PD. Posted June 11, 2006 I finally got around to getting some pics of the cactus that lives up the road. The owner said she put it in the ground in 1988 and has never done a thing to it, not even water. I asked nicely and was granted three cuttings all over five foot long .

PD. Posted June 11, 2006 Nice cactus too, does it flower? She had heaps of flowers in late January/early feb.... I think. My memory isnt that good, haha it is pretty shit actually. But yeah i think it had just finished flowering when i got the cuttings, which was late feb, i think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teonanacatl Posted June 11, 2006 Wow nice plant. You should collect some pollen from people and ask if you can pollinate hers, lots of potential. I merged the two threads then deleted the out of place posts, tricky ay Torsten if you read this i worked it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torsten Posted June 11, 2006 can others still see the pics? I think the migration might have confused the system as I can't get them to show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beeker Posted June 11, 2006 Wow. That has got to be like 300 ft of cactus. Very impressive. Nice score Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woof woof woof Posted June 12, 2006 That is a very nice cactus indeed! It must be at least 15 years or older. Probably even older. Most of us were still in diapers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
