Re: Pachycormus discolor - cuttings?

Hi Mike,
I've not had any luck with these rooting.

If you are going to trim wait until the stem is in fresh growth, I've had luck with bursera fagaroides rooting so its always worth trying.
Good luck

Re: Pest control

Its my hot greenhouse with Euphorbia & others, which gets a splash here & there, they don't like bone dry roots like the cactus house.

Re: Pest control

Possibly odd q, I applied compo bi 58. Its A systemic, should you wait a while before watering so its absorbed & spread thru the plant to hopefully kill the bugs or does watering a few days later make no difference or even help spread it around the plant or we haven't a clue.

Re: Variegated copiapoa

Hi
Can't explain it but love the colouring.
I have a variegated gymnocalycium where the yellow grows at a faster rate, could it be some chimera properties

Re: Handmade Plant Pots

I have had some nice pots from this chap, some larger upright ones, prices are more reasonable than some Bonsai people, he does sell on ebay sometimes

Re: Gerrardanthus lobatus & fruit, caudex

Oops, agreed, I do have gerradanthus.
Guess I was blinded by the cute fruit, although the caudex on this is has never grown, my other kedrostis africans are multi lobed so its probably not africans
