Label Printers

Hello everyone! I am looking for suggestions for a good quality label printer. The more my collection grows and with my own hybrids, I really want a good label printer so that I can get all the details (hybridiser, name or crossing number etc), safely on a durable label. Obviously for long term use ...

Re: Echinopsis Ashcott Hybrids by John White

Re: Trichocereus flowering

They are very worthwhile plants Ralph.

There are constantly new hybrids being created, many interesting patterns and combinations. Blooms up to 28cm. An Example:

Re: Solufeed

Hello Peter, personally I think it is good to experiment with your set up. Part of the problem is different plants have different tolerance and preferences for watering and feeding schedules, perhaps why we have a lack of consensus? For example, I find Pachanoi, Scopulicola etc can take very frequen...

Re: Growing Pereskiopsis

I full agree with you Dave, I have seen the high grafting on the BCSS forum some years back. I have trichos already for future stock. The seedlings that will be grafted onto the Pereskiopsis are mostly going to be used for future grafting of small pups etc. I have sent you a picture of a Pere which ...
