GoOnThen Posted November 14, 2009 I dragged my daughters of to 75 year old Mike's amazing garden a couple of weekends ago and after chatting with Mike for some time the girls picked out a cacti each and I grabbed a couple of cuttings of the Mike bridgesii clone. Mike also gifted free cacti to each of us which was a lovely gesture. We also bought a bowl with three cacti to support cancer research (his wife passed away three years ago of cancer). Mike and his wife planted most of the collection from seed and it was there life for 40+ years. All West Aussies that are interested in cacti should go and have a look at Mike’s collection and most of it is for sale. Reading a previous thread the pink flower one is a mammilaria is the other a mammilaria as well? I have been looking after my folks place while they are away and I took the opportunity to take a couple of photos of there zygo? There is a lot of buds if any ones interested I can take more photos as they come out ( I will use a camera not my phone next time) Have Fun Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoOnThen Posted November 14, 2009 Hey Gilligan Mike is very cool in his own way I was talking to my brother after I posted and realized they weren’t zygo I will check and see if they have tags. There are a number of different ones coming into flower as well. Bruce and the dragon fruit are going great. Cheers Got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
