Re: Hana's cacti
An ariocarpus retusus cv Shinkawa Tamazouge was in flower.
The flowering of Ariocarpus continued to the end of April last year but I am not sure in this year.

Re: Hana's cacti
The weather in this autumn is abnormal. Some Astrophytum are still in flower.
Since I can see some flowering buds on Ariocarpus species, they will come back soon.

Re: Hana's cacti
Hi. Do you use any special special bin/ container for bottom watering ? I have some cheap tray but they break down in the sun after a year. thanks for you help.

Re: Hana's cacti
G'morning Lui,
Since water does not reach to bottom of cactus by top watering, you need bottom watering.
I use a bucket for the bottom watering.
Water drips from pots on both top and bottom waterings. Dripping is received by a tray which set permanently.
Both bucket and tray are made by recycle plastic designed as weather-resistance.

Almost all my cacti are watered from top except cacti amid rooting process.Do you use any special special bin/ container for bottom watering ?
