Thanks, I would not call it a big success. I won't tell you how many seeds were planted Rolling Eyes

I am pretty good at forgetting to water them...................especially this time of year when they are only a few months old, then in summer when the temps are a bit too high. But I am happy to have a couple or one of each Wink

I probably started growing form seed about two and a half years ago, so lots of mistakes and errors along the way, but hey got to learn somehow.

Oops I just realised I left out my favourite Laughing

Very nice Betty! wondering where you get your seed if its not a rude question?????

Subject: Re: My Ariocarpus definitely not huge :) Wed May 21, 2008 10:22 pm

Not rude at all Smile

I got most of my seeds off of ebay. Botanical-Archive in Italy they list in Australian ebay now after I started buying a lot from them, rare-cactus in Canada and kaktus-king in Germany. I have found all to be pretty good with germination.

I also get a catalogue form Kakteen-Haage but you can order online from them at www.kakteen-haage.de
