Brilliant video, I'd love to have a go of planting opuntia outdoors

great collection!

As someone who’s likes to push the limits of what can be grown where I understand the amount of work he has to put into having success. Great job👍

Brilliant idea to get some other growers talking about their gardens and their "gardening journeys" on your channel Kris. Like a turbo charged Monty's viewers gardens on GW.

Thanks for watching and enjoying the video. I like the range of Agaves that Joel has planted out

@@YorkshireKRIS Yes Joel's done an incredible job, particularly bearing in mind the prevailing climate in the region he lives. Just goes to prove we should all keep pushing those boundaries.

Inspiring planting in a Northern climate. Brilliant video. Loved it

A true pioneer of exotic gardening-I like the number of species he is trying and his hybridisation techniques. This is how exotic gardening goes forward and benefits us all-a wonderful video Kris.

It's a great to visit other people's gardens for inspiration

Another great video Kris. Arid plants aren't usually my favorite but this was really interesting and gave me a few things that I am interested to try!

Brighouse West Yorkshire. Its a fantastic collection

for me Opuntia Phaecantha is one of the hardiest-it survives very wet conditions. Joel should be on GW
