Tending more towards cacti
, particularly Gymnocalyciums, Rebutias, Sulcorebutias, Echinopses, Thelos, Feros and Mamms (and anything else I like the look of!) all in an 8 x 6 polycarb greenhouse and a few windowsills!

Re: Succulents in Namaqualand
Hi Alan and welcome.
I don't think the Euphorbia is a caput-medusae. As far as I know this species is only found on the Cape Peninsula. I will check when I get home this evening as to what the possibilities could be.
Thanks
Aloenut

Re: Succulents in Namaqualand
Hi Aloenut, the Euphorbia was actually further south than Namaqualand, although I cannot remember exactly where. My trip began in Cape town so it might have been in that area. There was an experienced botanist on the trip who identified the species for us, so if the ID is wrong it is her fault!
Interested in cacti (particularly Echinopsis, Rebutia, Sulcorebutia, Lobivia, Gymnos and Chamaelobivia), Stapeliads, Sempervivums, and anything else that takes my fancy.
