  • I recently ordered a box of succulents from ‪@Mountaincrestgardens‬ and was thrilled to see so many options for cold-hardy succulents. Many of these can be grown indoors as well-and would be suitable for those cold windowsills in the winter. In fact-they would thrive in cold windowsills. Something to consider when getting plants!

    im in florida and i LOVE the coarse sand, shells, and dead snail shells that I find underneath our palm trees. it provides great drainage. i tried bonsai mix as well. now I'm using peat moss, perlite, clay/sandy silt, organic matter, and mini rocks. they seem to love it!

    I watched a Scottish gardening show a couple of weeks ago and they suggested the name house leek came from them being used to actually plug leaks in the roofs of the houses in scotland anyway. Cool eh!

    If you like dramatic colour changes, Sempervivum "Mystic" completely changes throughout the year. There's probably 4 different distinct color changes, always takes me by surprise!

    • @littlebeebs1
      @littlebeebs1 Год назад +1

      Ooh ! Thank you for the suggestion! What colors do the Mystic get ? I’m obsessed with them and now have about 80 varieties 🤣

    • @joeldezwaan1149
      @joeldezwaan1149 Год назад

      @@littlebeebs1 off the top of my head I remember it goes very light green with bright pink centre in late winter/early spring. That's my favourite! I think it goes a dark purple at other times of the year

    You should consider growing Opuntia humifusa. It’s a lovely yellow flowering prickly pear that’s hardy to zone 5 without issue, and it produces an edible fruit in late summer/early fall.

    Hi Summer! I love the outdoor succulents and need to get some. I have primarily hens and chicks that I've had for years growing outside in a low pot. I do have some sedum varieties that I really enjoy. Thank you so much for sharing!

    Sempervivums are my absolute favorite now. This is such a wonderful video. I know a lot about them already. But listening to the information from you is very engaging. And I’m learning a little bit more. This is off-topic, but I swear you should do workout videos. you are in such fantastic shape. I need to get in better shape myself. I am in good shape because of my work but I would love to be in the fantastic shape that you are in. It is very inspiring.🤗

    I love an unboxing!...especially succulents. The Sempervivum are so beautiful ~ all the varied colourways & shape variations...some very subtle. Really enjoy the added dimension of your taking us through the background details and folklore of the plants. First time I've seen or heard of an Orostachys ~ really like its close clumping growth habit. You know Chippy Chipmunk made a few guest appearances from 16:30 onwards. I hope it's a really long summer season for you at Flock ~ it looks glorious!

    Great video, very informative! Am a big succulent plants fan myself and grow quite a few of the plants you are showing in Germany - really interesting to compare and see the selection you are showing and growing over in the the US. Love your channel! Thanks for sharing, have a great day and happy growing!!

    I love those plants! Here in the Netherlands we don't have to water the sedums and sempervivums when they're outdoors (or we even have to take care they aren't over-watered by the rain)

    the muratdaghensis name comes from murat dağı (mt. murat) in turkiye
    also, about the houseplants that don't mind cold windowsills, those mini erodiums like x variabiles do great year round indoors and can be grown in tiny pots alongside succulents to create a bigger range of texture but like a lot more watering

    I live in Coastal MA and have these Opuntia's in planter boxes in the yard. Opuntia rhodantha 'Grand Mesa Peach,
    Opuntia 'Crystal Tide, Opuntia polyacantha ‘Dark Knight, from Mountain crest Farms around 2019. And an Opuntia humifusa 'Inermis'. The latter is Native from Mexico up to Canada on the east coast. If anyone is going to plant them I would recommend in a raised bed or planters. They survived negative temps like it was just another day.

    Really enjoyed what I learned from this video. In the next video about succulents it would be nice to know how they fair in relation to pest outbreaks. Would the sempervivum with the cob-web like feature be less susceptible than other varieties. Thank you for allowing me to also be a part of your plant journey.

    honestly may look at them again (that company), there's a spot around the mailbox that's so dry it's ended up with opuntia and some others, looks a bit unique for zone 6a MA but fun for that reason as well

    Thank you for this video, Summer 🥰 I live in a 5th floor walkup with a south-west facing long and narrow balcony (the balcony has a ceiling due to the roof) at around zone 8b. Although, due to global warming and over-heating of cities, it is leaning more on zone 9a to 9b in the recent years, which is really unfortunate. I have gotten two vining honeysuckle plants for privacy and to attract pollinators, which I have yet to plant in their final pots and train the shoots. I already had cat-proofed the balcony with some chicken wire on the bottom half and invisible cat net on the top, so it will be easy for them to trail I guess. Other than that, I have some Mediterranean herbs, pelargoniums and also a couple of tansies as pest repellants. The balcony gets really hot in summer, so ı need to be very careful about what I put there. Long story short, it could be a good idea to try out some of the succulents you shared with us in this video 🪴🌵

      Sempervivum happily grow in my inland San Diego yard. Temps range from 30° to 110°. As long as it doesnt get too hot before establishing, Sempervivum love heat and cold.

    Great buy Summer, you'll love these plants! I've been growing Sempervivums and Jovibarbas for years and have literally hundreds of them as they grow so many chicks. They grow outdoors all year round, most of them on pure gravel, 0% to maybe 10% soil. Some I grow in the ground too, they aren't too fussy; they like a lot of sun. I call them silgreens but yes, there are so many common names. If they flower the hen always dies, they will seed but the vast majority of babies are from her chicks.

    • @jonstfrancis
      @jonstfrancis 2 года назад

      Oh, I also have a Ruschia pulvinaris but have it indoors. Mine has long woody shoots. It has beautiful purple flowers. I find it requires more watering than most of my indoor succulents.

  • @heatherdickson7966
    @heatherdickson7966 2 года назад

    Thank you so much I just started collecting them and I would like to learn a lot more about them I just called him chicks and hens but this segment is very interesting I recently moved and my collection for inside is rhipsalis I know you have a segment on that and I’ve recently saw that segment so anything you can tell me about both plants more than what you just reviewed I’d be grateful from Harrisburg Pennsylvania

  • @b_genny
    @b_genny 2 года назад

    It's not the cold weather that kills them. It's when they get soaked in the snow for days. They mushy and die. I killed them 2 yrs in a row when I forgot to take them inside before snowfall
