Rubbery Sensory Plant: A Gardening Adventure

How it’s kind of like rubbery, like super soft and rubbery. Yeah, it is.

You know, you just wanna touch it. Yeah, touch the seat.

It doesn’t hurt it to touch it, right? I know you’re not supposed to touch succulents.

Well, not the ones with the powdery coating. Yeah, those are fine. And those are on the same exact water as everything else America.

Like a sensory plant for kids. You know what I mean? Or for me.

It’s out here.

Either just out. You’re touching it.

I just think it’s a really cool plant when it can be a succulent like this and take all the water that everything else gets. Yeah, and not care. It’s a very adaptable plant. It’s also very adaptable to different light. It can take full on sun, which it does take on more of a yellow tinge, kind of like the Sunburst locust thing.

Look over here.

Yeah, that’s. I guess it’ll come around morning sun in more shady areas, it turns a little bit more light. Yeah, which I actually kind of like less.

Lemon. Yeah, it’s like it’s more lime in the shade and a little more lemon, which looks.

Similar to me. Yeah, it’s really pretty. And this last container, I’m not sure it’s put on any growth at all. I’ll tell you one thing, I am not impressed with person Shields at all. Look at these. So just all burning up. This gets Protection from, not from wind. So maybe that’s our problem. Who’s eating all these? Well, probably earwigs. I need to get some bait in here. So this is probably the worst looking pot. This one’s gonna be voted least likely to succeed. Probably.

I think the containers that I did pretty much exactly like this up by the balcony doors look better than this one. They are more protected. So maybe that’s what that one has gone for it. But yeah, I honestly didn’t know that these were being eaten until right this very minute. So I haven’t baited at all in this container. I don’t think the begonists have really put on much growth. Again, I think that could be heat related. But the Persian Shield, I’m about ready to pop him out and put some Nelson. Yeah, because they just are not performing anywhere. I put them in those other parts, I look tiny bit better than these. And then up by our back kitchen entrance where I put them in the ground, I get a lot more sun. A tax successful son. And they look horrible. So, you know, it was an experiment for me and it’s an experiment that now I don’t have to, I don’t know, try again. Should had tried at some point. Well, you know, not every.

Plant works in every area.

True. But I need to go get bait. Maybe I should do that right now. Yeah, hold on. Okay. Bug and slide killer. This is what I use in situations like this. It’s just like this little grain and this is good for snails and slugs, earwigs, cutworms. There’s other things on the label, but typically when I see this kind of damage, it’s usually airwigs that’s our main culprit. So I’m just going to spread it around these plants on the soil surface, and it lasts for quite a long time, like several weeks, but I’m gonna have to check up on it. I think we should run up to the pots that I planted this other, the same arrangement in, check those to see if those are being eaten as well. It’s.

Organic, right? What’s the.

Active? It’s a iron phosphate and Spinoza. Okay. Okay, let’s go check the other ones. Quick. Oh, I guess quick update on these right here. Play in the Blue Salvia, Super Tunia, Saffron Finch and the Super Bina Cobalt and Super Bina Sparkling Amethyst. I think this is a super pretty blend. Have plants right here. The other one’s doing great too. That one doesn’t get quite as much light. So I’m thrilled to see everything’s looking robust and full of color. Yeah, looks great. My word. Okay, so the same plants. See, the Persian seals look a little less dressed up here and the wire rides going nuts. Yeah, that’s interesting. Isn’t that like it’s climbing? Yeah, I haven’t helped it. I’m just helping it right now, but I haven’t helped it up to this point.

Are you gonna bait or is it not.

Necessary? I don’t think it’s necessary. I don’t see, look at these. Look how much better these look. Yeah, no insect damage. And I’m not gonna bait just to bait.

Isn’t it interesting how, you know, somebody might plant some of these things and just be like, oh, junk plants or something, you know, but it’s like, it just depends on even in the same garden 50 yards away, right? You can have really different luck with it.

Yeah, and this like the Persian Shield here, you can see it’s even put on more growth. So maybe these will kind of come out of the funk, and maybe those will as well. But I don’t like things that take most of the season to come out of their shell. I like things to be looking good, pretty much from the first day because otherwise there’s not like a tremendous amount of point. Yeah, in planting them if you don’t get to enjoy them for more than half the season. So anyway, it is a pretty color, though. I really want them to do well. Anyway, guys, that is gonna do it for today’s video. We just wanted to take some time, walk through these containers and make sure to keep you updated on their growth. We had a overcast moment, which doesn’t happen very often. And I think that’s the only thing that’s gonna make this back ground even slightly doable. So again, try to ignore the dead grass behind it. Imagine a nice, green, lush pasture behind it, because that’s what would be there one day. Maybe.

Not next year, maybe not even the year after that, but one day.

At least there’s some pretty things to distract your eye. Thank you again for watching. We will see you in the next video. Bye. This is SAP that I cannot get off my hands. I need to go inside and use semantics. I look filthy.
