Thanks Tony, to be honest most of the unusual stuff has come from localish cactus nuts that sell a few on the side. I am lucky in that in a 50 mile radius I have three great private sellers. The garden centres around here have all the normal common stuff.
Six of the Ariocarpus came from a nice old guy (must be in his eighties) who was virtualy giving them away. They must be a good eight years old and he sold them to me for £8/$16 a piece!

Cheers Darryl.
I am already dreaming of a small house but with a very large plot of land, big enough for a monster greenhouse/greenhouses. Then when thats filled up chasing PeterB around to see them all in natural habitat. Thats if I live that long, after oven roasting two trays of soil for my Ariocarpus seeds, the house stinks. Ms Lordarutha is not going to be very happy when she gets home!:oops:

Is your new greenhouse big enough to accomindate a cot

Tony · Post by **Tony** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 1:31 am

Just tell her ya were makin her something really special for dinner, just because,and somehow it went horribly wrong so you had to throw it all out.
Then cross your fingers.

Probably a little to late now, huh.Oh well, next time.

wow, nice list Paul.

looking good.
im particularly envious about your ariocarpus range. i dont have even one, mainly becasue they are extremely rare and extremely expensive here.
nice astrophytum collection as well.
you have many cacti you never see around here,and some i have never seen in the flesh.
your beating me with with the Uebelmannia! mines still alive after about 3 weeks. its a tiny seedling, but seems to be going okay.
...looking at that list.. how are you going to fit them in your greenhouse?!!

lordarutha · Post by **lordarutha** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 9:59 am

It's ok, I am still alive this morning. I burnt some incense sticks and it hid the smell

Lewis_cacti wrote:...looking at that list.. how are you going to fit them in your greenhouse?!!

No worries there Lewis, they are all in apart from the Melocactus and Ariocarpus. They get to stay in the house and get frowned at by Ms. Lordarutha.

Most of my plants are quite small and in 2.5-3" pots.

Now why didn't I think of that!

G'day Paul,
Nice looking list, would love to see a pic of your Leuchtenbergia principis as this is one cacti I have wanted for so long

One day I will find one or grow one

Betty

Hi Betty, mine is not the best specimen I have ever seen, found it in a bargain bucket looking pretty sorry for itself

peterb · Post by **peterb** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 3:00 pm

Hi Paul- great list of plants, should be a ton of fun over the years, especially combined with the plants you'll acquire in the meantime....

The Leuchtenbergia looks fine to me...I mean, sure, a little rough. Some of the epidermal patches probably from too cold and damp in winter. But the inner tubercles look healthy. There's probably a way to keep Leuchtenbergia looking pristine but they seem to generally tend toward the rough look your plant has as they age.

Thanks Peter, inner tubercles are fine and I am hoping over time it will look a bit cleaner. It was as dry as a bone and potted in peat when I bought it but it's been re-potted now so it should start to pick up soon.

Post by **daiv** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 3:58 pm

Yep, all the ones I've seen are rough too. I like that rugged look anyway.

Lewis_cacti · Post by **Lewis_cacti** » Sat Mar 08, 2008 1:10 am

yep.. al the ones ive ever seen look like that.. in fact most look a lot worse than yours Paul.
i have one tiny seedling one.. it looks 'clean' because its so young.
