Beautiful, Chanin!

Hey, where have you been? We were about ready to send out a search party! ;-)

Nice. You mean that plant's leaves aren't thorny enough to qualify as "spiny"? I think a good post would be for all members to show photos of their arms and legs and what damage their collections have done to them. ;-)

Hey, cool shirt Chanin! Last winter I visited the owner of The Cactus Patch at his greenhouse in Wisconsin. For 25 years or so he and his wife, and his kids have been selling cacti and succulents at the Farmer's Market in Madison, Wisconsin. Now that I think of it, I saw some spinies in his greenhouse too - Dyckias I think.

Nice to see some pictures from you again.

Hi Chanin - welcome back!
Thanks for the usual excellent photos. I do like that aechmea, but it's a bit too cold here in winter for me to grow it well and do it justice.
Have to settle with admiring others', and that is a fine specimen.

Cheers,
K
