Echeveria Frilly Moving Day | Vlog #166 - Succulents & Coffee with Liz

I was just about to step outside and guess what? It's raining! Is it forecast rain today? I don't know. Should I get an umbrella or I can't hold my coffee umbrella. This is actually my bad arm. It's really sore right now so I've been taking it easy in working in the garden even though my plants need attention. I have to look after moi first before I could do this because if I become incapacitated they are all gonna die. Today I just watch a young man marrying an alpaca. Anyway these plants here I haven't looked at this area nor have I watered this. Look at that. That's so slow growing that Victorinox variegated. Such a slow growing plant and Echeveria pretty in pink or Echeveria marpin I think that's what it's called. And that looks very similar to my cultivar that is called Rosal in here. My Rosal is still so much more bigger. This is actually grown from leaves of an Echeveria Monroe. It looks like pretty in pink or marpin but the size is, look at that, it's quite big even though it's dry that needs to be watered. I need to clean it up tonight to well remember to clean it up and also all my Freelies here this year the Freelies are not doing very well in this section because Freelies loves the sun they love the sun so I decided to bring a couple out in the front and slowly introduce them to the sunlight and even one I've cut off here my Paul Bunyan look chopped off and there's still another Paul Bunyan there that needs to be chopped off hang on so I'm just gonna chop chop chop because it's all like dry there that's dead so and hang on I'll just cut this off okay ah you can see the roots growing that means it's telling me I don't want to be here anymore I want to have a life apart from this life that you've given me which is all wrinkly and dried up I want to have start a new life somewhere else so dramatic anyway I'll put this I'll show you where the other one is now this is my other Paul Bunyan look it's growing bumps I only chopped you off like a couple of weeks ago didn't I so now this one it didn't have bumps before and now the bumps look oh now so the size okay I can't my wasabi have to move you sorry wasabi this one on the left I stuck in there two weeks ago and was almost the same size actually it looks worse than this one because it's got more wrinkly leaves than this one this one looks better that's why I did not even notice it now it's dried up so you can see the leaves all wrinkled now all I did is just put a hole into the soil even this one I just planted that a couple of days ago I think never mind because okay I go like this even though I just freshly cut that because the soil is fairly dry ish now it's going to get wet but anyway so now this one now on the left is smaller than that one on the right both of them now they're going to start growing and then in future videos we're going to compare and see what happens and anyway it's starting to rain but I'm going to show you what am I going to show you I was just going to cruise around and show you the different progress oh my string of hearts the variegated one I took it out here because it was being affected by this is actually the good one was growing at the back no mealybug the other one yeah oh the rain's getting heavier got affected by mealybug so I sprayed it with my methyl spray so you can see some remnants of mealybug there and I put it out here so look there's still like leftover but no more mealybug they're all moved on and I put it out here in the shade it's sort of open but my camera's wet I have to go inside sorry okay I got my brolly back so I'm gonna walk in the rain again so this area now can I do a much to do about a lot of things video this is like let's talk about lots of stuff I'm slowly cleaning this up so and if some of you think you're not cleaning it up fast enough well sorry I've got excuses so and now I can see again or I can walk again through here and also I can see my plants it's all dead that one is sedum robertingtum that's dead ones you can see some remnants of it that hasn't been watered for a long time that one is cool view and the hercules look how beautiful the hercules are gorgeous look at that they got beautiful red tips especially this one see look how beautiful that is isn't it so when there's stress and this one here what are you gusto and uh something this is the one with the long name that I can't seem to remember uh bite the comb something okay here's a tomb sedum here's a tomb variety bite the comb fast growing plant and look at all of them the state of my plants here but over here the bamboo has taken over and my begonia is also flowering that's an orange begonia so I need to remove this bamboo I just hope it doesn't go to the neighbors because that would be disastrous but I am clearing out this bamboo all this bamboo is going to be gone but I can't do it all in one go I have to do it slowly and also repurpose all those bamboo so which means this is a major job clearing this all out removing all those pots I have to do it slowly or else I'm going to injure myself more and hello Mr. Owl you have fallen off and then I straighten you up you need to be redone again you're hanging off on one leg it's a slowly taking shape all I need to do is remove all that bits and pieces that's there on the ground and put my fake grass there well first of all I have to poison all of this grass and then put the fake grass or something process it