New purchases!

Post by edds »

Or maybe new arrivals would be more appropriate as they arrived today from a French eBay seller ( no Plant Passport here either!)

A couple of Hildewintera and a couple of Echinopsis

I got H.'Amethyst', H.'Andre Mora', E.'Oracle' and E.'Embraceable You'

Has anyone else been buying recently?

I’ve bought some hybrids from Wessner and Uhlig, just in case this source dries up soon. And some Pterocacti from Poland, I do like the subtle variations in form you see with these.

Glad it's not just me getting in some European purchases while it's still simpler!

Where are the pics though?

One Echinopsis looks pretty much like any other in January...

And young Pterocacti don’t look anything special, they need a few years..

Not all new, at this time of year I do not completely segregate new plants. All the Pteros are new, probably half of the Echinopsis / Tricho hybrids.
