Very pretty flowers.

You've got some of the most desirable species of any advanced collector
We can't find most of those species on their own roots any where in the US

And you grow them without a green house!
Very well done.

My Ariocarpus seed pods formed weeks after yours, I wonder if it's weather (heat)
or location?

In fact, I have a small seedling box that simulates a large greenhouse used by professional growers.

The small plants I grow are my favorite varieties, and these varieties are not because of their rarity.

The main reason is that I am not a professional grower, and the space in my home is limited. These slow growing but delicate plants are exactly suitable for me.

I have to agree with the crowd, Aztek--you are brilliant. Your specimens are perfect, displaying form, culture, art, and philosophy at once. The rarities simply add to the beauty of your collection.
