This is the thread where we will show some result!
About one year of growth should give an idea of what type of growth you could expect on that stock.

When you sowed seeds and grafted seedlings in spring:

Small size of Ariocarpus eg kotschoubeyanus and agavoides will be in flower in autumn.

Astorophytum will be in flower in spring next year.

Large size of Ariocarpus eg retusus will be in flower in autumn next year.

Here are three more grafted in late august, 2010.
I did these in part of a grafting/vegitative propagation demonstration Buck, Darryl and I did for the Gates clubs september meeting, suprisingly it looks like they all took. :shock:
Here they are before removal of the bandages(electrical tape) in my green house in filtered sun covered with water bottles with the tops chopped off.Image
And with the bandages removed just this morning.

Notice I forgot to cut the taper on the sides of #3 and the top surface has remained much flatter.
I hadnt noticed this before so other than to remove an areole very close to the top to prevent offsets from growing close to the scion, I will skip that step from now on.:wink:

That's great Tony.
I have an "ordinary" Copiapoa tenuissima, that I've got from Jens, grafted on an Myrtillocactus. It will bee interesting to see what's happen with that :)

I can't wait to start grafting now that I have some Pereskiopsis myself, But I'm gonna have to wait until next spring, or wait until I can get the other cutting rooted in my Bio lab and see if they get some growth.
