This is a great board. Let me also record one of my small plants.
This A. ritteri was sown in the winter of 2015. At that time, I had no experience and only one survived. This is the spring of 2016, can you see it? The small red ball in the middle is it:
By November 2017, it had grown up a little:
May 2019:
2020:It's starting to grow thorns,It looks really beautiful at this time.
2021:My carelessness, it got sunburnt, or was it bitten by insects?
2022:It looks ugly in 2022, but it is slowly recovering. In fact, since 2016, I have sown a lot of these plants, and now it looks good. But I still like this one I sowed for the first time.
I think I will always take care of this plant and hope it can grow up healthily.

Re: A.ritteri

Re: A.ritteri
Very nice seedlings! I sowed these for the first time nearly 2 years ago and to be honest I'm not so sure if they're still alive or just that slow (less developed than your November 2017 picture anyway!)
Re: A.ritteri
If they are still green, they are alive. They really are slow!
