copper
Cool thanks ;)
Love this video, I am slowly getting my cactus collection built up. If anyone knows of a good online cactus seller please do share.
CactusArchive on Etsy is great!!!
Can you leave the link for the white shelves?
Yes! Adding now - sorry about that!!
@@MyCleanLeaves thank you so much!(:
It's interesting to go through your cactus collection. Is it advisable to plant different species of cactus into one pot to create an interesting pot garden or each in it's own pot?
I find cactus do very well potted together even if they’re different species. I like to keep my “special” cactus / euphorbia potted separately just in case one gets root rot, it can spread to others. Same with pests. So that’s just something to keep in mind.
@@MyCleanLeaves I am fascinated by Mammillaria spinosissima. This solid green spiky ball with single long thorn extended out from each spike is among my favourite cacti. I wonder if there's any common name for this cactus.
I save cacti from CVS too!
🍀👍
Do you know about euphoria obesa?
Yes, they’re in this video! I also did another video featuring them at a plant shop in Tucson where the owner explained how they “pollinate” :)
If you haven’t seen her channel, you should check out @DessertPlantsofAvalon (not sure how to tag people). She is the cactus queen for sure.
Yes!
Yes she is the queen of cactus but she is in Ireland I believe and I don't think she sells them for international. Bummer
Where do u get the cactus? Live yr collection.
Love I meant
All over the place! My mom lives in AZ so I’ve gotten a lot there... California, Florida, some shops in Chicago, New York.....
Any cactus variety with "inermis" in its name has no spines or glochids. "Inermis" means "harmless."
Golden rat tail
U should have a crown of thorns
