Ever wondered where the plants in your succulent garden ACTUALLY come from? Better yet, what about learning how to grow succulents from a master succulent plant grower who produces millions per year?
In today’s video, I travel up to the Plants by Post nursery in San Jose, CA to talk with Dylan Toms, a botanist and master succulent cultivator. You’ll learn how to water succulents, how to propagate succulents, and the many intricacies of their care that you WON’T find online.

What succulent topics should I make a video on next?
I'm pretty sure God is the god of succulents.
Ugh I’ve tried to propagate my succulent leaves and I’ve never even seen them get to the root stage! I don’t put them in too direct sunlight and I never water the leaves but they just scab and rot. Any ideas?
Every minute an add, why tho??
succulents are always an interesting topic. trying to grow a santa rita prickly pear so this helps! going to get some fertilizer for it <3
Where is this nursery?
Where did your shirt in the first clip come from?
My all Succulent are catching mealy bugs … How to avoid as it's tiny Succulent very difficult to clean
Him: tosses plants Easy.
Me: …*blinks* succulent dies
What I'd give as a novice succulent enthusiast to sit down and have a conversation with this guy in this greenhouse.
I have owned my chrysula for over 25 years and it’s never flowered yet! Tip on how to encourage it to throw a bloom or two would be great xxx
Just from South Africa (we don't have a Sahara ) That's far, far north of here.
We do have savanna and succulent Karoo though.
I guess when u have too many PER species, u can handle them rough. Toss them around n pull them up with pot together lol
Thank you so much for this!! Super helpful 🙂
what is the best grow light to use in the winter?
Not a fan of this video. Suck-u-lent god is probably a pot head.
It starts at 11:05 🙂
Try not to talk over the guy you're interviewing. You're giving him a platform to talk then interjecting lol
if someone man handled my plants like this- they would be planted on top of the body fr
Amazing Video.
Loved this grower but the maker of this video let a potentially knowledge rich and amazing succulent resource video go to shit!! camera man was not paid enough or obviously doesn't have that succulent pull….enough so where It showcased their lack of passion/love for succs so loud wow..said.."god of succulents" was a legit dude and I cringed Everytime the creater (black coat) let his ego interrupt this pro. Like don't give us your input sry bout your ego he let u in his nursery and gave u his time. So shut the ego up enough to just let this amazing succulent grower share his knowledge. u make the channel, we know u have more videos where your get to be the star but sadly couldn't help but just over power and interrupt to feel sufficient I suppose… who knows … mostly irrelevant fluff . Bummer how u interrupt the f outta this dude . Intimidation and ego made u a rude turd. could of showcased an info rich treasure trove of a video.
u interrupted the guy so much that he was kinda done it shows bad and I'm so sad he had to be silenced in trade for the info u felt was most needed . Shitty and we could have learned so much more ..go home and water your roses…think I might be outta your jurisdiction bruh
I know İm late to the party but İ really need your t shirt lol. cool vid
Very interesting. Would like to know what he uses for pest control?
Anarchy
Where did succulents originally originated from
Rewatch this, you are a pretty bad interviewer. Consistently interrupting to input your two cents and waiting closed lipped to speak. We want to hear what the person is saying as the expert what we don't want is you to talk over and interrupt and to watch you try to keep your mouth shut.
WOW! Succulent Heaven!
