Hi all, I'm Ian.
Long time lurker, very sporadic poster and recent attendee at the Nottingham branch for the first time since before Covid.
I grow a little bit of everything and have done for about 3 years now. My current particular focus is on caudiciforms and my small by ever increasing collection of turbinicarpus, coryphantha, and escobaria among other things. If anyone has any to offer that I don't have, I'd likely take them off your hands! I'm currently growing plants in a small conservatory so the focus is on smaller plants that don't take up too much room!

Hello
Growing in Nottingham for the past 4 years and recently found my way to a Nottingham branch meeting. A few plants on a windowsill has very quickly turned into a greenhouse full!
Attempting to grow a range of turbinicarpus, coryphantha, escobaria and several other cactus genera. Tylecodons, pelargoniums and conophytums keep me occupied in the winter and an ever expanding number of gasteria live under the bench.

Welcome to the forum Ian
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.

Re: Hello
Welcome Ian, you have some nice plants there. Definitely worth going to your branch meetings, where you will hear interesting talks, chat to other enthusiasts and usually be able to buy plants from visiting speakers or other members, this is a good way to build up your collection.
