Micropuntia pulchella

Post by chris68 »

These have performed well for me this year, 5 flowers from this small plant. I have several of these slender stemmed 'gracicylindrica' forms and a few more squat plants with shorter fatter stems which you can make out in the picture. Sorry its a bit blurred in places - taken in a hurry!

Thanks Ray, one of the other slim stemmed forms chucked out a flower at the weekend which was darker pink with slightly different shaped petals - both these forms were forced to have 'relations' so we shall see what happens!
