My ponytails... Staying indoors now for the duration of desert summer 😎.

High of 110° with low of 87° and that is just the beginning 😂.

I was just checking out your Planta. Need to go back to finish. But I am so jealous of your beautiful healthy succulents. They are amazing. Many years ago I lived in Arizona also but wasn’t into plant care then. I missed out.

Phil, eh you're not really missing much. It's a lot of work for me to keep them looking compact, moving in and out depending on season. And.. The electric bill (adding all grow lights, etc) 😂 you know how hot it gets here during summertime 🔥. Thanks for liking them, I appreciate it a lot ❤️.

They do well in 100f heat in a south facing garden in Cali inland empire. I leave mine outside and theyre getting quite big

California weather is awesome, I have a family at Irvine and I'm drooling whenever I see succulents outdoor and see them grow big to their full potential (I get cuttings from them sometimes, lol). AZ is extreme and even though I have a 50% mesh to cover them, I just didn't want to risk it. I did plan on experimenting them leaving outside this year but in the end, I got scared 😂. We get up to 125° with low of 100°. I know they will just sleep but... They're just so beautiful to take my chances 😭.

Such a beautiful collection! Also I grew up next door to Surprise! ❤️☀️Wasn’t much of a plant person until I left but I dream about the succulent garden I would have if I was still there. Enjoy! 🫶

Thank you so much! It's compliments like these that makes all the hard work worthwhile ❤️.
