Escobaria Topic 2012
This is a genus usually a little cultivated in Italy but for me they are very interesting plants resistant to low temperatures.
In winter cultivate these plants in a cool greenhouse where the temperature can drop to 12 ° C below zero

Re: Escobaria Topic 2012
Lovely little plants! I like Esco's as well, but I think they're a bit underrated really. It's a great genus with some lovely plants included within it!
Re: Escobaria Topic 2012
lovely plants!

Re: Escobaria Topic 2012

Thanks Arjen

Re: Escobaria Topic 2012
Very nice plants!
I like this genus, but they can be very hard to ID!

Re: Escobaria Topic 2012
Obviously you have many of them. I don't have any escobaria. But I will look at yours here more times.
Re: Escobaria Topic 2012
One of my favorite genera. Bruno started a great Escobaria thread here:

Below are pics of the Escos I am currently growing here in hot Phoenix, AZ. It is not their favorite climate. They have a very short burst growing season here and spend a long time dormant. Many pics are of seedlings ranging from 2 to 4 years old. I am ordering several more from Mesa Garden soon.
