Plant & Pottery Shopping at Berridge Nurseries | Phoenix, AZ

Hello my cactus-shopping-loving friends!  We are back with another shopping video.  This time we head to Berridge Nurseries in Phoenix, AZ.  Berridge has a long history in the Phoenix area having been founded in 1938, and it is still a family operated business today.  The plants they carry mostly fall into the landscaping category but they often have treasures to be found for the cactus and succulent collector.  They also have a large assortment of pottery and decorations for the garden.  It's always super fun to check out their latest inventory.

By the way, Berridge holds a significant role in how I got into growing cactus from seed.  It was from here that I purchased my first Astrophytum a few years ago, an Astrophytum myriostigma that I still have in my care today.  When I purchased it, it came with seedpods.  Unbeknownst to me, the seedpods would burst a few days later and the rest is history.

And one more note: Apologies about all the background sounds that my camera microphone picked up in this video.  I had my new external mic clipped to my shirt all ready to go... and it wasn't until I started editing the video that I realized I never plugged in my mic into the camera.  This was a big DOH! moment.  I guess it's a good lesson learned early because I will never forget again (I hope).  Thank you all for putting up with my many beginner mistakes!
