pseudo/bombax ellipticum for Ernie

Post by Tina »

Sadly for Ernie he sold his collection a few years ago due to health issuesbut I was lucky and he sold me this pseudo bombax ellipticum, unfortunately when he went to unpot it he discovered it had no roots, I still wanted it and after 1 or 2 years it rooted and started growing well for me, now it hides in the succulent greenhouse where its a bit of a jungle and it camouflages in well.

varied collection of succulents and cacti but I especially like Euphorbia's, Ariocarpus and variegated agaves.
