| I like strong spined Gymnocalycium but it is hard to get a good plant in here. Spegazzinniis all I have were germainated from seeds. spegazzinni v ornatum spegazzinni v cardenasianum spegazzinni v cardenasianum f super spines spegazzinni v armatum f nova I have several other spegazzinnni varieties. All spegazzinii are difficult to open flowers because of strong spines. I also collect other Gymnos. vatteri f super vatteri | |

| Are these grafted or own roots Hanaz? I really like the spegazzinii group of Gymnos. One of my favourite species (and the fmas. cvs. & ssp.) Seem to be very hard to get here in Aus. I did pick up a small cardenasianum a while ago and I know lewis also has one too. How old are they? Very nice plants TFS. | |

| Theyre awsome looking spines Han, you have some of the best plants. Do you create your own CV's? | |

| MichaelCactus I do not create any Gimno cv. I bought all seeds of attached photo from a seed supplier in VIC. Hanazono | |

| They're impressive looking plants! You certainly seem to know what you're doing with this sort of thing.
I was wondering, how old were they when you grafted them? | |

| Charlie I grafted these seedlings, 40 days after germination. You can start to garft seedlings 5 days after germination but Gymno's seedlings are too small. The grafting succsess ratio of 40 days old seedling is the best. Hanazono | |
