I'll have quite a few arabicums, almost 100% germination with those... ! Only a few somalense though at present. These are almost a year old. They are all a bit sleepy at the moment, when they wake up a bit more they will be ready for new homes.
Please feel free to send me a message, interested to see what you have for trade

I've been growing Adeniums from seed for years - obesums, arabicums and somalense mainly. I'll have some available fairly soon, germination has been very good so I'll have extras. Might also have a few other caudiciform types, including Petopentia natalensis and Dioscorea elephantipes as they germinated better than expected too !
I'd love to discuss a trade of a few of A. arabicum and A. somalense when you know exactly how many spares you have.
I'd like to thank everybody who contributed to this post of mine. I took the opportunity, now lockdown restrictions are easier, to visit Craig at Williams Cactus near Barnsley, with a friend of mine, on Tuesday.
I'm very glad I did so (and that I waited - thanks for that advice too!) as he had a really interesting selection, with quite a few caudiciforms, and some really nice plants. He (and his father) were very knowledgeable and helpful and we spent a good couple of hours there. Prices seem very reasonable, and I would recommend them.
Worrying though to hear that the combination of Brexit and Covid-19 may have sigfnificant implications for cacti and succulent availability.
Thanks again to all
Alan
Bought quite a lot! Was worried things might get harder to find, and it was a long drive from the East Coast!
Tylecodon singularis, Pelargonium loratum, Pachypodium brevicaule, Monadenium aff invenustum, Commiphora confusa, Euphorbia aeruginosa, Monadenium yutannum, Monalaria sp, Euphorbia delphinense, Dioscorea elephantipes, Avonia alstonii, Matalea cyclophylla, Commiphora milbraedii, Pachypodium densiflorum, Euphorbia trichadenia, Euphorbia bupleurifolia
You did do well & all so healthy looking, the e.bupleurifolia isn't what the label say its a hybrid might be japonica.
e.bupleurifolia is normally a single chunky stem.
I like the monilaria that looks cute

varied collection of succulents and cacti but I especially like Euphorbia's, Ariocarpus and variegated agaves.
