Recommended Posts

A few days ago I had the privilige of visiting a couple of rad ass cactus collections. Here's a pic of something I thought you folk's might get a kick out of, I did. It's a mini ariocarpus in flower.

The plant itself must have only been 2-3 cm across. The flower being 3-4 cm across.

According to it's tag it was an Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus v. albiflora X fissuratus.

If you do want some seeds let me know and I will ask the grower about it.

Here's another pic I took that day.

Lovely...

Ariocarpus Kotschoubeyanus v Albiflorus

That's the size they flower at and don't get much bigger than that (biggest one around is 6-7 cm diamtre). Agfter that they just start developing LEVELS of tubercles and may reach 3-4cm in height!

Lovely plant...glad you have it :)

I forgot to add the x fissuratus bit in the original post.
