I've got a new friend - Attention spine lovers!

Post by BennieAnTheJets »

This is a Grusonia wrightiana or kunzei, othewise known as the awesome new cactus at our house! :lol:

For U.S. members: I got this cutting at Jason's Etsy shop ArizonaCactusGrowers. I just discovered his cactus nursery and he seems very nice! I can't buy much since I am full, but it may be worth checking out for those of us who are still growing and can order to a U.S. address. I am not sure if he ships internationally.

Anyway, I thought I'd share this photo of my new cactus cutting. I am in love! :love10: :love7:

I suppose you could get attached to it? :D

Certainly a plant for the back of the staging.
