  1. is there any interest in these? make it worth my while.. and the owner..

    apparently theres two types of opuntia that are the best for fruit (according to Robert at fields) and this is one of them, not sure on the specific IDs ( if anyone can help with id let me know)

    The bloke told me anything impacting the fence is fair game, so if your keen hit me up with an offer.

    people do come every year to pick the fruit so I cant go too hard.

  2. I was going to wait until these guys settled in before posting, but I couldn't resist, this is the beginning of my more aesthetically pleasing ornamental cacti area.

    An Oreocereus ( was growing a bit askew in the pot it came out of so that's why its planted the way it is, im hoping it will straighten up but not sure on this one), and Pachycereus Pringlei is the big fella. fkn stoked with the Pringlei I am.

  3. i thought peeps might find this interesting, some will remember that rosei 1 from fields about 18 months ago(I have not been there since December 2015)...some of them appeared to be growing flat, almost as though they were squished, there was debate about what they were going to do... go dichotomous or maybe crest.

    Here is a pic of what one I have is doing now, and also a pic of one that hasn't done anything yet (just to show the flat appearance)

  4. I guess these are "released" now. bugger it, im not changing the title until at least 10 pairs are sold.

     

    I read somewhere here or maybe somewhere else that a clone isn't worth a damn really until its out there and several people have them. no point trying to name a clone for longevity if the only ones in your garden.

    get on it peeps and help create 2 new clones, 1/cm is pretty standard and if you order a 30cm it will be 33-35cm

     

    will need time to cut and heal before post

  5. its not really my business to discuss prices on an open forum sorry.

    But I can say we spent %80 of the day working trying to straighten up a plant that was leaning heavily into another plant, then at the end of the day we got a few cuts (paid for).

    there were 5 of us and we had a scaffold setup, it was quite an operation.
