WOW this is an AMAZING video Daz :-D and wonderful choice of top 5 beginner cacti, and FANTASTIC that you have chosen individual plants from the different Genus's as some cacti are more difficult to grow than others in each of their Genus, and beautiful videography and photography too, and YES Echinopsis subdenudata is definitely our No1 Beginner cactus to start with, thanks so much for sharing both your's and Edith's Top 5 Beginner Cacti with us, and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Edith lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to England and Singapore for a super Sunday today XXXX
Thank you so much, Lyn 😊 Yeah it had to be Echinopsis subdenudata at number one, such an easy and forgiving cactus to grow and enjoys being on a sunny windowsill. When I do a seedling update I’ll show the Echinopsis subdenudata grown from seed that you sent, they’re getting biiiiiiig lol. Thank you so much again, Lyn. Have a wonderful Sunday from Edith & myself to you and Hans ❤️🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜
Agree! When I saw your title, I thought Echinopsis subdenudata should be in that list. 😃👍🏼 Great video, Daz. Especially with your experience growing them mostly indoors gives a different perspective as well. Hopefully this will inspire new gardeners to try the hobby. 🌵☺️
Thank you so much, Ana 😊 Yeah it was important that we chose ones that are also easy to grow and do well indoors. I’ll probably do another one with 5 that are easy care but don’t necessarily do well indoors, and of course the more difficult ones. Thank you for watching and commenting as always, Ana. Have a wonderful day and rest of the weekend from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜☕️
This is the second time that I have watched this vid, And surprisingly I didn't leave a comment last time? All's good and some lovely plants that I Certainly would not disagree with, Thanks again , Bill.
Thank you so much 😊 I don’t remember you commenting on this video before, but thank you for doing so now 😊 Have a lovely evening from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🏜
Thank you so much, Magda 😊 Yeah the Matucana is a very prolific one, bit desperate for a repot as well. Will do that in the spring. Thank you for watching and commenting as always, Magda. Have a wonderful Sunday afternoon and evening from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
I haven’t yet in the UK, but it probably won’t be long before they do start showing up. In Singapore though it’s a different story, widely available from nurseries. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
Lovely video and beautiful cacti! For me No 1 and No 5 are best because they don't have spines at all or just a few small ones! Thanks for the information on each one of them! Hope you have a wonderful evening! Lots of love to you Daz and Edith!
Thank you so much, Sylvia 😊 Yeah the ones that aren’t spiny are great, it’s why I love Lophophora as well, which almost made this list as it’s not as difficult to care for as some claim. Thank you for watching and commenting. Have a wonderful Sunday from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌸🌼🏜
So 😍 lovely! I agree with your top list, I have them all, because I recently bought the Asterias (I had other astrophytums but this one I thought it was difficult to grow). I'm just collecting cacti for four years or so... but number one and two were easy to find everywhere! I have abundance and I made seeds last summer so, definitely the 🔝 easy to grow also outside given the right temperature. Love from Spain and have a great weekend 💞.
Thank you so much again, Vanesa 😊 Yeah for Edith & myself these have been the easiest. There are others so I’ll definitely do another top 5 list that didn’t make this one, and of course some more difficult, choice cacti. Thank you for watching and commenting as always, Vanesa. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜
Thank you, glad you enjoyed 😊 Many Haworthia have very similar care, but there are some that are a little more challenging so I’ll certainly consider doing a video on the top 5 easiest ones. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
What a great round of cacti for beginners Daz! I couldn't agree more with your choices. Astros, Feros and Echinopsis are great starter plants. Thanks for this video and helping get others into this wonderful hobby that we love so much. I hope you and Edith are having an awesome week🤍
Thank you so much, Forsythia 😊 Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and commenting, have a wonderful day and rest of the week from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜
Nice ones. I would add mammillaria Gracillis Snowcap as one of the easiest. Doesn't die with a bit more water, doest burn in full sun, does well in less sun, any soil, easy rooting.. Nice look.
Great choices of to easy care for beginners cacti collection.I had a few of your lists that are wintering fine.Although I lost one astrophytum the other two astros are fine.
A great selection Daz! My Astrophytum you sent me is doing nicely!! I love the ferocactus latispinus I have a nice one about the size of the one you showed. Have had a little bad luck with these. Mainly from pests like scale. Unfortunately my matucana became a midnight snack for a mouse!! Looked like a mostly eaten apple! And yes , I would have to agree , Echinopsis subdenudata is great for any beginner!! When I lived in Tucson Arizona, we had them in a flower bed in front of our porch. And I saw snow on them at least twice. Great plants! And great video!!! Thanks for sharing Daz!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, to the UK and Singapore, have a wonderful day!!! Peace, Love, Plants!!!✌💖🌵🏵🌴🌺🪴🌹🌲🌷🌳💐😃👍
