This is amazing! John and Kelly are proof that cacti don’t only grow in the desert. With proper selection and care, they can be grown even in very cold places. I’m sharing this video. Well done! 👍🏼 🌵☕️

I was amazed when I went to the botanical gardens in Denver - which is in zone 5 - and they had an entire area of cacti - I couldn't believe it! And now, I learned something else that floored me - there are 4 cactus species that are native to Canada??? Wow! This cactus garden is incredible - great tour, John & Jason!

Living in California, cacti are a great choice for our weather. I do have one desert plant in particular (Sotol) that has a lot of weeds as it is too dangerous to try and clean up around. Like working on a lumber saw while it is switched on. However, just ordered one of those fishhook pullers! Great tip, thanks.

I live in northern Kentucky in USA we get true 4 seasons. good amount of rain and snow in the cold winters. I have opuntias planted in my garden in mounded pea gravel and full sun. They thrive. The pads are bigger than dinner plates and they've grown so fast that I think I'll have to cut them back or they'll be shaking people's hands as they approach my front door lol.

The hi tech, sophisticated, and complicated method of propagation had me quite concerned, but after many rewinds and careful studying, I think I am ready to give it a try.😂 I actually have Prickly Pear and shrub cactus that grew quite enormous on the coffee farm where I was before. In fact, the Prickly Pear stalks were between 6 & 8 inches in diameter. I will be transferring as much of those plants as I can in the next month or so. They will grow very well up here as long as the drainage is substantial. Most of the moisture is in mist and light rain form, but when it does decide to actually rain, it can be several inches in just a few minutes. In November, just after I officially moved up here, it rained over 12 inches in about 56 minutes. Just a little sprinkle.😂😂😂😂 Fortunately, everything is sloped naturally, so most of the work is erosion control and moisture retention where it is needed, like gutters and ditches for water collection and holes in the lava for run-off relief. Cacti are certainly a unique family of plants and a very affective hedge for unwanted traffic.😁🤙

That's amazzing! Maybe I'll order some. Hey a while back I watched one of your vids and you listed good online seed companies, do you think you could one day do a video of good online plant/seed suppliers for Canada? Soooo many times I've been shopping on a website filling my cart, only to find out its American and they don't ship to Canada.

??? at end. Loved the yellow swallowtail enjoying the flowers. It's a lovely display of cacti. I'm a new subscriber after watching the ant episodes. My ??? about Borax for ants are: Is the Eggo just thawed out? Maybe it's a piece off a toasted one? I have a ton of ants eating canned and dried food I give feral cats. They appear within seconds of putting the food down now and I have cracks in the concrete but I never see if that's where they are going down. I'm going to put out a cool whip container for them. I was going to put some dry food in it but the cats will probably try to get to it so I have some frozen Eggo Pancakes on hand I'll try first. Hoping it works. I'm glad you don't go on and on with so many words just to make long videos like some channels. Straight and to the point is how I like it. I can understand these tours being longer-more like a mini show for us to enjoy. Informative and lots of eye candy.

I would love to hear more about that golden barrel's setup. Mainly, if in any way it allows for the roots to grow out of the pot and into dirt in any way or if its more of a form factor/ease of planting to have it double container like that

No, the roots can't grow out of the pot, or it would defeat the feature of being able to remove and store the cactus indoors over the cold season.
