Blossfeldia campaniflora

Post by fatich »

They are more than 2.5years old and growing in open pot.
I just kept them only a few months in the bag and repot them to another pot.

Really the slowest of all succulents, for as far as I know and experienced. Mine are a bit older, but still smaller than a pea...

I also sowed some Aztekium ritteri and they are still in the bag, seems like Blossfeldia grows faster. But maybe its because of the conditions or the materials i used.

This year they growed well considering the past year.

My Aztekiums (A. hintonii and A. ritteri) of the same age are about 50% bigger.
(That sounds a lot, but is in practice maybe two millimeters...)

Is it possible to share the pictures of the Blossies and Aztekiums?
