Post by agavemad »

Inspired by the recent images of agave I thought I would add a few photos.

A fine collection of both plants and images.
Are these the images which were misbehaving when you tried to post them earlier? If so, you may have found the solution.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Yes some are, I opened them in paint and saved them as png which seams to have worked. What I can not understand is why some will load and some will not, same file, same pc, same camera and taken on the same day!

I have 3 striata pups, however they are not showing much variegation. That being said they were kept under the staging till they established in their own pots. Hopefully now they are 'up top' they will start to colour up, or maybe not. I would not be happy sending them if they don't show any sign of variegation.
