Disocactus speciosus aurantiacus

Post by Acid John »

It came into bud at the end of last year. This is it this morning in a 3 1/2" pot, the plant is about 4' long.

Yup ... stunning
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
