Cactus And Succulants

Featured Replies

Posted

I got home from work tonight and decided to photograph some of my cacti and succulants. As I'm renting they are all in pots and I love to see them grow and occasionally flower. The one below with the yellow flower has another 6+ buds about to flower, but I had been watching the current flower blossom and just couldn't wait any longer. Enjoy!

OUCH!!! That would have hurt, poor cat :o

had to take him to the vet to have them take them all out of his paw...and ever since then, he has stayed well away from it

Maisie,

 

9 out of 16 photos are succulents - not cacti!

 

That said the faciata looks good and the Echiovera are not too bad either for succulents. I do like the fish hook cacti, and the ferocactus (awesome), and I think I spied a epitheliana in amonsgt the washbone cacti (succulent) too .

 

Not a bad collection of succulents by the way. Keep at it.

 

Yours in cacti... and budgies

Suggest frames and prints for your walls in your home :)

 

As a renter, multiple frames on walls is a no no... but I have an idea which allows muliple photos... maybe a weekend project!?!?

Quite frankly Maes........I think they could be a very saleable item in a nice frame :)

I say no frames just get them printed on canvas.

 

 

Yeah... they would look awsome, but my budget won't allow it at the moment... maybe later :D