first so it's a lot of work but anyway look I got some bamboos that I chop chop chop and that's habi's um lead sheets of lead that we use for making sinkers for fishing so we do make everything and that's a problem so anyway this one now because I put some of my cactus or cacti that's over there in that sort of semi-shaded area and I put them here transfer them here and I don't want them to burn so I just installed this uh lace curtain for now hang on oh my goodness so I got a few cactus there so if I just dump it there straight away without look my penis cactus hello dicky now dicky cactus uh now dick the short for Richard dick never mind anyway so I can't even see so if I just put it in there that would get burned easily so I slowly acclimatize them so I put a lace curtain for that one and slowly I'm gonna remove it when the days like today it's actually good for removing that so they can acclimatize now on the bottom here I put a couple of euphobias I did not bother to cover it only those two pots that euphobia I think tetragona or polygona and then this one also the variegated one and they're still fine and that one my ributia I put it here and I still have to work around this area and also that oh look when I bought this I see it in the original pot and look how many it's growing babies everywhere so that needs to be repotted into a much bigger pot oi cactus flowering oh red flower cactus I don't have a red one yet oh my goodness you are beautiful did I ever have you before I don't know but isn't that gorgeous so anyway that's I was gonna put them here in these pots but now I decided that I'm gonna put them at the front I got a big open area there that I can put them in because these are quite frost hardy so uh I don't know what you call gymno caliceum or something like that they are so there are different forms and all of these three I got them from Ikea before and they're just growing on peat moss and look they don't need special cactus soil they're growing on the peat moss and that tells me that they can handle a lot of different soil and this one's got babies look I really need to look at babies coming out everywhere I really need to remove you and put you on a better place I have a couple of pots here this is I think something snow angel or snow fingers or whatever you are a red angel dragonfly pacipitum and this has been growing upstairs but it's just dry so I've taken it down and look at what happens so when the soil is dry the plant will make water to feed its babies look it's growing babies on that side there so it's trying to feed its babies and saying here have a drink and that's why it will rot so they will rot when they're given too much water and they will also rot if not given enough water this soil mix is actually my cat litter soil mix and it can handle a lot of watering but I kept them dry now this papyrus that came from my covered area I have to move this one to this spot here next to my swing this baccarus was growing at the back well it was struggling out there and then I took it out this was actually half the size of this about a month ago or six weeks ago actually to be specific and I thought it's going to die so I thought I'll bring it out here and it can burn baby burn and it did not burn and then it was actually growing on the opposite side there where it's sort of part shaded and then now I put it here where it gets morning sun midday sun and shaded or filtered afternoon sun and then now it's growing really well now compared to this one look at my hand so look how big that is now and it should be bigger now but because of the frost we have here in Canberra it keeps dying back and now it's growing again so this is now where I'm going to place all my free leaves now if they're going to die they're going to die but I plan to cover this area in winter and I'm going to make a special cage for them but that's in future videos so anyway for now this papus rose I can't really put that there directly because it's going to burn from the sun so I'm going to put this at the back here to slowly acclimatize it and I have to come back to that later on and clean up or pick out those dry leaves inside that so anyway guys that's all I've got for this video so now I'm going to go back inside and finish off my coffee that's already probably cold this is yesterday's harvest of strawberry and blueberries that I forgot to eat this one now I need to plant this in the garden spring onion and beetroot was going to make some salad but then hubby decided he doesn't want some salad he wants some coleslaw it's getting soft because it needs to be consumed or normally what I do with this is plant this in the garden or put it some soil and then harvest it as I go so as with this leftover spring onion and the budgie in the background is talking on top of me but doesn't matter hey baby pea come here Pedro so this is mommy's third coffee and that is down the coast fishing this one I cooked this last night this is Chinese New Year so this is half of look I cook half of it this is like rice cake many happy returns rice cake I've beaten some eggs cut it in small slices and I dip it in and then fry it this is the leftover from last night from my midnight snack what's up what's up baby pea what's he doing baby pea ah oh hi you want some no you don't want me here kiss mommy okay you want you want see he's feeling better there you go there you go baby peepee now mommy's gotta go clean up while daddy's not around
