Re: J-Cacti 2012
Nice looking flowers! I like how some of the flowers are bigger than the plant itself (and how that type of T bicolor only has 1 color)!
A cactus and succulent collector who especially likes Ariocarpus. …Though I have a bit of everything! Want some pictures? See my flickr! I also do art and such.

Re: J-Cacti 2012
Thanks all. Yes sharpy even the spines on this white flowered form show only one color. It is as a matter of fact more touchy in cultivation than the type either.gemhunter178 wrote:Nice looking flowers!

Re: J-Cacti 2012
another plant that is hard to label
The original label said Neochilenia similar to nigriscoparia- which would now be Eriosyce crispa.
But looking at it it is probably a form around Eriosyce crispa ssp. atroviridis /Pyrrhocactus atroviridis Another atroviridis from last year to compare with and a crispa

Very nice. Very nice on all the things you post. Don't have enough time to post to all, but I do like your greenhouse and what's inside.
