Giant Mamm.

21 years ago

As promised to Dawn...

This pic was taken in 1986 when the plant was given to me by an old friend who'd had it for more than thirty years, It looks like the one linked in Shrubs&Bulbs' response to "Cacti Id please" posted by hopiko earlier. (http://www.bcss.org.uk/forum/read.php?f=1&i=11830&t=11679#reply_11830).

This plant was approx 18 inches tall at the time of the photo, and I enjoyed it for another 12 or so years, before I lost it to vandals.

The plant had the name Mamm gigantea attached, though the name didn't match the description of gigantea.

I often wonder if it hadn't gone to the big desert in the sky, what would it be like now? Thanks to S&B I now have an idea!

Here Tis...
