Strukto 2012
no plants in flower yet, although there are quite some plants carrying buds
for now an overview of my collection:
the collection, with on the left the plants that are for sale
the seedling table, a bit empty at the moment because most seedlings are in winter storage
heated winter storage, here I keep brazilians, hylocereus, epi's, pereskiopsis and of course my seedlings and grafts
now going home, here is the lightbox with the bagged seedlings in it, just sown a new batch last week!
and in the windowsill the seedlings that are out of their bags
[edit]
also made all pictures in last years topic visible again:

Re: Strukto 2012
that cleistocactus winterii almost looks like a natural plant that wasn't grown in cultivation(obviously it was) it just has that look.

Re: Strukto 2012
artur, no not even a bud yet I believe it's supposed to in january..... didn't happen
daniel, funny thing is it's from a small normal growth cutting taken from a crested plant two years ago, it's a really fast grower!
it had its first flowers at the end of last summer which was beautiful

Re: Strukto 2012
Hi StrUktO
Good luck with all those seeds I've had some mixed seeds going all summer here and they are still alive.
As they are my first effort at seed growing I will be surprised if I have much success.
After seeing the last picture you posted, I'm a bit confused now, it's bit hard to see the shape of the flower but have I got these plants totally wrong?
Whadayarecken? (aussie for "What do you think?" )

Re: Strukto 2012
larry, no seeds so far, if I have some I'll probably sow only few myself, I have to take plenty of cuttings to keep my crest crested!
you may have a lot of succes with growing these, they are fast growers and not demanding at all
I reckon ( ) the first plant looks about right, the shape of the flowers is the same as far as I can see and colours can vary
the second one however looks a lot more 'cleisto' to me, cleistocacti in general have flowers that don't fully open, winterii is the only exception
so... if you have a cleistocactus with flowers that don't fully open it's probably not winterii
samaipatanus is a proper id I think
