Free cutting

Post by cactushobbyman »

I have a free small cutting of a Myrtillocactus Geometrizans. However the freight maybe just a little bit high. :lol:

Two nights ago we had a spring rain with some nice winds and I guess the weight was too much. The cutting measures 7 feet 5 inches and for sure more than 100 pounds. I guess it's a self pruning plant. :lol:

Dennis, I'll be glad to take 1 or 2 of those smaller upper branches! I kept my twin 2'-ers out on porch this late Fall too long. When they got moved upstairs to "warmer" climes, damage was done & it was a slow death thru the Winter for them. Send me a PM if you're interested.

There's no 12 step programme for Cactaholics...so I shall just have to get some more!!

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but are you sure that isn't Cereus peruvianus?

I'm not sure if the id is correct but those 2 little nubs on the bottom left of the Broken end of the cactus are calling my name!!

PM me your address and I'll send out a cutting. Those on the ground went to the trash, but I can cut a new piece off. Allow a few days to dry before I ship. :D
