Re: Overwintering cacti outside tips
Last year was great, in total darkness and a heat mat, only had a few mealies that I fought off. This year is a different situation with added lights and possibly a heat mat. I just want to ward off frost and elongation

New overwintering set up
Please let me know what you think. Constantly battling for space with my parents 😅. Added small amount of lights for 10 hour days and will add a heat mat underneath to wade off the frost. Hoping that it is cold enough that they don't grow even with the lights on. Might add a bit of insulation around...

Why are my lithops seedlings dying?
They are about a year old and it feels like they're dying from over watering but I am unsure. These are the first lithops I have grown from seed. I hope the attached picture is clear. I have moved some around cos I had cacti in there that got too big for the tray and disturbed some lithops. I had a ...

Flowering Plants of South Africa, vol. 16, plate no. 620
The article is in this book, but it might just be a painting. I now have an account with jstor through uni so I will be reading up on these plants. There's a lot of old bcss bulletins!

Trichocaulon cactiforme and Trichocaulon similis
Hi, I would like to have some more information on these two plants, and why they are the same. They have both been lumped into Larryleachia cactiformis. I found articles on them on plants.jstor.org but locked behind a paywall. These are really fascinating plants, reminiscent of Pseudolithops in my o...
