the rabbits here just love these. They are eaten to the roots the day after planting. Protecting them keeps them alive until the protection is removed.

Hi Mick, your videos are great - thanks for sharing them! Can you pollinate a flower with pollen from the same plant - or do you need two separate plants? Thanks!

I'd like to try pollinating a creeping Sedum species like Album, Sexangulare, Hispanicum, Lydium or similar with stored pollen from a crinkle leafed Echeveria 'Cheyenne'. Any tips by any chance? Are Sedums, Echeverias and Graptopetalums even generally compatible or is that rather the exception?

@mickssucculents4 ай бұрын
@soji-yeunmochi-con1162 Hey, that's all good 🙂👍 we use a Succulent and Cacti potting mix. It has much better drainage than other mixes and has been good for Lithops. Hope that helps 👍
@soji-yeunmochi-con11624 ай бұрын
I don't have access to those, are those readily mixed? Can I use masonry sand and gravel as water can easily go through it, I'm really sorry for these questions, I'm really a newbie
@mickssucculents4 ай бұрын
@soji-yeunmochi-con1162 that's ok. Most nursery/garden centres should have a Succulent and Cacti potting mix. If you can't, then try using washed river sand and gravel will work. If you can add some sort of compost to the sand and gravel, that would be ideal 🙂👍

Can you please suggest shade cloth for 30-35 °C (86-95 °F) Summers? Based on your video I am thinking of 50% white as I need it for outdoor succulents (mainly Sedums, Echeverias, Crassulas and Pachyphytums) without a greenhouse. Spring is only 20-25 °C (68-77 °F), do I need a different one for Spring or do I need any?
