Change Posted October 14, 2016 Hamiltons crest gifted from Hillbilly. Thanks again mate, Im hoping in a year or 2 those reverted columns throw out some flowers Has anyone here got a Hamiltons crest to flower before? 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sagiXsagi Posted October 23, 2016 ^^^^^^ wow what and awesome specimen dude, wish it wouldn't revert, but I haven't explored it enough, I just started up-potting them ozzie monsters.. So ... I have been playing around with this Echinopsis , seynesii I think, the mother plant used to do a couple pups, but didn't seem to ever grow them.. now a smaller plant from a different source grew a pup enough to graft or even root, I left it be today.. \] I am somewhat fascinated by the the fact some monsters revert and often like to grow those reverts and some negelected pachanoi crests from which I took couple cuttings 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sagiXsagi Posted November 21, 2016 i can hear it whispering : "repot me... please" - pretty decent specimen if you ask me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trevyn Posted November 21, 2016 That's the pic of it coming home from the nursery. I have it at work in a new pot. I will take a current pic and post later. I also trimmed it because out of all my cacti, this one was the most vengeful. "De-fanged" maybe a better term. She was bitey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Change Posted November 23, 2016 Use of sexual terminology Plants have a complex lifecycle involving alternation of generations. One generation, the sporophyte, gives rise to the next generation via spores. Spores may come in different sizes (microspores and megaspores), but strictly speaking, spores and sporophytes are neither male nor female. The alternate generation, the gametophyte, produces eggs and sperm. A gametophyte can be either female (producing eggs), male (producing sperm) or hermaphrodite (monoicous, producing both eggs and sperm). In groups like liverworts, mosses and hornworts, the dominant generation is the sexual gametophyte. In ferns and seed plants (including cycads, conifers, flowering plants, etc.) the sporophyte is by far the most dominant generation. The obvious visible plant, whether a small herb or a large tree, is the sporophyte, and the gametophyte is very small. In seed plants, the female gametophyte, and the spores that give rise to it, are hidden within the sporophyte and are entirely dependent on it for nutrition. The male gametophyte consists of a few cells within a pollen grain. The sporophyte of a flowering plant is often described using sexual terms (e.g. "female" or "male") based on the sexuality of the gametophyte it gives rise to. For example, a sporophyte that produces spores that give rise only to male gametophytes may be described as "male", even though the sporophyte itself is asexual, producing only spores. Similarly, flowers produced by the sporophyte may be described as "unisexual" or "bisexual", meaning that they give rise to either one sex of gametophyte or both sexes of gametophyte.[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_reproductive_morphology 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
