Cactus / luethyii

A Mammillaria luethyii has been in flower.
I rooted an offset of a grafted plant.
Many other luethyiis will be in flower very soon.

Cactus / caput-medusae seedlings

The grafting of A. caput-medusae seedling is quite easy. The scion also will grow well and you can expect some flowers in 2nd year after the grafting.
On the other hand, own-rooted seedling is difficult.
Seedlings are crabby and stop growing if the condition was mismatched with them.
I sowed seeds in 5 pots on 28/08/2010 and kept in a wet-box without repotting.
It seems the time of the repotting because they have grown as large enough.

Cactus / herrerae

Mammillaria herrerae propagated from offsets have been in flower.
Grafted one has also been in flower.

Cactus / hanazono kabuto

Hanazono kabuto will show the original character when the plant became a mature age.
The photo is a seedling of hanazono kabuto, 5 cm diameter.
This one has shown the character already.
This will be a very good hanazono kabuto in future.

Cactus / Astrophytum hybrid

This Astrophytum hybrid is the 1st filial of capricorn v senill x super kabuto.
I degrafted several years ago.
Since body looks very healthy and is in flower, roots have been developed well.
The plant shows both parents characters.

Cactus / miracle kabuto

I washed all flowering size miracle kabutos by soap and cut roots before repotting in this spring.
They have not started to grow yet.
Several small miracle kabutos only are in flower.

Cactus / Hanaizumi super kabuto

I have just one Hanaizumi super kabuto.
Hanaizumi means "Spring of flowers" and multiple flowers come out from one areole.
Unfortunately it was one flower only opening in this time.
