Saguaro, yes i did get a few of them online. I did pick up another one today while on the road, i belive its a mini beaver tail Opuntia? Hubby is starting to get mad at me i keep telling him to stop here and there just so i can see if the stores have any cacti.. LOL!!

We are off to "Pinks All Out" and will return very late saturday night. Hopefully i can catch up alittle on sunday then its back on the road again, more club biz..

And have fun at "Pinks all out"!

Sounds like some great additions!

Could I ask you a favor, to post extra pics of of your Euphorbia cereiformis? This may or may not be a valid species, may or may not be known only from cultivation, and may or may not be a hybrid

So it's interesting

Thanks,
-R

Pics of some of the new spikey additions, few gatherd together in the sun..

Lancer heres the one ya wanted me to post pics of, all i know is thats what was one the name lable.

it dont seem to have spines forming on the top i think it had a glued on flower on top at one time befour i got it.

and more
Ferocactus? No tag on this one.

this one says Mamm Rhodantha on tag

its such a stunning cacti most beautiful colored spines and body..

and these are supose to be Mamm Spinossima red headed irishman? They sure do look alittle diffrent from each other, guesses anyone??

Ferocactus Pilosus

i belive this was the Coryphantha Cornifera

Rebutia Marsoneri Krainziana "yellow flower" variety and also the E. Setosa

Rhipsalis horrida " Mouse Tail"

and this is Haworthia Comptoniana?

my mini beaver tail Opuntia

gota get some pics of the others, im just listing the names of them that was on there tags they came with so if there not named correctly please by all means let me know...

Post by **daiv** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 2:28 pm

I think your no tag "Ferocactus" is actually that extra-nice-spined Melocactus that seems to be available out east.

I also think that the R. horrida (aka R. baccifera ssp horrida) is actually R. pilocarpa. Prompted by a plant that CP had, I did a compared the two and put my conclusions on these pages:

http://www.cactiguide.com/cactus/?genus ... =baccifera

http://www.cactiguide.com/cactus/?genus ... =pilocarpa

Nice ones, Tracey!

You'll want to be carefull with that Euphorbia with the small pups at the base. These plants grow them from below the soil level, which is why they are light green. Exposed like that could burn them pretty quickly.

I agree with daiv on all accounts, I would love to have that beautiful melocactus.
I think that euphorb is one of the different forms of Horrida? or maybe its was polygona? or....

iann · Post by **iann** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 3:08 pm

The other names mostly look good to me.

*Barracuda_52* · Post by ***Barracuda_52*** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 3:57 pm

Thanks guys, Daiv, that R. horrida looks diffrent than the other one i have thats simular that was sent to me as a cutting its a lighter green and has less spines/hairs on it. I will snap a pic of the 2 of them side by side and post it up for yaz, also thanks for letting me know that one big one is a Melocactus, when its spines get wet they turn a beautiful red color, real eye catching..

Thanks Darryl, i do keep it in a bright spot in the GH but its not in full sun yet i know the little pups would fry for sure, its turned so that the pups are on the shadey side. So did something happen to the top of it or is it supose to look like that?

Thanks Tony that Melocactus is a real beaut..

Thanks Iann, so are the 2 Mamm Spinossima red headed irishman the same or diffrent one has darker longer red spines with darker body compared to the other..

I will get some pics of the Euphorbia Polygona cv Snowflake and the Chamaelobivia "Rose Quartz" peanut cactus today and more of the other new ones as they come in. I would love to find another Mamm Rhodantha its such a BEAUTIFUL cacti..
