Hello all,
I have recently joined this forum.
I have however been a member since CSSGB days in about 1972.
I live in Berkshire and have a small greenhouse. My collection has varied in size over the years but now I have decided to keep it frost free I have been able to increase the numbers to over 200, mainly small, apart from a two foot tall euphorbia!
I have lately taken up with caudex types such as those from Madagascar, and was delighted to add some from the stalls at Cactus Live on Saturday.
Keith
I forgot to say that my local garden centre is doing a lot to bring cheap well grown plants to the public. small pots at £1.99 up to large echinocactus grusonii about 20cm across for £5! There are thousands of specimens available.
