Re: Jnspire
This is a recent bloom from what I believe to be Gymnocalycium stenopleurum.
I would appreciate confirmation and/or suggestions.

Re: Jnspire 2012
Here is my Haworthia limifolia that bloomed recently (and still is blooming).
Apparently it is also self fertile (or it accidentally got... "knocked up" haha).
I found one lone pod near the bottom. I am hoping to get some seeds from it!
Does anyone know more about the self fertility of these and if the pods "spit"?
Also, in the background of the above image are:
Portulacaria afra 'Variegata', Haworthia cymbiformis, Aloe vera, Fenestraria rhopalophylla, and an unidentified plant.

Re: Jnspire 2012
Well, I am finally getting back to the forum! YAY...
I have missed you guys/gals and the wealth of learning that I get here.
School is starting up soon and there is a lot going on...
I made a big mistake this summer. :/
I Put nearly all of my plants outside in June and left town for two weeks.
Now I know which plants can survive the heat. Lol...
But, I did lose a good chunk of my collection. On the lighter side of things I have just collected some new seeds from some hand pollinating that I did this spring.
I guess with death comes new life.
I have the seeds I collected for sale or trade. Check out my Grow/Trade list if interested.
