Creating a Cactus, Euphorbia & Succulent Garden

Our front yard garden consisted of overgrown shrubs. They were quite ugly and added no interest to the yard. We tore out the shrubs and planted cordyline australis, euphorbia tirucalli (sticks on fire), crassula undulatifolia, opuntia snow fuzzy, and brought in two large pots containing Mangave and othonna capensis (ruby necklace). Once all of the plants have grown a bit larger, I think the area will look great. All in all, I think the look is much improved.

Hey Sue, your yard looks like a Botanical garden❤ all the different areas are so beautiful. I know ya'll put in a lot of work but you have a home to be proud of. Love it😊

Thank you so much Laura! I wish we would have planted succulents and cacti in our garden years ago. Hope all is well with you and that the rest of your week is a good one!

The new garden looks great! As do all of your garden areas!

[@seniorsuecacti]

Thank you so much, Cheryl. There is still a lot of work to do. More plants to buy and always more weeds to pull.😎

Looks really nice! What a difference in the way it looks after taking out the bushes, and love the color of the new ones! And$20 apiece is a great price! All your areas are very pretty!

I agree, the overgrown bushes took up a lot of space and they were boring looking. Thank you, Patricia!

That was a lot of work, but it looks great. Those two new plants give a little pop of color. I also like to divide plants I have and try them in different places. I’m working on moving hostas to a garden where things aren’t growing well because of the shade. Gardening is always a work in progress. Your gardens are beautiful. Thanks for sharing. See you in the next video.

Hostas are so pretty. I wish I could grow them here. It is too hot and dry, plus I do not have enough shade. Dividing is a great way to multiply your plants. Have fun gardening. Thank you for watching, Sandy.

It looks beautiful Sue ❤ I would use rocks instead of mulch in the new garden. It will match the rest of your gardens, and will last so much longer than mulch, plus you won't have to deal with fungal issues from the mulch staying wet too long...plus it bleaches out too quickly.

Thank you so much Barbie. I think you are right, using rock would be better than mulch.
