T. lophophoroides with fruit forming next to flower from about 4 months ago. I think its the one I jammed in a L. texana first, so does anyone know if T.lophophoroides is self-fertile or not? most evidence suggests yes i think :(

Accidentally posed in wrong forum. Mods move to cacti and succulents please. Unless the offer of trading my copiapoa offsets is enough to keep it here?

The two that are pupping heavily is just due to the Pereskiopsis pushing the Loph hard, making it grow too fast, some simply grow fast others pup like an insane beast.

The possible variegated one has potential, Lophs have a tendency to go all sorts of colours when young and grafted. However I think this one may retain the yellow colour, the pattern looks like a typical variegation and the pups are growing from a variegated section of the plant and are also displaying the trait. I think you have an above average chance of a variegate, if the growth pattern remains the same or increases over the next few months you have a variegate :)
