Ahead of me.
I'm potting on seedlings .... using up the new pots purchased on Saturday!
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.

I thought I was done and then somehow convinced myself I needed more. I put in another order with adblps last night…
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.

ADBPLS offered a nice range of Aloes this year but germination has been poor to non existent.

Oh no, I got some of these as well and I am planning to sow these only this weekend. I was waiting for the weather to improve.

I find Aymeric's cactus seed germinates pretty well. Perhaps he got the Aloe seed in from elsewhere...
