Hmmmmm, i could be persuaded to let go of one of my lil variegated echinopsis, the persuasion would most likely come in the form of a 4 ribbed Gymnocalycium  hahahahahahahahaha. Sorry Betty, couldnt help myself
CC, man im bustin to get back there, soooooo many bargains. I think we should organise a meet of some sort down that way, would be a bugger to organise but well worth it for a bunch of cactophiles like us  |

| Wait your jealous? Its nothing compared to all your plants ive seen Betty, Im pretty sure you would have one aswell. I think 4 Astro sp's for my Echinopsis Variegated would be a fair trade... hahahaha.
Sadly Betty, they never opened 8| I think the buds are still on it all this time.. cant remember lol.
Yeh CC, one day.....
Id goto a meet there, but almost certainly wouldnt be able to make it, and i dont like starting fights over things, leave them Astro's Hahaha.
Also Betty, why are you selling up! Theres an awsome houseful/garden of amazeing cacti so close, and you wanna move! |

| You guys will get there one day!! hopefully one day when i am also there lol.
Hakuun aborted buds? perhaps you didn't water enough. the small buds on your plant now will remain that size in a sort of suspended animation until spring arrives at which point they will do one of two things. a) flower or b) abort. both are likely. good thing about Astros is they flower almost continuously once they get going, all the way from srping through to autumn.
here ya go Betty. found these in my photobucket archive:

| I looked at it this morning, and the buds arent on it, so they aborted. I dont think it was that i didnt water it enough, i think it was that i repotted it.
When i 1st got it, i got 1 flower from it, but it closed up before i thought to take a photo.
Nice one Lewis, Swap ya hahahha:P |
