Re: Love 'em or Hate 'em ....
Personally I understand the necessity with slow-growing plants, plants with no chlorophyll, or in an emergency to save a rotting cactus, but aesthetically I'm not a fan. I have buried the grafting stock on my grafted slow-growing plants. Whilst we're on the subject, when considering substrate for y...

Re: Variegated copiapoa
As long as some of it is GREEN it means that it has some chlorophylls in the body. The mutant/variegated yellow bit has no chlorophylls (yes there's more than one type of chlorophyll). The yellow is a mixture of other pigments including xanthophylls, carotenoids and flavenoids, which are red-orange-...

Re: Love 'em or Hate 'em ....
I was advised to keep them warm and dry since I've lost mihanovichii in the GH before. I've used the conservatory by permission because that tends to stay above 5C ish. That's an interesting rib coloration. I have a few now ... with pups. I'm hoping to practice my grafting skills ... but it'll proba...

Love 'em or Hate 'em ....
When I first started to collect cactus and began to understand a little about them, I found hybrids and mutants and grafted plants totally abhorrent. Probably many other enthusiasts of much longer standing have a greater intolerance. However, a casual encounter with UV and IR imagery started me off ...
