    Epicphyllum - Ode to Epiphyllum

    these are the ones that my local bunnings had. they are around $10 and they are really just small cuttings but they grow so quickly in my opinion they are worth it. So many different types.

    Need some advice again :)

    thanks for letting me know, i will definitely keep a look out!
  4. Hello again guys, Id like your help identifying these few cuttings I got today. Ive identified austrocylindropuntia subulata but thats all I have manages. (the day I can do this myself will be a brilliant day haha) Thanks everyone.

    Epicphyllum - Ode to Epiphyllum

    also, they sell them at my local bunnings quite often. I picked up one called #123 "Ambrosia" and the pink flowers are nearly 25cm across, they are HUGE! I definitely recommend that one if anyone sees it.

    Epicphyllum - Ode to Epiphyllum

    I started off with these when I first got into gardening, they are amazing plants! and they are really easy to grow new colours, I have a few ones I have made. Next time they flower I will take photos. They grow like weeds, the grow anywhere and they grow fast! they seem to love it in perth.

    lucky you told me, I would have never thought to eat them haha. Yeah I have been peeping around but i am new and i know thats a downfall, thanks for letting me know about the fruits though. So any other type of cereus will do?

    Oh interesting, do they all produce fruit? The same kind of fruit? Can you eat them? I believe I only have the one but I am planning to get as many different types of cacti as I can get my hands on. So ill keep a look out. Thanks for letting me know, ill be sure so grab one if i see one know.

    Cactus Videos!

    ☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ, in the video labeled Cactus collection 2012, at 5:28. What is that cactus (?) in the pot? I see it around a lot but have never come across it for sale or with a name attached. If anyone knows that would be amazing. Great videos, always enjoy looking at advanced gardens.
  11. this is the type that my plant grows I enjoy them.
  12. I have one plant that produces red skinned and white flesh, by far my favourite one. I'll post a photo later. this is probably the first plant I brought and it's about 8 years old and only started getting fruit around 3 years ago. but I do go out at night and fertilise the flowers myself with a paint brush.

    oh. well I'd love up and grab a whatever I can afford, I am just getting started so anything i can get a hold of is a bonus

    Ok See the way the Trichocereus Spachianus is just snapped off the mother plant, do I need to do anything different when I go to plant it? I am going to leave it out to dry really well and then put it in my standard potting medium.

    these are all so beautiful! can I ask a question that may be something obvious. Do cacti only flower when they are mature? I only see the giant or really old cacti flowering. That may just be my observations. Do you have any "steps" or "tricks" to help to encourage flowering? Thanks guys!

    I think the way to go is too just wait around for council garden collection, I am pretty sure you can google which suburbs are having them. I see frangipanis every single time!

    potted cacti sale.

    Hey man, Id love the KK242, but can I have a look at how it looks where the pups have been taken? normally it wouldn't bother me (definitely not one for perfection) but it is going in a place where all angles can be seen. Hit me up with a PM. Caitlin.

    west aussie's trade and sell thread

    EDIT: taken away This is the address, they have a tonne of advance stuff which unfortunately isn't for sale but they have cuttings off the same plants so you know how they will look in a decade or so, very nice and knowledgable lady was there working as well. However, I will warn they are a tad expensive. Hopefully this is something you guys can go and take a look at.
