You are on my hit list for sure Peter. I have tons of new growth and am just waiting for the new pads to harden. I was going to see if you wanted to do a box for box trade in a few weeks.

Peter(theCactusGuy) - Boy there's a bunch of us Peter-types on this Forum :wink: I've had a dozen engelmanni seeds (& my humifusa + prob. ficus-indica) in the Germinator (with a 3 day hard-freeze "break") since 1/5 - nothing! If you have an unclaimed pad or 2, please let me know!

I will be getting some soon. I will keep you in mind. I have to chop some down that come out into a walkway. I think something fell too, possibly a saguaro so I will check out tomorrow and see what it was. It's been windy here tonight.

If it knocked out any cactus I will see what I can do.
(the other Peter) there are too many of us here :)

Opuntia species "Reticualata" also called zebrina or dillenii but I don't think it is either.
Image

Opuntia pusilla
Image

Pereskia grandiflora / grandifolia
Image
Image

Quiabentia verticillata
Image
Image

Opuntia ficus-indica variegated " Sunburst"
Image
Image

Opuntia monacantha / vulgaris variegated " Joseph's Coat" reverted to normal
Image
Image

Nopalea cochenillifera variegated
Image

Opuntia robusta "Monstrosa" very doformed robusta. Unbelievable until you see the reverts. It truly is robusta.

I'd be happy to do some trading in the spring. do you have seedlings of the things on your grow list or is that just what you grow? :-) The Echinopsis atacamensis looks like it'd be an AWESOME plant! Does it grow as slow as a Saguaro?
The Tacinga's look like they'd make a nice addition to a collection as well.
I'm sure If I took the time to look it over closely, I'd bet there's an Opuntia or two that would also make a nice addition.

I will have a few you may like, come spring. Harrisia fragrans and O. cubensis are two of my latest acquisitions that you may like. But we can talk more closer to spring.

For the most part I have plenty of most on my list. I do only cuttings and some things I probably have too many of as far as exta cuttings I made. I sure could use that fragrans. Maybe I should chop up my simpsonii and make starts so I can trade with you.

The growth rate is not the fastest but not as slow as saguaro.

Nice list!

What does your "Cleistocactus ? Very spiny" look like? Any chance you can post a pic?
