These two plants have usually flowered at during late autumn/early winter, and being so cold the flowers never opened properly imagine my surprise when I found these coming into flower, and actually getting to see them in their glory. Very Happy
Haageocereus pseudomelanostele:



Haageocereus elegans:



Enjoy, CP

Wow, beautiful CP.
The flowers kind of remind me of an Echinopsis flower.
I really like the spines golden yellow colour too.

No fair Sad Everytime one comes up on ebay, i get ready to buy it and then pull out at the last minute and decide not to bid, or it gets to high for me.
Awesome CP.

Thanks guys, these are quite easy to grow, certainly no issues here in Tas. These ones are approaching 30 yo and over 600mm tall. I've never tried them outdoors but I'm tempted to try a cutting... maybe next year just to see how hardy they are.
