Cheers from Tasmania

Post by ekymetal »

Hi Everyone

Hoping you all know where Tasmania is.
Looking forward to learning lots here.
I am new to cacti and succulents, and have collected many types.
Mostly i hope to learn how to identify and look after them, also how to graft and grow
from cuttings.
I will also try not to ask to many stupid questions !!!

Best wishes from Van Diemens Land

I prefer the cactus
For the simple reason that it has a more interesting personality.

I welcome you to the CactiGuide cactus and succulent blog. Your two cacti do look, like they have been with you for a while, which indicates to me, that you do have a "green thumb".
About the questions: Go ahead and ask as many as you like. There are not too many "stupid questions", and in case one of them is being asked, I do not mind them, because then perhaps I am actually able to answer them. :lol:

Welcome ekymetal! I certainly know where Tazzie is. Somewhere I'd love to see. Great Gondwanan flora! Looks like you have some beautifully potted plants that are well cared for. Not bad in a land of cool and some rain.
