It’s called California Texas Centers, it’s in East Pasadena, which is like 13 14 minutes away from where I live. It’s my first time here, and I am so so excited some of you. If you follow me on Instagram, you knew that I just woke up one day and decided I’m crazy over cacti so here I am so my channel so far has been focusing a lot of tropical plants. I’m beautiful, washed foliage, but I hope you guys can keep an open mind and share some love for these spiky babies. What do I know about cactus pretty much nothing, but I still, you know, use my very limited knowledge. Try to explain to you. What this is what that is and give you like usual? I’ll talk about the prices, but please, please don’t give me a hard time about things. That’s that rum or or things. I don’t know, because I really don’t know anything, but this is a beautiful place. I still want to take you guys on a tour. We have some beautiful gavi’s here and, of course. I think this is a Mexican fencepost. I love this guy. It just a line is so clean. I don’t know, just the whole shape of it. It’s no wonder why they call it A Mexican fence post. Because, you know, they just look like senses. When you put them up together, they can grow. I think they can grow like 20 feet tall, so they literally use it as fences, which is really cool. It’s kind of cute. That’s probably like a good size for an apartment. I think I can handle that size. We have a dog so I can’t get a huge one. I could probably get one like, and put it on our table or something because quickly. Blinky parrots are flowering.
