ID requests
Hi again!
Yesterday I've been busy making a list of my entire collection, just to organize things a bit.
I found 9 plants without an ID. Some plants were gifts, some I've bought from the local plant shop and others I've sown a couple of years back.
Here we go:
1, 2 & 3:
these were a gift and came in a small plastic package.
4: Ferocactus ...
This one came from a mixed seed package (sown back in 2011)
5:
Same package as number 4.
6:
From the local plant shop.
7:
This one, together with number 8 (below), was lost in a seed package of Trichocereus candicans.
8:
9: Mammilaria ... ?
Gift from an old colleage.
Thank you for your time.

Re: ID requests
Hi, we can't see your pictures. Please use a different host like imgur.com or attach them to your post instead.

Re: ID requests
Strange, because Kamos can see them. I've changed the links to addresses that ends with .jpg now. Google photos + Picasa do not allow .jpg addresses anymore, so that might be the reason that it's messed up.toadstar wrote:Hi, we can't see your pictures.

Re: ID requests
All that I saw was a blank box and when I clicked on it, it took me to a webpage asking me to sign into my google account. I don't have a google account so maybe that's why. This has happened before on here too. I can see the pictures now though.Gypscoprotheres wrote:Strange, because Kamos can see them. I've changed the links to addresses that ends with .jpg now.

Re: ID requests
Ah! Got it. So only people with a logged in google account can see images posted with these links. I'm not going to use them anymore then.

Re: ID requests
Does your plant also has red spines on top?thomas wrote:#4 ferocactus glaucescens I believe - looks a lot like mine.
Re: ID requests
No - not at the moment. But check out the cactusguide.com home page for Ferocactus and you will find it on page 7. I think the red spines are just new spines growing but mine was originally getting too much sun (moved it to a shadier area and it greening up and looking good now).Gypscoprotheres wrote:Does your plant also has red spines on top?thomas wrote:#4 ferocactus glaucescens I believe - looks a lot like mine.

Re: ID requests
I've checked this plant out a bit more. I'm 99% sure this is the right ID. There is a photo of a seedling on Cactiguide that has a lot in comon with my plant (color of the spines, form of the plant itself). Thx!Gypscoprotheres wrote:About 5,5 cm.greenknight wrote:How big is #5? If finger size, it could be Echinocereus pentalophus.
