Grafter from Canada just getting back into the hobby

Post by Pereskiopsis »

Hello all! I have run the website Pereskiopsis.com as hobby for a number of years now and absolutely love grafting and growing cacti from seed. A couple of years ago I had a big move and lost everything I had and just moved again recently and am finally going to have the opportunity to get back into it. I'm no expert, just have some experience and mistakes I have learned from.

My favorite cacti are the globular type that stay small to the ground and create little buttons. Spineless and cute is appealing to me. I also have a passion for the various species of gymnocalycium whose spines wrap around like a shield. :D My grafting experience is mostly pereskiopsis and opuntia but I am excited to experiment with some others soon. I'm hoping to get some seed and grafting stock this summer to get back into one of my favorite hobbies.

Hello.
And as the walls come down and as I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade recalling all of the times
I have died and will die.
It's all right.
I dont mind
I dont mind.
