Not late at all! I'm 64 and still sowing some Ariocarpus, it's a joy to watch them grow and change throughout the seasons

Re: Flowers drying out before they bloom
Hi Alejandro! Thank you so much for your reply. the two fruits or blossoms that I circled began but then fried up before actually opening into the usual floral bloom. And yes, there is a new bud coming up next to them. Could the cactus actually be thirsty or not hydrated enough to let the flower co...

Re: Flowers drying out before they bloom
Hi CaraR,
I believe those fruits you have there, did it flower in those 2 spots before? You can see a bud (or new growth) to the left of the 'fruits' you circled

Re: Seedling ID
Three years ago I planted a number of what I purchased as Echinofossulocactus (Stenocactus) crispatus. I am questioning the id. Could anyone offer insight to either confirm or refute the species? Thanks Just out of curiosity, what makes you doubt their id? I have no experience growing Stenocactus b...

Re: How do I root grafted gymno pups?
Dime size in diameter? I would go for something like grape size, it needs the body volume to to not shrink too fast.keithp2012 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 16, 2023 2:25 am How big must the pups be? Mine were about the size of a dime coin.

Re: Hana's grafting 2022/2023
A scion, Ariocarpus fissuratus cv godzilla has pushed flowering buds up. I grafted a young seedling on 28th November 2022. We have one more month in autumn but I am not sure it could open flowers or not because flowering buds come out from an abnormal location. Wow! That is an odd place for the bud...

Re: Fouquieria splendens campanulata flower pod
This is exciting! This is the first flower pod on this beautiful plant, purchased 8-10 years ago from Corona Cactus :) I too congratulate you. As a near neighbor, you know how cool it's been lately (2+ of snow at my place Mar. 2), and that may have been beneficial. That subsp. grows at a fairly hig...
