What a cracking idea!
Wonder if we should all follow suit?
That's a lovely plant. Where did you obtain the seed?
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.

The seed came from Haworthia.co.za
Not cheap,;-£25 for 12 seeds but the seedlings from him are showing very good promise. He selects what he thinks will produce very good hybrids when mature.
I don't think he is not exporting at the moment due to Covid restrictions in South Africa.

Todays photo is a Prickly Pete hybrid that looks similar to yesterdays but has a very different geneology.
This is Artisan plants PP171
P1090294s.JPG
PP171 is from PP85 X "Japanese City"
Sorry but don't know what PP85 is.

Nice looker.
Do you want others to add to your thread?

Nice plants- I’d love to see some of your tylecodons as well.
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.
