Might chuck the plant in a bag then! This one was hanging on to the seed pod for dear life.

I’ve noticed seed pods recently and for the first time today seeds on my p. appendiculatum.
1. They look stunning.
2. Will I only get one seed per pod?
3. Would anyone be interested in some seed if I manage to collect more than one?

Cracking plant. Flaviflorus?

Really appreciated, thanks Ralph.

I’ve always been put off gymnos by those horrible coloured monstrosities you see grafted on hylocereus. I also think mihanovichii is pretty ugly.

Is it just on one side or on both?

If it’s just on one side it could be scorch. If it’s all over I’d say red spider mite was a possibility.

Very nice.

I’ve got a few echinocereus in bud at the moment- looking forward to seeing the flowers!

Thanks Ray, really appreciated.

I’ve got a couple of megliolii plants that I think have collection numbers but I pretty much cut them back to ground level last year. More than happy to share cuttings when I have some.

Ray, Ralph (or anyone in fact) - I don’t have loads to trade but if you ever want to swap any bits of pteros I’d be more than happy to oblige. I’m looking for gonjianii and hickenii particularly but always happy to pick up something else I don’t have.
