Stillman Posted June 8, 2012 It can't always be cacti. Some of my collection, mostly young specimens because I am a cheapskate and can't bring myself to pay the price of more mature plants. lol P lamerei P horombense maybe P saundersii a pretty common A obesum some smaller ones growing out apparently all different colours the one in the middle is supposed to be a bonsai type unsure if its obesum or other species, its a bit foggy in the green house lol. and I think the start of a seed pod on it fingers crossed (sorry shit photo) The one with the tag in it is supposed to be all white and some seedlings from a seed pod I stole from the inlaws Anyway myself and incognito were talking about the possibility of grafting these plants apparently thats how its done alot overseas heres an interesting link http://www.tropicanursery.com/adenium/propagation.htm Anyway my collection is only very young would be keen to see some of the more established plants in the community.

Moses Posted June 8, 2012 Hey if any of you guys have or know of a pachypodium namaquanum for sale i've always wanted one as when full grown i think they look very much like a triffid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stillman Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) I'll keep my eyes out for you. Cactuscarl have you ever got seed pods from the pachypodiums, apparently they are self fertile? Edited June 8, 2012 by Stillman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cactuscarl Posted June 8, 2012 I have noticed a few but they flower every year and iv only seen one here and there so i don't think they do it very often without a bit of help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sallubrious Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) I picked up a P.lamerie last week. It is approx 50cm and I got it for $20. I don't really know what their value is. He said he sells them cheap because he propagates them himself. Edited June 9, 2012 by SallyD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stillman Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) good price I reckon, from the real nurserymen 20 or so for anything 50cm is about right, from what I have seen, but you go to a chain nursery and you can double or triple it. Edited June 9, 2012 by Stillman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
