Good evening dear cacti-friends,

a few photos from 11. September 2018 - a little bit of this and that. . .
My birthday was wonderful weather. . .
some friends, many flowers. . .
The last few weeks I was very tired, so no posts in the forum.
And that's why I did not go to the ELK. . .
Thank you all who thought of my birthday. . .
And also for inquiries how I feel. . .



Buuuut now Photo's. . .

Hello K.W.,
thank you for posting all those images. I had no idea, that this many genera of cacti would be in flower in September. Of course, I especially appreciated posting the pictures of those beautiful Ariocarpus spp. plants in bloom.

Harald

P.S.: It was also nice, to take a look at those interesting images of your dahlias.

Good evening Harald,

thank you for your kind words!

There were still a lot of flowers in the last days, I will still show them. . . :roll:

Yes it was a very special summer. . .
Very hot, very dry and very long.
Tomorrow we should get 32 ° C 89,6° F, on the 18th of September!
Luckily, there is no climate change - it would certainly be even more striking. . . :evil:

Best regards
