Is booby cactus in oz?

Recommended Posts

You know that Myrtillo monstrose that looks like boobies? Is it in Oz?

I figure that I like boobies, and I like cactus. So it seems only natural that I would like booby cactus.

Someone needs to cultivate a spineless variety for easier handling.

Nah. Gotta have a bit of danger to keep it realistic. Fondling uncharted boobies is only for the brave.

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 haven't seen IXOXI post for a while.

I haven't seen the boob or the crest over here but I haven't been out looking lately. In my time searching Ebay over a few years I think I have seen both on the east coast.

Cheers

Got

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...

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.

Well I'll be damned, there is a booby cactus on eBay. Hope one of the cactus-heads on here gets it :)
