Re: ID these ones at the nursery
The name of the 1st one is on the tip of my tongue i'll answer it eventually.
Wide leaf aloe could be some hybrid of striata.
The dead one is an echinopsis. Which one i can't tell. I usually get dead plants for free if the seem interesting and try to reroot or graft.
Last one is not a rosularia it's a sedum. Something in the vicinity of S. Sedoides.

Re: ID these ones at the nursery
Actually, sedum sedoides is reclassified as rosularia.....
But somehow i doubt that, the leaves have tiny notches on them, so ...
Yeah thanks for the second one. Might just buy that one.
The echinopsis had a huge soft black spot near its base, and i dont have any large plants to graft it on
Its probably the most interesting plant ive seen in years...

Btw, i didn't notice the label on the first one. Yes setiechinopsis mirabilis but the pic is kind of blurry so i don't say that with 100% certainty.
As for the dying plant, a couple of centimeters ot healthy tissue can root. Wouldnt get any large soon but u can blind the growth point and get small pups to graft.

Doubtful. Looked like the rot has reached the center. Its theirs now, i dont care what they do with it. Its wholesale, and it clearly had acclimation issues, and etiolation was beginning to set in.
As for the first one....Already ordered 100 seeds bulk for it. Might buy if i have money to spare.

Re: ID these ones at the nursery
I think the first one looks more like Echinocereus viridiflorus. Blooms will pin it down.

Re: ID these ones at the nursery
greenknight i dont think so. If it were, im pretty sure it be plumper/rounder and have red spines and be slightly brighter .

There's a lot of variation in E. viridiflorus, take a look: https://www.google.com/search?q=Echinoc ... 00&bih=796

Re: ID these ones at the nursery
Its not spherical. Spines are way way too thin.

Re: ID these ones at the nursery
Neither of those rule out E. viridifloris, it can be spherical or cylindrical, and the spines vary greatly. There are many varieties, CactiGuide lists 8.stefan m. wrote:Its not spherical. Spines are way way too thin.
