Here is a beastie, thats just got a bit too big for me.
Its lot 95, an aloe kumaris ( plicatilis) hybrid, loves tons of water.
lot 95-.jpg
Huge obregonia, lot 88. Its not very easy parting with all these plants especially for someone as plant greedy as me :sad: . A friend visited to help & laughed about the plants I kept taking out of the auction as they were too nice to part with, maybe another day :lol: .

I think we will need to move into greenhouses & not have heating on in the house, not sure we can do both
What a cracking idea.
Or
Move all the plants into the house.
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.
