very very nice collection mutant,

Region, 35 bucks for that plant is fine in my opinion, caput is still a very rare plant in this part of the world. A nice addition to any collection

Unknown cactus bought from Hamiltons yesterday with a closed flowerbud, opened fully late afternoon today.

M. Sheldonii starting to come out, it's planted outdoors and been subjected to both torrential rain aswell as full real strong sunlight for a few months now.


The neighbours "tree climber" in bloom last night. Photo taken in the late afternoon before they all opened fully.

Another one in flower, think this one is a Gymnocalycium horstii.

Got alittle pup growing aswell that I'll have to try to transplant at a later stage.

Finally got around to finishing off a new growing bench for my little friends, mostly full already but a fair few of these will be set free in the backyard come next spring.



Working on getting them all out of the ugly plastic pots and into terracotta pots, still lots left to repot!

Here are examples from my modist (around 100 pots) balcony collection of Mexican cacti. The pictures were taken this summer, which is long gone, here in Eastern Europe. Grown in full sun, no shade at all (i like them to look natural way). Nothing particularly special: mainly lophos and a few azteks, arios, strombos.
