I think I may be able to get some more cuts from the original source,ive a feeling that its getting water from one of the gardens on the other side of the fence,as its in a corner there is three possibilities.its in pure Perth (west aus)coastal plain sand which is about as average as a soil gets.as I said I've done 0 to help it along!yes Dreamwalker it's awesome the way that colour transition occurs.my entire collection is in pots so I don't know what to do about that.leave it or pot it.i think ill leave it to become a beastie and then reevaluate.
-
I can prob get some more cuts if you guys are keen,just not sure how many.
-
That was fast eg,was replying to jox and bam you've provided a link to the photo I was talking about.so cereus forbesii it is.
-
Yeah I really don't know,there is one image that comes up if cereus forbesii is googled which looks exactly like this.its the only photo online I can find similar.i was shocked when I saw it.last time I did it was just those few dull green sections at the base.

I actually really like that little volcano planter,I think that effect would go great with cacti,in the first photos what is the reddish stuff your using as mulch looks a bit like scoria but I can't quite make it out?

Same I don't know if I should laugh. ,cry ,breathe or shit.the loss of logic in some of the op blows my tiny mind.....correct me if I'm wrong and this shat me the moment the media used the term synthetic LSD,is LSD not a synthetic??a molecule not found in nature??!! -
Brendo a.Valdezii is the classic case I was thinking of.i was not referring to plants stolen from collections.i should be a little clearer before making a point.im sorry that wasn't .

I feel I need to ask our community what response we should make when it is obvious we are looking at plants that are clearly illegally collected from the wild.plants that are too large to possibly be in collections legally given their growth rates and sizes in said collections.i have seen such things a few times in last month and it has been interesting to see peeps response to photos.some state envy for ownership of such plants and then there's the important few who ask or state such plants must be "x" old.implying the obvious....should we not state the fact that logic dictates what we are being shown is illegal and show a strong disapproval...I'm very tired but does this make sense and what does my fav online family think of this......
-
My "proof" is the plant had to have been illegally taken from the wild due to the time in which it was discovered by science and its size and it being in there collection in the first place
-
Ok.as I was just about to post,I realise I left this out,NONE of the things I have seen were connected with sab posts or images.the examples were on other sites.i don't wish to get more specific.but I have seen an interesting duality between "amazing plants thanks for sharing" and peeps who clearly know these specimens are not legal due to there known growth rates and size in said collection.i have seen posts happy to ignore the obvious when these people should be ,in my opinion branded criminal....

The only plant I've ever had that died from classic ground up root rot was a cc sourced bunnings plant.
