Went to put away all my cacti from the garage into the basement today and figured id snap a few photos because they were looking so good even entering dormancy.

A Lophophora williamsii var. spiralis, it appears to be becoming rather elliptical in shape, and is developing a double growing point - becoming mostruosa??  Life is a shit sandwich - the more bread you got, the less shit you eat.

Awesome looking cacti people! Keep up the good work  I just repotted my 3-headed Peruvianus that I grew from seed from Koehres Kakteen. I've grown quite attached to it  Funky Monkey attached the following image(s): 20141109_132446.jpg (2,079kb) downloaded 362 time(s). 1415536071920.jpg (1,828kb) downloaded 362 time(s).

1st picture from left to right: Pachanoi, Brisgesii and Peruvianus. All 1 year and 4.5 months old, seedgrown. 2nd picture is my nearly 8 year old San Pedro stump with 3 different types of seedlings grated onto it. 3rd picture left is a grafted Bridgesii and right is a grafted Peruvianus (same age as the repotted seedlings).

Snow rolled in. Most plants are inside, but the escobaria and some of the echinocereus stay out. hostilis attached the following image(s): PB130694.JPG (710kb) downloaded 266 time(s).

Unusual pics, I hope the cacti survive their chilling. Life is a shit sandwich - the more bread you got, the less shit you eat.

@Hostilis:
I love your crested and monstrose seedlings! They're looking really good.
What species are they? Crossed with SS01?

There are several hybrids involved. TPM = T. peruvianus monstrose TPQC = T. pachanoi quasi crest TPC = T. peruvianus crest TPM x SS02, TPM x N1, TPQC x TPM, TPC x Juul's giant, and a few others. 3... 2... 1... BLAST OFF!!!!FFO TSALB ...1 ...2 ...3 My grafting guide

Spanishfly wrote:I hope the cacti survive their chilling. Escobarias are among the most cold tolerant cacti outside of the Opuntia family. Northern varieties of E. vivipara is hardy to -32°C! I'm keeping Echinocereus mojavensis, E. polyacanthus, Gymnocalicium gibbosum var. nigrum, and Escobaria vivipara out in zone 7a. I just brought in Chamacereus sylvestrii and some Trichocereus I'm breeding for cold tolerance after letting them freeze solid at -10°C for two nights. Theyre fine  I may have to freeze the Trichs again, I expected a couple to die!  Theres quite a few species that can handle snow [1]Push the limits and find new ones

Check out this list of cold hardy cacti. It was made by a cactus grower that I often visit his nursery. We live in zone 6b. Cold, snowy, dry (humidity) winters. Nevermind. Wont let me upload xlsx files 3... 2... 1... BLAST OFF!!!!FFO TSALB ...1 ...2 ...3 My grafting guide

For some reason I gets no nexus emails about threads im subscribed to anymore, so I haven't seent this thread in awhile lol All of your mutants you have hostilis make me so jealous, and that one yellow globular graft looks stunning what ever it is. Id be extremely interested in that list of cold hardy cacti so I could get some lifetime outsiders going  "we are not human being's having spiritual experiences, we are spiritual being's having human experience's."

Lol yea I seent that, I have the short stubby one and have always wanted the tall one to complete the duo "we are not human being's having spiritual experiences, we are spiritual being's having human experience's." (Teilhard de Chardin (1975?)

I think that's just the typical clone-a that either he named or somebody else named "tall face." 3... 2... 1... BLAST OFF!!!!FFO TSALB ...1 ...2 ...3 My grafting guide
