Hello!!

Image<t>Hello everyone.<br/>
I’m a MSG member. Years ago I was in BCSS South Norfolk Branch, spending many happy years as Show Secretary. We moved (still in Norfolk) a couple of years ago. Prior to that I confess I had lost interest in the spiny ones, and not having a heated greenhouse for the first winter at our new home somewhat reduced my collection!<br/>
Anyway, I’m now into Conophytums. I still have a few old cacti but the plan over the next few years is to fill the greenhouse with dumplings.</t>
Here’s a view of part of the collection, plenty of space left yet!
Peter

Thanks Chris. I expect to learn a lot from some of the experts here in the course of the next few years. I’ve trawled the forum and there’s certainly a lot of beautiful well grown Conos to be seen!
