Bez Posted March 29, 2007 (edited) Hi, I'm from the UK, does anyone know anywhere to get this Eileen over here as everyone I've heard talking about her is in Aus... Does she seed or is she only spread by cuttings? Cheers. BTW Very nice cacti! I would love some like that... Edited March 29, 2007 by Bez Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
planthelper Posted March 29, 2007 eileen is a clone, so she's not probagated by seed... bez, in case you can't get your hands on one, pm me in 5 months time and i send you an eileen cutting. interessting to observe that less light makes her more glaucasious.

Prophet Posted March 29, 2007 Does anyone else find her a very fast grower aswell?? like definately faster than other bridgesii's!!!! Most of my bridgessii seem to be fast growers, "kai" seems to be kinda slow as is TBM but most of my standard bridgesii seem to grow nearly as fast as pachanoi, i haven't seen them stop growing in fact. I've only got two small eileen plants and they seem to be getting there, i'll just have to wait til they get bigger and put on a growth spurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonic Posted March 30, 2007 (edited) What is this "kai" bridgesoid you are talking about Prophet? Can you tell me a bit more about it? Post a pic too if possible, am interested to know what it is. Thanks. Edited March 30, 2007 by tonic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prophet Posted March 30, 2007 "kai' was purchased from SAB and is supposed to be one of those semi-monstrose forms of bridgesii. When i got it it appeared that way but now it is putting on more regular bridgesii growth (ie no semi-monstrose any more) and is a little slow than my other bridgesii. I will get a pic shortly when i have the opportunity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonic Posted March 30, 2007 (edited) Hey thanks Prophet, 'kai' sounds like an interesting varietas [or whatever you want to call it ], will look into getting some into my collection. Was it a cut you got from SAB or was it pre-rooted? Love to see a pic definitely. planthelper Hi mate, will most likely be keen to grab one of those Eileen cuts in 5 months time, if that's ok. Thanks. Edited March 30, 2007 by tonic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bez Posted March 30, 2007 Thanks Planthelper, I'll let you know. She certainly does look a mighty fine cactus... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strangebrew Posted March 31, 2007 interessting to observe that less light makes her more glaucasious. Yeah, that seems to be the case with all the bridgesii i have seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
