Re: Various cacti identification help

I would agree with Kamos, it appears to be mammillaria karwinskiana, individuals can show great variety in spination.

Re: Have I got these right?

Yup those all look correct to me, but I would say that all of them could use more light than they are receiving.

Re: Hana's cacti

Very nice cacti, I really want to try growing geohintonias! I like the blue tongue, they are pretty cool skinks! I hadn't realized until just now that they were native to Australia.

Re: Have you had success ordering plants from outside your country?

I have placed a few overseas orders without proper documentation and it is a gamble all but one actually made it through but the one that didn't was confiscated and destroyed. So pick your sellers carefully. I can give you some recommendations if you want to pm me.

Re: Cactus Album app

I am working on cataloging my current collection with the iOS app. It is working pretty well, but I have alot to account for so it's taking some time. Do you think it would be possible to add a feature where you could upload more photos of the plant then arrange them chronologically so that you can ...

Re: cactus identification

Dave I debated Notocactus uebelmannianus, but I was looking at the spines towards the bottom of the picture and they seemed reminiscent of juvenile echinopsis spines. But it could very well be Notocactus.

Re: cactus identification

Appears to be an echinopsis of some sort, but a better picture would make identification easier.
