So a fellow I know has a large one of these plants and it’s producing an offset thaw currently maybe 1 3/4” in diameter. He’s tried rooting cuttings in the past from this plant and has had no luck. Debating on trying with this new growth in spring. Is it doable? Suggestions on how? Or is this like t...

Come on guys and gals, post up a pick of your biggest plants. It’s raining for a delightful change so stuck inside and putting off doing uni haha.

Would love to see what’s around.

Oh nice, I have a much smaller one of those. Hopefully it gets similar spination as it grows. Thanks!

So I visited a fellow garden today and he had this one. I’m struggling to ID it... columnar, big spines.. hmm..

If I can get an ID I’m gunna try and get one, quite like how it looks

Many thanks,
Cheers,
Troy

I'm going to need a tin hat after saying this, but I don't think any cactus are particularly attractive out of flower! Some are less ugly than others but it's all about the flowers for me. Succulents on the other hand, I'm generally not fussed about the flowers but like the form, shape and colours ...

Thanks for the post, I particularly enjoyed the Euphorbia canariensis.

Lovely flower!

I boil the whole pot of soil with a lot of water in it on the stove. Then I put that in puts in the baggy. Seal it and then the next day I put the seeds in. Sometimes get algae, yet to get mould.

The answer has come back - I think he’s (Rikus) correct!

Euphorbia griseola ssp. griseola.

South east Queensland, a few hours west of Brisbane.

Euphorbias aren’t my thing either...but now I’m loving them dangit!!
