haworthia, trichodiadema & Xmas Cacti to trade

Post by YellowFish »

I've got a Haworthia retusa, a Trichodiadema bulbosum, and a Christmas Cacti start to trade for some kind of Echeveria preferably or anything else that you might have, looking more for succulents than cacti. Hoping for a bare root off set or possibly a cutting.
All are small plants and will be shipped priority mail and bare root. I'll do a trade for all three or individuals, just let me know what you have and what you want to trade for.
Thanks for looking.

There are a lot of kinds of aloe. I would be glad to send you some for postage P.M. me.
I am just looking for the defining statement to put here. Follow this link to see my other cacti.

Yellowfish - if Apfire didn't have a "vera" (which I'm sure he did), I've got a big "Grandmother" (many years old, very prolific with offsets) due for repot . After today, we've forecasted for 10 days of sun :D!

There's no 12 step programme for Cactaholics...so I shall just have to get some more!!

I am not sure if you are still looking for or wanting to trade. Considering the date of this post.
If you are I am interested!

What color bloom does your Schlumbergera (christmas cactus) have?
I have a pink blooming one that I would like to try to get seeds from when it blooms next.
But, to do that I need a different (non-clone) plant.

I am willing to root a cutting of my Schlumbergera (pink blooming) to trade.
I have Haworthia cymbiformis (I think var. 'Obusa') Offsets that I could trade.

Let me know if you are interested.

I can send some images when I get home from school tonight, if you want?

:)

Hey Lisa,

I am sorry that I didn't post these last night. I ended up getting busy with other things.
I was potting new cuttings until about 2:00 am. hahaha...

Here are the images that I promised.

These are the Haworthia cymbiformis (var. 'Obtusa'???) that I am propagating.

This is my Schlumbergera truncata.
I am looking for a cutting (or cuttings) of another one (ones) just like it to breed for seed:

I have a few extra smaller pads of these that I am rooting and will be putting on my trade list:

I am interested in trading one of each of mine for one of each of yours. :)

Hi Jer,
Sorry I just promised the last of my Haworthia retusa to someone else (besides the one I am keeping, of course). But I would be happy to trade my thanksgiving cactus and my Trichodiadema bulbosum for one of your haworthias and consolea starts! Let me know if your still interested.
(I can send pic too if you want)
