    A fun side note. Recently most of the Lowes stores have gotten in shipments of plumeria from junglejacks which is headquartered in California. And JungleJacksPlumeria is world renowned for their extensive varieties of miniature plumeria cultivars. They all have tags and pictures on them and list and describe if it's a miniature they are 20-40 USD and minis only grow a few feet and can easily be pruned and many heavily branch forming a small bush only a few feet high as in around or lower than waist level and can be grown in a pot and are succulent compatible. They are easy to clean up too, the leaves when they drop are large and easy to pick up. I have one on my balcony and am quite impressed these exist now. I've been cutting off the fragrant flowers and bringing indoors they last decently long about 5-7 days if cut with the tiny bloom stem part attached when snapping the flowers off. "pink jack" "divine" and "bouquet" are 3 of the best varieties for quantity of blooms and strong scent from going through the dozens of varieties on their website and that I've seen sold at Lowes.

    A delight to watch from Melbourne Australia. I’m building a cheap greenhouse/shade house (in between watching you)as we’re in our 3rd La Niña this year and I just can’t keep my cuttings dry and summer looks like being very very wet as well. I’ve learnt so much from you and really appreciate your work. I had to laugh about humidity… I was in SD 2018 and staying in Chula Vista, it was very humid. But a lovely city!

    Hi Laura, I absolutely love your new succulent and cactus coral reef garden. You inspire me to have a go at creating my own masterpiece garden.....I feel that your beautiful expensive rainbow rock competes a bit too much with the crested Sunburst aeonium, perhaps plainer pieces of rubble wouldn't take too much limelight from the crest......a dedicated Laura junky from Down Under ....cheers Cheryl

  • @nicolemarie6740
    @nicolemarie6740 2 года назад +1

    I think the "crest tableau" is better without any shell or rock under it... it's so restful to look at without anything... like a mysterious path or journey to somewhere else..... It allows viewers to think and "imagine" for themselves what the space is... (not a "black, negative" space but a place for imagination).. with tchotchke under it it's just "another" part of the garden where your eyes might just glance past.

    Laura, as I lay here recovering from hernia surgery yesterday, it’s been fun watching today’s and yesterday’s videos back-to-back. Watching you pull the big, heavy green pot from out of the garden in yesterday’s video re-ruptured my hernia! Oy! Has anyone on Team DFS gotten a hernia from all that pushing and pulling and lifting y’all do? Especially at the weird angles y’all have to twist and bend and work in. Anyway, love the clearing out you did around the crest. It really showcases it….much better! Seems to me that your old Chula Vista garden was almost effortless…everything just grew and did their jobs perfectly. Moving to Vista and planting a new garden and having differences in weather and location and the heat you’ve had, for me, has been super helpful because you’ve had more issues in dealing with sunburn and extreme heat. Helps me a lot with my Florida succs. 😊

    Hello! Perhaps I'm alone in saying that I really liked that green aloe near the crested aeonium. I liked the pop of color it offered although I agree the height was a problem. I wondered if it shouldn't have been planted in-ground instead of in the pot in the same spot. I really like what you did though and it was fun to watch it come about. I'm still thinking it could use a pop of color there. Maybe a talavera starfish or maybe one of those small Christmas aloes or another low, colorful plant that won't get too overgrown. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us. You and Greg are always so generous in sharing your know-how and your experiences good and bad. It makes me think about the possibilities for revitalizing my various areas. ❣️

    I like the shells under the crest. Can you sprinkle a little of that purple DG dressing (or whatever you call it!) at the front to distinguish the creva from the wall? It looks a bit too samey there to me. I've seen you use the purple dressing on some of your jobs at the end and it always adds lovely definition
