How I wish I can visit your place in Australia. You have a wide varieties of cacti. So beautiful 😍

I've had every type of garden ... as I grow older I have a deep appreciation for a well-planned cactus garden with Exotics from all over the world ! very beautiful video!

This man is taking good care of his cactuses they look SHARP.

Amazing, absolutely wonderful. I love Cacti also. His knowledge about this must be priceless...

Fascinating and rewarding hobby.

Amazing clean collection of cacti. Very dedicated and knowledgeable gentleman. Great video 🌵☀️

Fascinating, would be great to have an update when they are flowering.

May him, his knowledge and his fantastic collection live on! Wow!

I live in an area that has a winter that lasts a few months and we can get zero degree temps. A person in a gardening group gave me a prickly pear pad. I ignored it and left it for a bit, finally got around to planting it. A few weeks later.... big pretty yellow flowers. I'm told it will survive outside in the winter!! So cool, really cheap to grow.

What an amazing collection. I, like you, started my collection when I was 9. I had my first greenhouse when I was 14 ! I'm now 77, but no longer have my collection of over 2000 plants due to divorce !! I no longer have the room now. I however have a very large Echinocactus Grusonii that takes some strength to move. Recently started a collection of Lithops, fascinating plants but temperamental . I didn't have the luxury of the climate you do, I live in the Midlands in the UK.

Martin Forrester, losing your huge collection of plants that you were so intimately familiar with must have been absolutely devastating. I'm so sorry for your loss, seriously. It's like the death of a loved one. I'm glad to hear you've found a new plant interest. Those lithops are some funny little guys.

Wow! The King of Cactus 🌵 👑

Lesson learned from gramps: people tend to say it's time to stop. Him saying so why do stop? I salute you gramps your right why stop? If your enjoying what you loved? Your hardwork pays off look at those beautiful cacti it's amazing that those cactus is older than me imagine one of the cactus is 70 years old 😲 . Being a young one inspired me to plant now and watch my plants grow like what you did and tell the new generation in the future how I managed to grow that lovely plant. Thank you gramps. 😊💕

What an absolute gorgeous garden! I just started my porch container garden and the cacti have certainly become some of my favorites, have 16 little ones so far and planning on adding more. But I have to say, how wonderful it must be to wander by all those giants! It’ll take a lot of time before any of mine reach those heights, but it’ll be worth the wait.

Off the charts. The huge Ferocactus are only for lottery winners. Some of those species I didn't know got that large. Good sized,but he's got them tree sized. The greenhouse must knock decades off of waiting for them. Not that what he has outdoors is second rate,not by a longshot.
