Well done Mike, very nice it is too. Thanks for sharing.

Can I ask how old is the plant?
Cheers

I've had A. hintonii and A. bravoanus ages ago, and a surprise A. elephantidens in July, but it is early for A. retusus. Maybe they are hiding buds in the wool, ready to spring out when I least expect it.
