myco Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 i get much better success rates using a pair of tweezers, plucking pollen laden anthers and depositing them directly onto the pistilsalso much easier to clean the tweezers between pollinations etcTweezers are the go thats exactly what I do paint brushes are annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanishfly Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) May I post a few of my Astrophytums ??A. capricone this one had massive rot back in 2011, had to be severely cut back and re-rooted. But it made a complete recovery - flowers regularly. Edited October 14, 2015 by Spanishfly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanishfly Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) A. caput-medusae started from seed about 3 years ago - recently flowered. One of the few flowering plants on its own roots.

Spanishfly Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Some A. asterias - a group all started from the same batch of seeds I traded. I need to do some grafting soon - and got in a bit of practice - grafted one to a M. geometrizans. It was a successful attempt, has grown and flowered - interestingly, its compatriots still on there own roots have actually grown markedly better and flowered more profusely!

Spanishfly Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) My A. myriostigma - I have had this one for about 16 years. Edited October 14, 2015 by Spanishfly 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanishfly Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) My A. coahuilense has been interesting - in 2011 it started to pup, unusually, from the growing point - the pups had spines, which this species doesn´t usually. The pups now completely obscure the original stem. Edited October 14, 2015 by Spanishfly 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conv3rgence Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) That 16 year old myriostigma is amazing, looks like something from Uncle Chorn's Cabin. Edited October 15, 2015 by Conv3rgence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
