Gollum Posted February 4, 2006 Here are some pics of my first grafting atempts. The first pic was taken on the 6/1/06 and the second was taken on the 4/2/06. Thats 29 days of growth. I am really happy with the growth rate an think i can see the start of some flower heads on another one i did at the same time. This is the one i think is about to flower. The little dot on just to the right hand side of the centre and the little dot just below centre look different to newly emerging pups. I know the pics a bit blurry but is it possible for them to flower from these positions? Or will the flowers come out from the centre only? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rev Posted February 4, 2006 apparently if the flowers come from anywhere BUT the centre then its not a true loph but rather an intergeneric hybrid with something like mammilaria or the like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodie Posted February 5, 2006 Couldn't this also be that due to it being grafted it is growing at a much quicker rate and the aeroles get pushed out at a faster? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salvi Posted February 5, 2006 Yes, I believe you're correct dodie. You can see this phenomenon in some of the lophs in the pereskiopsis competition over at the nook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
