Aloe Gasteria & Haworthia Collection |

[@morrisparkintheozarks6831]

Mesmerizing!!! Your presentation CANNOT be beat!!! I so enjoyed all these awesome plants! Wow! Where would I start!!! Some of them I recognized " hey , I've seen that plant before!! Hahaha! Glad they are doing so well for you!! All your plants you sent are doing great !! With one exception. And I'm not sure why. I've seen this happen in both Euphorbias and Cactus. The plant doesn't rot. It just starts to get lighter in color and then like in a 48 hour period , dries up from the tip down.🤔🤨😧😞 I've had this happen to one of my cereus spirals, a couple of months after it came in from Italy. I had ordered two, and one dried up. I have a Euphorbia tortilis that has had a problem this way for a few years. I've changed soil, sprayed for pests and fungi ( rust) fed it like all the others. But still it never grows, and every once in a while , a branch dries up. I,cut it off and wait for the next one. Very disappointing, especially when I can't figure out what it is that does this. This one is the Euphorbia psudocactus. I am surprised at this one. These are normally hardy plants without problems. Makes me even more frustrated. But every one else is doing Great!!! You have shown some great species , and varieties of them!! Some I've never seen before!! Have you ever shown any of your plants? They are worthy for awards!!! Some you just can't stop looking at !!! Great view!!! Thanks very much for sharing!!! Hope you guys are warm! We are in a winter storm warning ⚠️ for our area. Snow, ice sleet freezing rain!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, to the UK and Singapore, have a great day!!! Peace, Love, Plants!!!✌💖🌵🏵🌴🌺🪴🌹🌲🌷🌳😃👍

[@Cactimania]

Thank you so much, Clyde 😊 Yeah all the ones you sent are doing good, although I’ve noticed the purple people eater likes quite a bit of light to keep it compact. Sorry the Euphorbia pseudocactus isn’t doing well for you, that’s strange as the mother plant the cutting came from is doing fine. I’d like to show some of my plants in the future, now I’m a member of the BCSS that might be possible in the future. We’ve had some bad wind storms here this past week, one after the other and today it’s raining heavy. Still pretty chilly here at night, too. Thank you for watching and commenting as always my friend. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself to you and Deb 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜

Amazing collection. Both the collection and the presentation are great to watch. The level of detail makes me feel I'm standing face-to-face in front of these plants and contemplating the details much like contemplating the color refractions of gems. Recently a somewhat new variety of scale bugs has been ravaging my Haworthias and the bugs are not affected by pesticides. With time, I managed to find out that root bound plants (especially small plants kept in small pots) with lots of bright and some direct sunlight may become stressed but mostly keep the scales at bay. This has made me consider expanding my collection once again. I may still do it carefully though and will monitor my progress as I'm slowly adding new plants.

[@Cactimania]

Thank you so much 😊 Sorry you’ve had pest problems with your Haworthia. I’ve had a few in the past, mainly root mealybug. Thank you for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜

[@sabinpantis4149]

Those are nice plants.cut the worm castings,cut the heat,more light and the will stay compact. I did this mistake before.now I'm full mineral with a dab of osmocote in the mix,a lot of natural and artificial light,cold at night and earm during the day and they look stunning. Those "attenuata" are actually "fasciata". Keep up the good work! Cheers!

[@Cactimania]

I think most of them are pretty compact. I’ve tried 100% mineral mixes in the past, it just doesn’t work for me in my environment unfortunately. The difference between attenuata and fasciata is fasciata has smooth inner leaves without tubercles, as these have the tubercles on the inner leaves I’ve always assumed they were attenuata. Most of those are sold here as fasciata when in fact they’re not. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜

Thank you for your valuable inputs. May I know what your growing conditions are in your part of the world please? Temperature, light intensity/lux, humidity and your watering schedule please. We’re curious to see your collection. 🥰

[@sabinpantis4149]

@@edithcoliagrandis I'm from Romania,zone 6.during winter I keep them in a unheated room near a large window on a rack.temperature during the day can fluctuate between 25-30,15-20(on cloudy days);during the night it doesn't go below 10⁰C.humidity it's between 50% and 65%.each "floor' is "equipped" with 4x18(1200 lux)watts cold light fluorescent tubes 6 hours per day and about 6 days of natural light.I water every 2-3 weeks or whenever is needed for some of them.you can see a small part of my collection on my Instagram.

Oh WOWSERS GALORE Daz :-D what an INCREDIBLE complete tour of your BEAUTIFUL Aloe, Gasteria and Haworthia collection, you have the most AMAZING collection and this video is so beautifully filmed and made too, stunning close up filming, it was like the plants were right in front of me in 3D, absolutely AWESOME, and I agree with Ana that BBC and National Geographic should snap you up

[@Cactimania]

Thank you so much, Lyn 😊 I thought it was a nicer way of showing off the collection filming it this way, sometimes I like to let the plants do the talking haha.

[@Cactimania]

Thank you so much, David 😊 Yeah the Spider White got a little grumpy for a while after it got repotted, only just now started to look semi-decent again. Maughanii and parksiana turn up on eBay now and then, and Ian’s Haworthia has quite a few maughanii hybrids for sale, including two of the ones I showed in this video, ‘Shriotae’ and ‘Aurora’. Oh there’s quite a few I’m wanting haha, can’t add anymore just yet though, got plenty with all the hybrid seedlings at the moment, and just recently cross pollinated some more, but more will definitely be added to the collection later in the year.

Do you fertilize them? How do you clean the leaves? Thank you

[@Cactimania]

I do fertilise them during the growing season. I will either use osmocote or a water soluble fertiliser for cactus and succulents by Chempak, but at half strength. At the moment though I’m using worm castings as part of their mix which is enough to sustain them for a good 6 to 8 months. As for cleaning the leaves I just use a soft brush on them once a week.
