Who said growing cacti from seed is difficult ? I was watering this Melocactus the other day and found these seedlings under it Smile They are a touch hard to see but you get the idea.

I have had the same thing happen to my melo's but also have had it happen to my pelechyphora valdezianus which is hard to grow from seed so i thought any way but then noticed i had several seedlings growing in the pot of which i had not sowed myself. Nature doing its thing. Smile

They're nicely developed little seedlings. Any idea how old they would be?
