Update: I just came to learn that members of the Tucson Cactus and Succulent Society are also eligible to show plants in the CACSS show. Welcome Tucson cactus friends!
Cliff is the Bob Ross of Cactus 🌵 ❤ (especially his voice, so calming) I could watch videos of him for hours a day, and with you are a bonus- all day. Great tips & video , thanks Jenny!!!
Ha! Your Bob Ross comparison is so on point! I found my mind semi-melting watching him pick off the spent leaves on those lithops. I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Barbie!
I love Cliff and he is such a great teacher and representative of our Club! Thank you Jenny for these educational videos. Excellent! See you at the show!
Cliff is the best! His enthusiasm lifts all spirits. I'm so glad you liked this video, it's all thanks to Dan and Cliff for making it happen. See you at the show Nancy!
@@cookiescacti Is this video being advertised on CACSS Facebook page or somewhere? I saw it because I follow you but it should be widely viewed by members.
Gheez- such amazing plants, and what great advise! I will be mentally following those guidelines as I prepare my plants for the show and sale here in Houston in the fall. Thank you 😊
Right?? Universal tips and tricks for all cactus and succulent shows! Someday I'd love to attend the Houston show and all the various shows around the country. Someday...
Ha! It's so funny reading your comment now after having posted the latest part 2 video with Cliff where he mentions that he has accidentally torn off the actual plants before.... LOL!
Cliff is amazing!! This video was super informative. I wish so badly that there was an active Cactus and Succulent Society chapter near me. Central Arizona, do y’all accept virtual members??!! Haha
Ha! I wonder if they accept virtual members?? Someday if the meetings could be on video and broadcasted over Zoom perhaps virtual members can be a thing....
If that was ever an option, I would be in! It would be such a treat to soak up all the knowledge and expertise that gets passed around at the meetings.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this one. Cliff is so fun to be around, especially when he's talking about plants. I hope you join your local cactus club and have a ton of fun participating in the activities!
Woohooooo!! I included all the links in the video description. Btw, there's a meeting tomorrow (Sunday, 4/28, 2-4pm). Al from Botanic Wonders is speaking.
I don't know if Cliff uses fertilizer. I have another video of an open garden event at Cliff's home and I capture a still picture of a piece of paper where Cliff shares his care instructions. I don't remember if he mentions fertilizer. Here's a link to that video: ruclips.net/video/QcK399wnAMU/видео.htmlsi=LcgBHCU5m_RorQzE
😂😂😂 definitely optional. I personally prefer the look of imperfections on plants, so it's probably not something I would do myself but.... Still good to know!

Excellent video, but you completely lost me when the discussion moved to writing on the plant.
