Re: easy caudiciforms
I did that with a couple plants, a Tephrocactus and a Gymnocalycium, both did well. Ordered them from a California grower in October, figuring that way the weather wouldn't be too hot or cold while they were in transit. Potted them up around Nov. 1 and didn't water them (though the mix was damp) until Spring. The Gymno arrived with flower buds on it, didn't even lose those - they bloomed when the weather warmed.
