Great video, very informative ❣️ Great book too. Love a good plant challenge as far as growing, but I’ve never grafted anything like you. Your collection is over the top. I need to eliminate my family to take over house for more plants,,lol

I love these plants. I recently acquired two of my most sought-after S. Russelliana variants, "Small Ehler's Clone" which has extremely tiny clades, smaller than this video, and "Ashfield" which also has very small clades. I have them both grafted and in a specialized grow tent because they are quite sensitive. I would love to see an update video on these guys!

Yes, I find them to be super sensitive too! 💚🌱

Is there a purple true xmas cactus? I've seen a few pics on rare occasion but just wanna confirm/find an ID if it is. A few images looked like dark purple, wish I had saved them. I have the magenta and red tipped one and just curious if there's any others.

🤣 we do! Hi Nikolay and welcome. You have me curious, which plant is it?
@@nikolaybondarev7407 my nemesis 🤣 I have a few videos on that plant. It is the most difficult plant I’ve ever tried to grow but I think I have it figured out now with the hydroton or geolite wicking system. Try setting up an alert on eBay as it comes up on there from time to time as it is one of the easier species to find, sometimes you can find it at an extremely fair price too.

Where can I find opuntiodes? I can’t seem to find them online. Also I’m pretty sure the Easter cactus has been moved into Schlumbergera
@EpiphyticCacti2 жыл бұрын
Hi Daniel, there is a seller on eBay in the states that sells during the warmer seasons. You can also join some Schlumbergera buy trade sell groups on Facebook and ask if anyone has some cuttings available. 💚🌱

Looks like the substrate for each species is different
@EpiphyticCacti3 жыл бұрын
Hi Horton, the substrates aren’t intentionally different. I sometimes change out one media for another over time so it just looks that way 💚🌱!

"red mottling appears" DO any of your videos have examples? My 6 month old growth has suddenly shown some red edges and streaking. My search on the internets hasn't pulled up anything similar yet. (KZbin suggested I watch this one again. So why not!) ♥
@EpiphyticCacti3 жыл бұрын
What plant is it that you have red edges and streaking on?
@Laurie_in_Maine3 жыл бұрын
Sold to me as 2 starter cuttings of Ric Rac Cactus with red flower. All the keywords fishbone, zigzag included (so who knows :)) I later asked which scientific name it went by/ replied Selenicereus anthonyanus. I bought from CT seller thinking conditions would be more similar to ME than CA.
