The following non-commercial web site that I generated is not intended to be an authoritative treatise. Quite the opposite, it simply represents an accumulation of notes and photographs I have assembled over time relating to numerous species I have grown and propagated and that might be of some use to fellow enthusiasts. I will be updating it periodically to include more photographs and information relating to additional species I have cultivated.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
Re: Cultivating cacti of N. E. Brazil
Ah, thank you K.W. my dear friend. Of course your own efforts and contributions are enormous. I just visited your thread ("Every day new flowers in the greenhouse in Köln") to feast on the daily repast of photos of those magnificent plants and flowers of yours.K.W. wrote:.......... Dear James,

I have added a Discocactus Miscellany page
This is a selection of plants some of which may be cultivars or hybrids or of suspect nomenclature.
Much taxonomic confusion and controversy surrounds this genus -- there has been much discarding, or consigning to pseudonyms, of many old names.
I think some of my plants maybe cultural hybrids due to greenhouse cross pollination (which appears to occur frequently in this genus) .
The bold names in the captions accompanying the photographs are those that accompanied purchased plants.

I happened upon your website by accident while doing a search for Tacinga. I downloaded the entire site as reference in case it ever goes down. I check it every so often. Tu sitio es muy informativo, James.
