Today I got these beauties! So what's your latest purchase? Please share pictures. So everyone can enjoy! Seeds also count as a purchase. And so do trees.
I got this succulet a couple weeks ago. It wasn't labeled. Anyone know the scientific and/or common name?
Flaming Katy, (Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana Poelln) - From the island nation of Madagascar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalanchoe_blossfeldiana That anyway is what my plant ID app in the phone says. So this could be wrong. It's really a very lovely looking plant!
I got this but the label was wrong It was labelled Maihueniopsis hoffmanii but I can't find any such plant. I'll see the bloke at this months Cactus club and get him in an armlock until he confesses
@Zigs - I absolutely LOVE what you just got for yourself! The long thorns make the perfect natural defense!
Still haven't found out what it is, we've got our Christmas meeting at the weekend, I'll see if I can find out
The plant ID app in my phone suggests that it's probably a Tephrocactus Aoracanthus (Lem), Maihueniopusis Golmerata (Hew), Cumulopuntia Boliviana (Salm-Dyck), or a Opuntia Fragilis (Nutt) - Whatever that means. You'd think that all this power and technology squeezed into our smartphones, would make life a little easier - But... It is very beautiful, and I like the long thorns. But I don't know how big it would get, or how quickly - I love all plants which can he used as a natural barrier against human intruders.
That sensitive plant is a weed where I live @S-H. I'm always yanking those out of my shade garden bed !!
Touch Me Not supplier turned out to be a fraud. As he sent me a tin can of olive oil, not the plant I asked for - He's either homelessly incompetent, or demented as well as blind. So I confronted him on chat, blocked him also. Plus I returned the item for a refund, (which has been approved).
