Home grown

Post by cactushobbyman »

25 years ago my wife bought some seeds that were sold as Saguaros at the Phoenix airport. They ended up being Ferocactus. The first picture is what happens when the growth point freezes and pups start to grow. The pups are so numerous and heavy it is growing downward.
