    A friend gave me a lot of succulents and I planted them and after watching your videos I found I did a lot of things wrong, I'm pretty sure they will survive. I've watched a few of your videos and found them really interesting and I'm hooked. Cannot wait to play around with my plants.

      +Eva Turski I'm glad that our videos have been helpful! :) Always nice to hear that! Have fun with your succulents! And, if a few die along the way, know you are in good company. I've killed my fair share before I got things figured out. ;) ~Laura

    You're so lucky to work with driftwood. I want to work with it so badly but on the net, any driftwood that I can afford looks like a limb....no interesting shape to it at all. I would love to afford to take a trip to the Oregon coast or near there.

    Beautiful! Any chance you can give me advice about how to plant succulents in a hollowed log without using heavy machines or tools to cover the base. Will my idea work? Use burlap , put moss in burlap to keep soil within and then add soil and plants? And then staple gun the edge of the burlap to the top of the log? Tks Donna

    Hi Laura , I have been following your videos since long time. They are just amazing. I tried this glueing of succulents on to moss on a plywood piece which was available with me. I attached the moss and the succulents with the hot glue and then watered it immediately as the succulents cuttings had formed callous. But when I saw it in the morning, the moss was coming out of the plywood 😔. Can you help me here pls. Does the hot glue needs rough surface to stick strongly ?

As I'll be collecting driftwood from local beach, there will certainly be sand in crevices, and believe I read somewhere that succulents don't do well with sand? Appreciate your input!!

    Hello, my job has 3 gorgeous succulent plants on a bronze platter that aren’t in any type of soil. They’re literally balancing on their leaves. Is this okay or should they be placed into a soil or at least have some moss around it for moisture? I did notice they have quite a bit of air roots, which usually means they need to be watered more. Let me know what you think! Thanks!

    Hi, just wondering if you could show us how you propagate succulents, and the best conditions for them to grow. I would love to see your set up. Also how much would it cost me to buy one of your succulent arrangements for a table centerpiece? Thank you very much, your answer is well respected.

    • @lucyillek3675

    • @lucyillek3675
      @lucyillek3675 9 лет назад

      +Lucy Illek Also, mainly wondering this because i have tried to propagate and sometimes the succulents get eaten by insects. I have found that out doors (in Sydney, Australia) we have extreme conditions of heat during the day, but lots of rain at night, and this might effect it (i think).

    • @gardenanswer
      @gardenanswer  9 лет назад

      +Lucy Illek Hi Lucy!!! We just finished filming a video on propagating! We plan to have it up in the next week or two! If you have problems with insects, I would find a spot inside near a sunny window to do your propagating, and that will help with the heat problem as well. Thank you for watching!!! :) ~Laura

    Hi Laura, I just found your videos while searching for info on propagating succulents! Im loving watching them. My question is this....I didn't know what I was doing and placed some succulwnt leaves directly in soil without letting them callus. It was a little over a week ago (today is 6/26/18) and they seem tp be alive and well but I'm wondering if Ishould remove them, let them callus and start over? Or, is it possible they'll propagate? Or, a loss? Thank you so much for or your help!

      +Rosanne Perry I put the cut part in the glue! I make sure that the first set of leaves (or first exposed node) is nestled into the moss, though, so it has something to root into. :)

    Would you water the moss before gluing the succulents? Or would the water prevent the glue from working?

    • @gardenanswer
      @gardenanswer  8 лет назад

      +Nixon Khoo The moss is purely decorative so it doesn't need to be watered! :)

    • @Rice60640
      @Rice60640 8 лет назад +1

      +Garden Answer Oh, I thought you said in the video the moss needs to be watered so they succulent can absorb the moisture and grow roots?

    • @gardenanswer
      @gardenanswer  8 лет назад +1

      +Nixon Khoo You are right! Dang it, I thought I was commenting on a different video (the one where I planted succulents on a rock). In this case, I glue the moss on dry then glue in my succulents, then water. :) (Sorry for the confusion).

    • @Rice60640
      @Rice60640 8 лет назад +1

      +Garden Answer No problem, so my question is can you water the moss before you put the succulents in? Seems easier but the concern is that the glue might not hold the plants?

      She talks about this after the 5 min mark. Bright light but depends on what you choose to plant. Each plant has different requirements. Most all succulents want alot of light.

      +Bryan Go There aren't any that I know of that will behave the same way as succulents when treated like they are in this project. Could you order succulents online?

    Doesn't the glue seal the plant? How can it soak up the moisture?

      +Michele Robertson The succs produce new roots from above the cut which root into the moss and can absorb moisture. We did two follow up videos on this project that you might like to check out- one was a month after, and the other was 3 months after showing how they looked and how I could remove them and replant. :) ~Laura
