    Mystery plant

    some type of viola sp.
  2. the one i saw was at Hamiltons , larger than the one above , but probably pretty expensive. Was ready for the Autumn Show
  3. I have seen one at a nursery in Western Sydney. I was told it could possibley be for sale but didnt have a price mentioned. Good Luck
  4. This is absolutely terrible.......I have heard and seen of the odd bit of damage from disrespectful people, and small plant thefts but nothing like this....... karma will come back
  5. where do you find the time to find all this stuff out man

    My Plants

    The plants i collect and grow.
  7. I think i know the one your talking about, i think that one was Cereus hildmannius var uraguenensis If itsthe one from pic 1 on Bells Line of Road then it looks like thios now pic 2, the owners have done some chainsaw pruning, not looking too good now. Sorry to hijack this thread a bit. Lucid Sorry got the pics mixed
  8. The crest in the middle of pic 1 is about 30-35cm wide, and the cutting that is about 80cm tall are from the same mother plant that is pic 3. I saw it and asked the owner who was a very kind elderly gentleman, who said to take whatever i wanted. It is some type of Cereus sp. ,as the flowers show. Sydney RBG has something very similar, as does Hamilton's Cacti, but my investigations haven't confirmed what exactly.
  9. they look really healthy mate. well done
  10. thanks interbeing...just recieved seeds. cant wait til spring now..
  11. where are you located?? Im sure Sydney RBG has some in their Cacti and Succulent Garden, if you were going to have a look at it..
  12. was it this one??? there was alreadsome discussion about this one. congrats if it is , and good luck http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/San-Pedro-Cactus-Trichocereus-Peruvianus-5metres-high-/271190279422?pt=AU_Plants_Seeds_Bulbs&hash=item3f243344fe
  13. My favourite one also, so very true about the dry heat, but fortunately for our B.sanguinea's, or unfortunately (depending on what we're trying to grow and for all the other tropicals we have, B.aborea will appartely tolerate some cold also. I live in a pretty much consistantly cold area, with normally good rainfall. I read in a book that once the temp gets above 22-23c then that inhibits the flower development, which from what i have noticed on our plants in the yard is relatively true.
