As we don't have a really long enough summer here, more clouds than sunshine.
It took a while but my Parodia graessneri [green] finally popped.
Yes I know it's Oct 12th but the cactus doesn't know that.

Sulcorebutia?
Been trying for 2 years to put a name to this one.
12 books and still no pos ID.
Size is 3" wide and 2.25 in height.
I think it's a Sulcorebutia, but.............
Thanks

Late Bloom ID Please
I think this might be a Lobivia due to the bloom type.
But the body has me stumped?

We've got a great group of members already and always welcome new members. Cacti knowledge is not a requirement here, it...

Thanks for your help. As I said, it is not soft. None of these areas are soft. The brown spot is not rot or aging. It is a hard crust that is clam shaped [opened] None of the roots have any soft or slimy brown on them. Both cactus have solid, not soft bodies, even in the effected area. I would like ...

Cactus Caving In.
Recently I have found a few cactus of mine that have been caving in from the bottom like a mushroom. In all three cases the cactus have been solid in the area, not soft. This one is a Parodia Uebelmannianus It starts with a ridge formation right above the dirt line. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums...

Like a Straight Answer
Winter hardy info is hard to come by and what is out there is confusing. Desert-tropicals.com lists most Lobivias, Rebutias and Echinopsis as not frost hardy. But the Tucson Cactus and Succulent Society in their 123 care of cactus list, show most of them as hardy down to 18F. Now 18F is the same in ...

Slug Slime?
Over the last few days I have been getting "slime" on some of my cactus in the cold frame. At 1st I though it was slug slime, but the slime is on the flowers/buds. There is/are no slime trails on the pot, nor on the sides of the cold frame or the floor. I have found no sign of slugs or sna...

Cactus Washington State
Was wondering if there was any members who live in the Seattle area.
I live in Oak Harbor and am looking for a decent source of cactus near here.
Do you know of any nurseries in the area that have a nice selection of cactus?
Thanks
Frank
