hey theres also a nice crested and grafted Echinopsis tubiflora on ebay now, so if you win the variegated tubiflora you can have the set, then all you need is the original one lol Smile :

careful with things liek solid yellow variegates. these are much cheaper because they are so much more sensitive, even grafts. a lot of nurseries here just pick off pups that are solid yellow and throw them away. things like Lophs, arios etc are still worth something but a nice 50/50 variegate, at least here, will cost 5X as much as a solid yellow one Smile

just be careful, many places try and sell off solid yellow as better, an dcharge more for them....but they should be cheaper Smile

pretty none the less! but rot easily.

Imagine how lucky you would be if, someone put up a rare plant like an ario or something, but accidently put it as buy it now instead of minimun bid, and it was like $10
