Getafix Posted September 18, 2015 Mushroom man may be able to help you out. If this pups I will certainly share it around. Getafix 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Getafix Posted September 18, 2015 I am not sure of anyone else apart from Mushroomman and myself having this hybrid. He will let us know if I'm wrong. I love this Trich Getafix 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zed240 Posted September 18, 2015 I have it too. There was a guy called Ben who used to sell on eBay under the name Kerstincactus, (spelling?), who sold it. He was in the riverland in SA somewhere. I don't think he owned the garden or let people go visit it. I have a 40cm rooted tip growing and stump with 2 pups. I am thinking of grafting those pups in summer. I have heard 2 names being given to this plant, "short spined terscheckii" and "melonii" 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nrivers Posted September 18, 2015 I believe it is different to Dawson's short spined terscheckii? Will keep an eye out for Kerstincactus! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a super interesting hybrid, can't wait to see it flower. Getafix 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spooge Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) Was this the mother off the terscheckii x seed you sent me Olive? yupples, both yowie and the Bondi scop are x'd with this plant, and a cereus as well but i didn't use cement. have i sent you them both mushy?

Berengar Posted September 25, 2015 Hey Olive, thanks! I'm good, little bummed out because the growing season here is ending. This plant looks really great, I have a couple grafts of both crosses that are now about an inch in diameter, and are already showing a wide range of characteristics. Can't wait to see what they'll look like in a year. Btw, that SG validus looks much better IRL than I can get on the pictures, I can easily see it becoming my favorite cactus. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mushroomman Posted September 25, 2015 Berenger can you post some pics of your terscheckii x grafts? Id love to see them and also have been wondering how your escayachensis graft is looking now? I just grafted a couple the other week! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berengar Posted September 25, 2015 Sure, I'll take some pictures in a day or two and post them in the grafts thread. And the escayachensis hasn't grown much because I had to regraft it 3 times, but is looking quite nice, I'll post some pictures of it too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
