    Nothing prettier than cacti blooms! This year my Gymnocalycium was my only bloomer. My favorite bloomers are the Mammillaria with the ring around the top. Reminds me of the 1960s when people wore wreaths of flowers. Haha. Thanks for this wonderful compilation of blooming cacti! Loved it! 🌵🌵🌵🌵🌸🌸🌸💕😀

    I just adore your collection, Lyn! I've had no flowers from any of my desert friends this summer. My E. Obesa put out quite a number of buds but they never opened and just fell off. My little Echinopsis which I've had for a year might be too young to flower? Hmmm. There's a thing called patience which perhaps I don't have enough of. But looking at your wonderful green sanctuary I'm hopeful that maybe next year I'll have more luck? Living in hope and plant power! xxx

    Now should be when the last of our cacti come into flower. Most of mine have finished too, just two cacti left with buds on, (including an Astrophytum).
    I stopped fertiliser in the middle of August and am now already on a reduced lighter watering schedule of 14-21 days as well now. Temperatures are a little bit down compared to previous years by several degrees although lots of sunny spells.
    I particularly enjoyed your opinion of this list and it's nice to see your cacti at this time of the day with low light coming from the side. Thanks for posting! J.

    Hello one of my small cactus I've had a year is sitting wobbly in its pot. It seems healthy and is in a terracotta pot with drainage. Their are 3 stems and on one it's ever ever so lightly softer than the rest of it and some parts are paler green.
    What do you think could be wrong?
    Honestly I have very little experience and am not sure on what kind it is. I could send you a photo?
    When looking online it's hard to find an answer as there is so many different kinds! I'm just not sure on how to look after it at this point!
    Edit... I should also mention it has been wobbly ever since I repotted it when I got it

      Hi Rebecca :-D so sorry to hear that you are having problems with your cactus, it can depend on the type of cactus etc, but if you could post up a photo onto the British Cactus and Succulent society Forum page or the Irish Cactus & Succulent Forum pages on FB, we can all have a look at the photo and see how we can help and the best advice, the forums are open to everyone around the world, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful Wednesday XXXX

    Hey Lynn, I was wondering if you could suggest any beautiful types of cacti to me. I am filling out a seed order and was wondering if you could suggest some types that I should try to grow from seed? I already picked some astrophytum’s, ariocarpus, and lophophoras & Copiapoas but I was wondering if you could suggest any beautiful gymnocalyciums’ and any other that you think would be good to grow from seed and are interesting or beautiful? thank you in advance! hope your summer is going good 😊

      Hi Anna :-D thats fantastic news that you have filled out a seed order, its so much fun and very rewarding to grow cactus from seed, you have chose so well with the Astrophytums and Lophophoras and Ariocarpus and Copiapoa's they are all wonderful choice of cacti to grow from seeds, Gymnocalyciums are amazing to grow from seeds too, and good choices would be Gymnocalycium baldianum and Gymno mihanovichii and Gymno spagazenni as it has awesome spines, but all of the Gymnocalyciums are wonderful bloomers and grow well from seeds, Mammillaria's are fantastic to grow from seeds too, but your choice you have chosen would be my top choice too :-D Good luck with growing your wonderful seeds and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a sunny Sunday XXXX

    Does the domino cactus grow big on its own or are there different kinds that are larger?

    • @desertplantsofavalon
      @desertplantsofavalon  Год назад

      Hi Anabel :-D the Domino cactus is quite slow growing and they grow more taller columnar as they age rather than wider, there are quite a few different types of Echinopsis that can grow larger like the Echinopsis oxygona, but the Domino variety is smaller and slower growing and grows more columnar as they age, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful Wednesday XXXX

      I use a waterproof permanent pen that I get from the Artist shops, but I still find the ink would fade after a year or two, I now prefer to use pencil to write out the labels as that doesn't fade, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Friday XXXX
