I've sent you a private message on this.

Now I want to read the "Naked thistle and spider cactus - The genus Gymnocalycium", what a fitting title! :mrgreen: That is just a translation of the German title "Nacktdistel und Spinnenkaktus - Die Gattung Gymnocalycium", using two German vernacular names. Mittler, when publis...

Thank you Detlev! Now I want to read the "Naked thistle and spider cactus - The genus Gymnocalycium", what a fitting title!

Is there a plan of sellers' stalls? I'd like to note down from whom I got some plants while I still remember anything...

This month's photo competition is for you!
