Man about the House

Just a few of my cacti

This new eruption from my T bridgessivmontrose (long form) took me by surprise. The first picture was taken about 9 days ago. Whilst the second just 9bdays later!

I am really looking forward to seeing how this varicoloured T pachanoi develops:

And my varied Lophophora w. Is a real delight to behold!

The baby lophs are over 2 years old and are still tiny. Cute, aren't they!

 

A Day in the Garden

Loving the Loph.

X100 Baby Loph Sowing

Just surface-sowed X100 Lophohora williamsii seeds, sourced from Germany ( source: Koehres-Kakteen.de). Sown in a Westland Cacti mix (with Seramis) and mixed with Limestone. Will be placing this on a thermostat-controlled heatmat at 85° for maximum germination...

It is officially Spring!

 Monty has at last awoken from his wintet slumber:

Making the most of the Spring vibes, I also repotted my Mandrake:

And potted up my grapfted Lophora:

Another sure sign Spring is in the air is the new leaves growing on my 31-year-old, Winter-cut, Crassula ovata:
