The hot weather is working wonders for our cacti. They'll look spectacular when they're out.

They are all around the 15 year mark, a couple are a bit older!Mandy wrote:wow the flowers are going to look fantastic when there out, how old are these cacti?
I usually remove all the 'pups' as well to keep them looking tidier and reducing weight on the main plant, haven't got round to it this year.

Re: Flower buds on cacti
