| Hi blowng its looking great spines are looking rather nice how old is it? I have never tried with feros i might try with some copiapoa. I have been busy pollinating all my asterias cvs should get some nice seed from these they are what ill be doing most of grafting with. |

| Its about 4 months old, sp.La Plaz, im pretty impatient so Ive been grafting some from all different genera just to hurry things up, its also good if worried about rot ,or sciarid fly larvae eating seedlings . |

| Ariocarpus fissuratus grafted at 30days in Jan 2010. So it is now 2 years old i could have pushed the growth a little more but that does not bother me as i use my grafts for seed production. |

| Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus grafted at 30 days in Jan 2010. At 2 years old. Check out what i think might be a crest forming. Fingers crossed.  |

| Amazing growth for 2 years especially the Fissuratus, I find those buggers grow so slowly even when grafted. Lets hope that is a crest, certainly looks promising to me, Kotsch crests look amazing.
I have been experiencing a strange growth habit with grafted ariocarpus, I think I remember cyptocarpa writing about it previously. What happens is a small section usually towards the base starts to pup, then suddenly a million little pups start to form next to it almost like a mutation of some kind ?
