Hallo, there definitely is just one plant in the pot. Not two. And fortunately the flowers don't get smaller and smaller over the years. (I should have noticed after 30 years - they had vanished by then... :D) Harry, I guess I sent you a white one. But I can find that out. Whatever it is, do you wan...

Somehow I have to add these two pictures, too. It is so incredible to me!

Hallo, everybody, I guess I have already posted a picture or two of my 30year old Epiphyllum. This year it is going crazy! No idea what it's up to. Let me introduce the plant to you: This is how I know him in spring and in autumn. http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h292/nachtkrabb/Flowering%20Cacti/E...

Hallo, Harry,
I am so sorry that you have lost a plant.
But: what kind of plant is an .... aaah ... a Conyphytum?
Groeten
Ruth

Hallo, Wildfyre,
I am sorry that I can't help you as I have never seen the plant. But I am curious! Would you please post a picture?
Thank you
Ruth

Hallo, everybody, maybe this topic hasn't been noticed by the succulent/non cactus freaks, as the plant swap is listed with the cacti fora. So I announce it again: I have Stapelia leendertziae cutlings to give away. A picture with flower and details see here: http://www.cactiguide.com/forum/viewtopi...

:shock: ooops: I hadn't expected people queuing up. But I am really astonished that nobody seems to want one of these little ones. Have they done anything wrong? Or is this kind that common, that everybody who is interested already has one? I will wait another week until I plant them in. So, if you ...

Thank you very much for the naming, Peter and Bill!
Whenever she will flower again, I will send you the picture.

Hallo, Bill, here is the next riddle, but to make it more interesting I don't know the answer myself. This Opuntia resides since about 4years in its pot - but always outside the house. Yes, it seems to be quite frost-hardy. When I got home on Thursday after some days, it was all abloom. I have no id...

Hallo, everybody, today I repotted & cut my Stapeliae leendertziae. This means: there is ca. half a dozen surplus cutlings. Without roots, but healthy. (I got mine years ago from the Stockholm Botanical Garden, and they had imported wild plants from South Africa.) When they grow up, they will lo...

Hi Daiv,
is there an updated list of what you are missing? Some of these days I will visit the Succulent Collection in Zurich again and I could take a camera with me.
Ruth

Thanks everybody, I will need loads of plants: The first small step is ca. 0.5m/ca. 1ft, the 2nd ca. 1.3m/4ft, the 3rd and 4th ca. 0.5m /2ft, and the last as the first. Fortunately I have just visited my Godmother who gave me some cutlings (allready planted). And that Northern Nursery Tobias wrote a...

Hallo, Harry,
and we are really to believe this is natural?!
Ruth

PS: Probably I am just stunned...

Hi, Tobias and Ian,
thank you for all the information! That Northern Nursery looks good, and so do your pictures, Ian. I feel like having detected the beginning of a vein of gold - and who knows, what else is there to find if I follow it?!
Have a good time
Ruth

Hallo, Daiv,
thank you for all the time & energy you invest in this site! You will get my share by next mail. Unfortunately I don't have anything from your list. But fortunately I have some cacti that are not on your index up to now.
