Very "David Hockney" ... "joiners" .... from the 70s
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.

Aloe hildebrandtii in flower. This is the ssp gloveri now a synonym. Usual hildebrandtii flowers are yellow.
