I see it's mostly people from Australia on here. I envy your access to named clones and stuff. Anyone in the US want to trade? Or especially anyone in Southern California (save postage)

I want to put up some pictures of my cacti, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do that on this website. Any tips?

I'd be really interested in trading some cuttings with your friends. Also let me know if you come to So Cal and we could have a cup of tea or something.

Hi guys. I'm new here to this forum. Some of you may recognize me from other forums pertaining to related topics. I've been growing Trichocereus since probably 2007 or so. Started with a couple PC clone pachanoi that I had for several years. Eventually got more interested and procured some bridgesii cuttings. Got even more interested and decided to move from Washington state (not very good for growing cacti) to Southern California (perfect for growing cacti). Upon arrival to California, a friend I had met through another forum gifted me with a very nice collection of nice large potted bridgesii as well as some very nice what I guess I would call "Ecuadorian pachanoi". I have quite the collection going these days. Some very nice and spiritual plants. One thing I feel my collection could use is some of the named clone varieties, but they are few and far between here in the states. Anyways- hello all and I'm glad to be a member here.

Nothing so far today, but yesterday I did a little thinning of some pups on some of my bridgesii. I was given some nice big plants by a friend, but they were a little beat up and sunburned, plus got beat up a bit in transport. Have been doing some rejuvination by removing some of the old stems. Tons of new pups coming, so many that I've had to thin them out so they can have adequate spacing. Also moved some of my cacti around yesterday in the yard just to try a new arrangement and perhaps a better lighting situation.
