Cacti and Succulents

Haha, you should see the flight of our arrows! I had to move it from the window sill to take a pic. lol. I'll grab my lad's Blackberry and take a better pic in situ

Pete , don`t get me wrong in this , Will giles is more of an illusionist , when you walk in his garden you will be really impressed , but if you look closely there is lots of illusion around it ....I`m not talking bad about him , but he really inspired me. If you feel your garden with gravel ,...

sal, I do agree that loads of plants are named Aloe vera by people who don't have a clue.But this is one i actually wouldnt bother with. There are so many fantastic miniature species of Aloe.

Not a clear photo. But it looks like Euphorbia ferox to me. Agree with Sal on the rest I would say min 3*C. There aren't that many, so I would try keep them on a windowsill. No water, as even though it may be warmer indoors, they will etiolate due to the poor light.

Grown a few Aeoniums but not good at ID. All I can say is light levels play a big part in how they grow/look. I'd give all of them full sun and dryish in summer. They can grow out of character if forced or grown in shade,

I'd hazard a guess at Echinopsis Mira, usually night blooming, (opens in the evening and last the following day if kept in the shade), some are scented.

Sal, If you keep Aloe striatula dry in winter, you will probably keep it going. I find it usually dies back if it gets wet.

Wow that's amazing!

Gasteria verrucosa is not going to be hardy. I really doubt it.

I'll probably give it a go too, next year, I'm guessing they need at least a few leaves to produce flowers lol

I think fleece would shut out too much light. Would be fairly easy to lift the cloches & wipe them over, but yes it could be a problem with cactus! Val

Haha, Yes I had the white one for a few months and then I mistakenly left it in the care of my mother I've now got some more and have a small collection of 15 cuttings of different cultivars in a number of states of growth You know me far to well Pete I'd love a bit of your Pink one as...

It's currently in my room on the window sill where I have the window open all year round:o so no water and no repot gotcha but if it dies expect a PM:roflsign:

Wonderful ,I also liked the Plumeria ... Dave

The display looks very pretty, maybe it will be possible to just move the position of the plants according to growht rate once you put them in a bigger container. But, are you saying that they don't get natural light?

Looking at the pics Duffy, you appear to have "grafted" cacti, ie, a specific cacti has been grafted onto a rootstock, I suggest it was not a flower.In pics one and two I would guess the grafted plant has died and the shoots are from the rootstock, in pic three we have one of those shoots...

Oh? I never knew that. That means, there's still a chance of getting fruits - I will check them out right tomorrow morning! Thanks for that useful information!PS: anyone being able to locate natural hazelnuts? Need these seeds because I want to grow them. Thanks. I offer seeds of tropical...

Google for suppliers..you should be able to find it with some effort. The pricing would definitely be steep I feel____________________________________________lawn care service

What appears to have happened is the new growth has grown by sucking the moisture from the bottom part of the plant, I'm thinking the bottom part has no living roots so its shrivelled in the process.I've laid cacti cuttings on the bench in the greenhouse to callous over the cut surface, and...

Sorry Pete02 cannot help you with your plant, but you have Good taste in Patio Sets I Have The Same One music .
