    The barrel colonies are gorgeous and I can imagine how hard it is to make them look so natural. Nothing boring about them at all! I have to say that the square in the back with the colony and the green rock is my fave. Breathtaking.

    12:13 , I find myself captivated by the charm of the barrel colonies, which exude a whimsical aura and possess a playful spirit. As a minimalist at heart, I am drawn to the international style architecture, and these colonies align perfectly with my aesthetic preferences. They exude simplicity without unnecessary embellishments, while also carrying a profound, almost spiritual significance. When viewed through a geometrical lens, the symmetrical and structured formation of the plants leaves me in awe. It's truly astonishing how nature can create such marvels!

    The barrel colonies are on another level of statement. It is simple yet dazzling and is just such a flex. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s jaw drops whenever you do one. So.. a few naysayers are.. meh 😂, it always happens with art anyway 🤭. Not everyone will get it but the people that do will love you for it ❤

    That view is just beautiful, the owners of the home knew what they were doing by not building a fence as a barrier. A naturalistic perspective. I absolutely love what Laura did there in the backyard with the tall cactus and the barrels and rocks. Looks amazing, my kinda style. The barrel cactus colony around the front of the home looks amazingly stunning too, very unusual and natural unstructured flow ❤

    I think the barrel cactus clusters are the coolest. The repetitive shapes and colors are soothing to my eyes. I like the visual contrast in the front of the barrel colony, the specimen garden with the beautiful Palo Verde, and then the island tapestry.
    And the raised bed in the back is interesting and leads the eye out towards the great view.

    Oh thank you! What a great frame of mind for the little sedums….long term annuals. I was in San Diego forever but now I am in Northeastern Ohio and I have been so spoiled for so long with tapestries lasting forever in the land of milk and honey. I had sedums and sempervivums look beautiful all winter long but everyone around here grows annuals. I never thought of succulents as being annuals. This changes the game because I don’t have to plant everything and then struggle to keep it going forever in this crazy weather…seasonal would be ok! Thank you so much for giving me perspective. I knew I was so close to having an aneurysm when I walked into a nursery and said…why do you have a barrel cactus? The cashier said…oh…that’s a houseplant. The horror. Everything is a houseplant here. It’s so wrong.

    Maybe some people don’t like the simplicity of the barrel colony, but I like the “mono” aspect of it even though I’m not a big fan of barrel cactus. What I would like to say is that you have taught me about the importance of changes in elevation almost like islands that add so much to the design. Even though I’m unable to grow many of these plants here in Oregon, I still feel like you have taught me some good design principles. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next. 👍

If I lived in California and had an unlimited budget I'd plant an acre of the Pilosocereus Azures. It's my favorite plant that you use.

  • @stefaniereid8752
    @stefaniereid8752 Год назад

    Oh my gosh Laura... I for one, think that the barrel colonies are art pieces! When I was at Oasis Water Efficient Gardens last month, they had the white spine barrels so I picked one up to place in my next phase of bed re-do's in my yard. I absolutely adore these fatties...especially when they are in bloom! If you look at some of the botanical gardens and museums in Arizona, and here in our desert California communities, they mimic what you are doing with these lovelies. But ya, they aren't for everyone I suppose... or maybe they just haven't come to the cactittie side...🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

  • @robingrunzweig3940
    @robingrunzweig3940 Год назад

    i LOVE the barrel colonies... barrels are nature's gift to busy gardeners... and the placement and simplicity of the design, to me, gives the eye a place to rest and just study the gorgeous symmetry of mother nature... the mastery of elevation and placement of rocks makes or breaks the look, too.. i see gardens around here that are a poor attempt at xeriscape (to me) now that i know more - and all i can see is "that's too flat, too flat, too flat"... looks like mars instead of a gorgeous natural garden (even mars has dips and valleys!).. but hey, that's just me... i am loving these gardens front and back! what a crew you have with you - so much talent and eye for design.... yup, Team DFS doing it again!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

    The barrel colony is well done… there is a beautiful barrel colony at the entrance of one my favorite resorts in carefree Az, ‘the boulders’ … it’s stunning… this was very well done. I personally would like to see some tricolor Crassula and kiwi aronium filled in around the sides… or some continuous edge softener, other than elephant food and with more yellow… I’m just always looking for places to use that particular combo right now. A mixed tapestry would be too much, although I wouldn’t hate it… it’s great the way it is though. Truly well done.

    • @janetyamashige9573
      @janetyamashige9573 Год назад +2

      I agree about the black rock in the raised bed. Not because of the heat (I'm pretty sure the cactus can take it) but I just think it won't look right. It'll work in the front yard barrel colony because it has the light stucco wall behind it and the light pavement in front of it, but in that red brick-topped bed I think a light-colored top-dressing would look better. JMHO, though- Laura is the succulent and cactus expert, so she's the boss!

    when u said you were going to do tapestry, i was thinking, "really" shouldn't it be a barrel cactus along that front. and then on the second day, you said you decided to use barrels and i thought, "YES!!!". and i loved the way it looked yesterday with the clusters of families of barrels big and small and gaps between the families but today, i don't know if i just didn't see the angle right, but i felt it looked too much. there isn't enough breathing room between the clusters. but i just love the idea of the barrel cactus and the elevated one with the single cactus, and beautiful boulders, that was awesome. here in houston, we can't get such big barrels, so i made mine with tiny barrels. lol
