Re: Neoporteria senilis
That’s rather splendid Ralph. It is tempting to collect the various forms...

Re: Neoporteria senilis
I think this is the same form Ralph has. I got it from him anyway. Wild but fairly soft spines. Another white plant I have has much tougher spines.
And this is a seedling from a brown-spined parent. The roots are just starting to show. Already the spines are a bit sharper; the parent looks touchable but is really quite dangerous.

Re: Neoporteria senilis
I particularly like the second one Ian.
I’m tempted to cross my 2 forms and see what transpires...
