I did buy a LOT of Euphorbia's, most quite small but I enjoy trying to grow them on.
Top right Id seems a bit off as it was sold as E poisonii but the leaf shape is wrong when compared to my plants, however the plant labeled E venifica looks the correct shape for poisonii so I'm hoping ID was transposed ,E venifica has been on my wish list for a while so fingers crossed.
They are only 2 yr old seedlings but were a great find for me.

Re: Elk plants- just a few
A typical plant for my collection as I like the odd/ugly plants or should I say 'inidivual looking' plants

Nice selection there Tina! Not so sure about the 'individual' looking one though...

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: Elk plants- just a few
and I couldn't pass these up, some more off my wish list:ban: and one of my friends will be very happy.

there isn't space for them all so I need to go thru the collection again thinning out the cacti, although I did buy a couple of cacti.
I'm still working on him indoors for another greenhouse but he is ignoring me !:(, maybe Xmas.

Interesting looking plants there Tina.
Don't know if you are aware that Gasteraloe `Wonder` hates water on it's leaves it marks realy easily, not sure why.

Some nice Agaves there Tina! I just don't know how you manage to 'thin out'! I look at my plants and there aren't many that I'd be happy to 'lose'!!

All potted now though but I had a wobble when the dog had one, she's a bit of a menace & eats the cycad so I was lucky it only lost one leaf... and no chew marks
