chilli Posted November 10, 2008 Here are some photos from a private collection I saw today. I was in a rush so there's just a few snaps, if you want to see anything in detail tell me and I'll take some more next time I'm out that way. Check out the crested Astrophytum, and the Lophocereus shottii monstrose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chilli Posted November 11, 2008 Wow, two people managed to say that they hate me in this short thread so far. I'm not sure exactly how long stuff has been growing there, the guy is probably late forties and said he had some of them from when he was a kid and inherited the collection of an old guy up the road when he died.
