Thank you- so glad the videos are helpful 🙂 You can get a small greenhouse that is something like 1x2m - some even have shelves. They usually come with a clear plastic cover, but that doesn't have any UV protection so would recommend getting an extra 30% shadecloth to put over the plastic. Also, ventilation is important in small greenhouses like this, so one with little windows is best 🙂

I learned differently from the Ruth Bancroft Garden in Walnut Creek, California. Because cactus and succulents use crassulacean acid metabolism, they are metabolically active during the night, not in the day. They close the pores in their leaves to stay cool during the day and then open them during the night to take in CO2. So we learned to water our plants in the evening which is when they can absorb water. It’s very dry here, so maybe that makes a difference.

I'm aware of the Crassulacecan Acid Metabolism, but i don't think it means succulents are not active during the day. CAM means that plants able to perform it open their stomata during the night to exchange gasses in order to prevent water loss. They absorb CO2 during the night, then convert it to C4 gasses which are then converted back to CO2 during the day to preform photosynthesis. They can absolutely take up water during the day through the roots. They phtosynthesize during the day just like other plants, but CAM means they keep their stomata closed while doing so.

I'm afraid we don't post overseas. Only sell in Australia as it's simply easier- the paperwork and things like the phytosanitary certificate are hard work 😟But you should be able to get this plant in the US- i've seen some amazing nurseries that are based in the states and am pretty sure someone will have the Katella 🙂@@bobbiechinn9578
