| This was last Autumn, but I have only just got around to posting the pic. Oh well. Enjoy.  Might put a few other shots of the same thing from different angles, if I get around to it.

| Thanks mate. Yes it's older than me. So at a guess form what the person I bought it from said, about 32 years old.

| I love the structure of these slow-growing species. Some of them - Arios in particular - look downright otherworldly. |

Yeah, the texture of them really gets me. Especially some of the colliflower like cv. Never had a chance to touch one of those yet. |

| Yeah many of these slow grower stone cacti are great and weird looking! I bought one of each representative last summer. I bought small arios [I like to buy small plants, and bigger arios are very expensive, those I bought flower but they're really small. Maybe if a get the grip of growing slow growers I buy a bigger plant...
Great plant trigonus! Isn't it too brownish? Is it the 'hard' growing? Is it in full sun? |
