Hi Christer
I tried Eriosyce caligophila , E. Islayensis (divaricatiflora), E. spec. llanos de Challe, Strombocactus disciformis v. jarmilae, and some other I don´t remember at the moment. Some failed to attach on the stock, some loosened again when pullling of the little plastic container after 2 weeks.
I´ll take some closer photos soon.

Yes, and if you make it right and keep everything clean it will workJens wrote:Hi Christer:
I don´t know how, but it worked so far.
(just cut it and put it on the fresh-cut Periskopiopsis stock)
No, if you are thorough it's not luck; it's good work!Jens wrote:I guess it was just beginnners luck

Thanks Christer
As you were talking about the seedlings we got of the long spined Eriosyce occulta, I took a look at them in the GH too and I found them very similar looking to the E. paucicostatas .
Since it was insect pollinated seed that might be a hint for them being hybrids (and not so precious at all) . But we will wait for them to flower. So maybe one (or both) of us should try a grafting. What do you think?

That's interesting Well, to increase the likelihood that any of us succeed, maybe we both should make a graft? I have 4 small plants, but they are to big to graft on pereskiopsis But I can graft one or two on myrillocactus with the super-glue methodJens wrote:As you were talking about the seedlings we got of the long spined Eriosyce occulta, I took a look at them in the GH too and I found them very similar looking to the E. paucicostatas .
