gtarman Posted December 19, 2013 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. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gtarman Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Nah. Gotta have a bit of danger to keep it realistic. Fondling uncharted boobies is only for the brave. Edited December 19, 2013 by gtarman 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shortly Posted December 20, 2013 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.
