Yes this is in Aus! I have seen this at the old cactus shop at my local markets. They have retired and dont go there anymore. I will try and get in touch with them

EDIT; has anyone got the other boob cactus??? ie.. Eulychnia castanea?

It has a spiral form as well

I will be getting some of these in the springtime possibly. I can't wait! I'd also like a Eulychnia castanea f. spiralis.

I rescued a huge one from a deceased estate garden a while back.

Now to remember who ended up with it?

Failing that i'm fairly sure one of the CSSQ members has a largish stock plant that i'm sure he could be convinced to take some cuttings from for a small incentive.

Ive found a couple and are trying to secure them now. If I can manage it, I'll get propagating and there will be boobies for all, eventually...

would be keen DB!

...my plan is to graft a pair of boobs onto an existing column, put a hat on her and call her Stephanie.

Just make sure that she doesn't actually have a penis cactus downstairs.
