Reptilian Loph

Recommended Posts

As this Loph started growing in these warmer months, it has showed this odd trait of shedding its outer skin.

lol thats okay, there is an Ariocarpus cultivar named "Godzilla"which looks funky reptillian .

I have a grafted Lophophora fricii from a mix bag of seeds which has a cauliflower texture to its skin ,variety or cultivar "cauliflower" perhaps?

This one is pupping it's nuts off at the moment. Not sure why as I've got another of a similar size that isn't growing half as fast. Wonder if the mite scared it into thinking it was going to die so it decided to make every day count :scratchhead:
