Spikes and Spines

@BobStewart723 It's a lovely little plant, enjoys the sun, mine flowered quite well this year.

On the list of cacti I have always wanted to grow but never have the opportunity, is the unusual and rare Ortegocactus macdougallii. It is a small (golf ball size) plant from a small location in the mountains of southwest Mexico.

@PeterHainesGeo Thank you, much appreciated!

Fossil twitter...wondering what these might be? Flatworms or sponges or something ? Provenance unknown unfortunately. #FossilFriday #Fossils

Past Pictures - And just how big is that flower on Edithcoleas grandis ? Pretty big ! Here's a matchbox for scale. #Asclepiad #succulents #PlantsAreCool

Past Pictures - For those guessing, yes, it's Edithcolea Grandis. A monotypic genus sometimes called "The Persian Carpet Flower" First plant of this to ever flower for me. I do find them difficult to keep going through winter though. #Succulent #Asclepiad #PlantsAreCool

Past Pictures - Another shot from a few days later. I like to think of this one as the Queen of the Asclepiad World. But just what is it ? #Succulent #Stapeliad #PlantsAreCool

Past Pictures - One from last season. A first time flower for me. But what is it ? #succulents #asclepiad #PlantsAreCool #CactiandSucculents

@malenafleon @BobStewart723 @LithopsStories How did you go with these Malena ? I have grown them from seed, they seem to maybe be a little easier than Lithops for me... which is good because I'm not good at growing Lithops ! 😉

@BobStewart723 @SpikesSpines @LithopsStories any tips on how to sow L. margaretae? Maybe like Lithops?

@malenafleon Hi @malenafleon thank you for that, very nice. I've had some things that have kept me away from Twitter, but I've still taken lots of plant photo's so I will have to get back to sharing with everyone soon ! Hope you and your plants are well !! #plantpeoplearethebestpeople ! 😀

@SpikesSpines Hope you are ok. Miss your twits 🍀

Flowering Now - The tiny Blossfeldia liliputana is getting ready for another season of flowers and seed! Needs a drink! #cacti #succulents