Thank you so much, Clyde. Ferocactus is actually one I’ve not had any beasties go on since having them, yet anyway touch wood! Yeah the subdenudata is a great beginner cactus, tolerant of all kinds of conditions. Still don’t think they could live outside here in the UK though haha. Thank you for watching and commenting as always my friend. Have a wonderful Sunday from Edith & myself to you and Deb 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
Agree with this list. Great video, so informative, very helpful for the beginners. But on my experience, because I try to keep everything out in the greenhouse, I don’t have much luck with Asterias, even with small Myriostigma, they always leave me. Ferocactus is easy but mealies top favourite amongst my collection. I only have one tiny matucana Polzii, still alive in the greenhouse. And yes Baldianum as well as mihanovichii are the ones very easy in everything especially the Baldianum, and who doesn’t have subdenudata in their collection. Loads all the time in any shop, so easy to get from wilko or any other shop. Thank you for always giving us wonderful videos. Good night 🌵💚
Thank you so much, Kath 😊 Yeah in our climate I’d always recommend bringing asterias indoors for the winter. How is the v-type doing though? There’s quite a few more easy care ones so we might do another top 5 at some point. Thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful day and new week from Edith & myself to you and Phil 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
Well done, as always, Sweetheart! 😘 It was a bit hard choosing which cacti should be in this list but then again, based on all the elements in our growing conditions, these ticked all the requirements. Loved the footages and the macros and of course, watching the video with you. These plants will really inspire the newbies to try growing them. Maybe not all at the same time. Slowly but surely will be the advice. 🥰 These plants still inspire me especially when I stare at them and appreciate their beauty. ❤️🤗🥰😘💚
Thank you so much my love 🥰 Yeah there could have been several others on this list, but we’ll definitely make another. Enjoyed watching with you as always too babe. Thank you for all your love, support and encouragement ❤️🤗😘🥰❤️
@@Cactimania Thanks! I think I am risking some of my newer plants in the unheated section (I have not kept them over winter yet as I bought them last May), but I have had success with other over winter in the summerhouse and then they flower their socks off as a result of the chill. Once set up, I will have a digital thermometer in their to track the temperature over time.
Thank you so much, Claire 😊 Glad you enjoyed. Thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful day and new week from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
The blooms are amazing!😍 They are ALL absolutely gorgeous!🥰 You do such a beautiful job photographing and videotaping your plants too.📸 Brilliant video!🤩 Sending you hugs and well wishes to both of you from across the miles!🌹
Thank you so much, Amanda 😊 Glad you enjoyed. Thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful day and rest of the weekend from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜
Great video and I have several of the cacti you mentioned. I would say my top 5 easy beginner cacti are Mammillaria beneckei, M. elongata, Parodia ottonis, Lobivia arachnacantha and Gymnocalycium densii.
I got a matucana polzii earlier this summer, full of pups now. Question is: should i wait to pull them off to spring or will they start growing, here during the winter time? Or does it even matter. Ty in advance.
If they’re already a good size you can remove them. Especially if you’re wanting the mother plant to flower. If these particular cacti and full of pups they’re less inclined to bloom. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜

I've not seen astrophytum asterias in my local garden center. Thanks for sharing a nice video once again.
I haven’t yet in the UK, but it probably won’t be long before they do start showing up. In Singapore though it’s a different story, widely available from nurseries. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
@@Cactimania I can't wait to buy them when they show up in the market.
Nice wee video mate...loved the time-lapse at the end 👍👍
Cheers mate. Was about time I did a video like this 👍🏻🌵☀️🌼🏜

Esses cactos são um sonho , admiro pelas suas simetrias . Muito lindos . Todos raros pra mim já que não vejo desses na região onde moro !
Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
Nice ones. I would add mammillaria Gracillis Snowcap as one of the easiest. Doesn't die with a bit more water, doest burn in full sun, does well in less sun, any soil, easy rooting.. Nice look.
Yes that one certainly deserves an honourable mention. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜

I cannot wait to get my new glasshouse set up with the cacti in... I'll rewatch this then and use to add to my stock.
I’ve seen your new glasshouse, it’s an absolute beauty. Would love one that size one day. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
