Aloha from the island of Oahu!

Post by sunshine808 »

Thank you for adding me! I hope to learn many things and share as well. Currently starting my journey on growing cactus seedlings and wanting to start grafting :) I really love the fuzzy/hairy, and strange/unique cactuses. Thanks again!

You are blessed to live in such a benign climate. If I lived in the the wetter regions I would try to grow the epiphytic cacti, Hoyas, ant plants, and shade loving tropical cycads. If I lived in one of the dryer (leeward) regions I would concentrate an Adeniums, Madagascar and Socatra succulents. Tropical cacti from South America would also be included.

Good luck on your acquisitions!
