Tripitaka Posted March 29, 2006 Those old Lophs are amazing! and the size of those Ario, I have to say it again, OMG! The Ariocarpi they tell me, are seed grown from the late 60's They had larger Lophophora clumps however an infection got in when they kindly agreed to someones request of a cutting, this was many years ago and needless to say they don't do that anymore. This is a pic from one of their six green houses! six I tell you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
