The grafting process of 4 Ariocarpus fissuratus cv godzilla seedlings and 4 Rimacactus laui off-sets was completed in this morning.
It is the last grafting process in this season.

Hana,
How long do you leave the scions on your Pereakiopsis? Do you degraft all of them by 2 years?

G'morning Alex,

Do you degraft all of them by 2 years?

Yes I do.
Since Pereskiopsis stocks loose almost all leaves in 2nd winter, I degraft them in the following spring.
I assume you use same Pereskiopsis species because my Pereskiopsis came from a member of C & S Society of NSW.

Just so I don’t have to reread your threads… do you have freezing temps in the winters? What are your average lows?

[Hanazono]

G'morning LateBloomer,

do you have freezing temps in the winters? What are your average lows?

No I do not. There are no snow and no ice in here.
The coldest month is July. The average low is around 7 'C.
