Tour of 2023 CACTUS & SUCCULENT SALE by Schweinfurt Branch, German Cactus Society

What's better than visiting an indoor cactus and succulent plant sale & show on a rainy day in Spring? We will see on offer the most fabulous and awesome plants, some very, very old, and mostly with very attractive prices - something for every taste, including hundreds of species of cacti from the genera Ariocarpus, Mammillaria, Echinocereus, Parodia, Turbinicarpus, Gymnocalycium, Trichocereus, Echinopsis, etc. and also many other wonderful and rare succulent plants such as Agave, Aloe, Euphorbia, Lithops, etc.
Come join me for a relaxed tour to see what's on offer at this amazing plant selling event that is hosted by the Schweinfurt local branch of the Deutsche Kakteen Gesellschaft e.V. (DKG), the German Cactus (& other Succulents) Society - one of many local DKG branches that host events such as these for the public and especially for all fans & enthusiasts of cacti and other succulent plants. Many of the exhibitors are private collectors who are making some space in their own collections and parting from their seedlings as well as often also some of their prized mature mother plants!
In this PART 1 of the video, we tour the plant sale - and in the following, Part 2, we will take a look at the plant haul that I managed to secure at the sale for my own cactus & succulent greenhouse collection!
Come and enjoy the tour and plants!
Cheers,
Joe

Oh my golly! I wish I can stick my hand into my screen and grab those cactus that I want. 😮 Those are really reasonable prices, too. I enjoyed this video, Joe. Looking forward to seeing what you got. 😊

[@cactusjoe]

Hahaha, thanks Ana, yes we need some sort of teleporting device to be able to have you join and pick straight through the screen, lol! Would indeed have been great to be able to go to such an event together! I hope you will like my plant haul too, in part 2. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend, take care, best wishes!👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌱🌺🌼🌺💚😎

Thank you so much Joe, for taking all of us along with you! What an absolute feast for the eyes! 👀 I literally wanted to crawl through my computer screen and grab some to take home! This was a great tour, and a simply astonishing video, something I will surely have to watch again, as there are just so many beautiful cacti there. Now I'm going to watch your plant haul video, because I can't wait to see what you chose to bring home with you! 🌵🙏☺💚🌸🌵😊🌞🌵

Hey Clyde! Thanks very much for watching and brilliant to read your awesome comments! Indeed there were so many plants that I also would have loved to take back home, just too bad that I just don't have enough space left, haha!! Yep, that fuzzy Opuntia was so cool, and also the very old Euphorbia obesa, which someone just snatched 10 seconds before I could, lol! Lot's of cactus greetings from my little greenhouse in Bavaria to you at Morris Park in the Ozarks, happy growing!!🙏👍😊🌵🌱🌵🌼🌺🏵💚😎

Hey Cecilia! Many thanks for watching and commenting! So happy that you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for joining! Yeah, there were quite a few wonderful Echinopsis there, although it is still too early here to see their flowers! But even without those, you normally can't go wrong with Echinopsis 'blind purchases' haha! Their flowers are always stunning! Enjoy your weekend ahead, happy growing!!😊🙏👍🌵🌱🌵🌺🌼💚😎

Cor, would have taken me most of the day to just look at the Opuntias 😁 Excellent video Joe 👍🏼👍🏼🌵🌵😎😎

[@cactusjoe]

Thanks so much, Ziggy, yes indeed I was actually thinking of you a few times at the sale, when I saw all those awesome Opuntias there, haha! You would have been able to give me much more Infos about these than I personally know about plants of the genus Opuntia, as I only keep a few of these myself! I seem to always magnetically attract those nasty glochids and spines! Thanks for watching and commenting, my friend, much appreciated as always!👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌺🌱💚😎

Hahaha, brilliant that you enjoyed the cactus show and sale, thanks for joining!😉👍😊🌵 Yep I'm sure there are shows like these hosted by local branches of the US Cactus & Succulent Society too! Definitely worth checking out their online pages for more infos! Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated! Enjoy your Friday and weekend ahead!👍😂👍😊🌵🌵🌺🌼💚😎

[@DavidRodriguez-jt1ns]

I'm so glad that you invited us to join you on this tour, this was fun, so many amazing looking cacti. Here in Florida we don't have those kind of sales of cacti😢...this was a real treat for me,thanks!🌵🌵

[@cactusjoe]

Hi David, I'm really happy that you enjoyed the tour, thanks so much for joining! Perhaps the local branches of the US Cactus & Succulent Society organise something similar? Worth checking out their webpages perhaps? Thanks again my friend, take care and hope you have an awesome weekend ahead!!🙏👍😊🌵🌵🌱🌺🌼💚😎

[@ModernGrower]

Large variety of cacti and reasonable prices. That tray of strobocactus is pretty cool I didn't catch the price on those.

[@cactusjoe]

Haha, yes I thought you would like that one, I know that these special ones, like the Strombos, are right up your road, lol!! I am not sure what that whole tray would have set you back for, but individual ones, a little larger went for around € 5-8 each. Thanks for watching and commenting!🙏👍😊🌵🌵🌺💚😎

[@lindaware3082]

Some great specimens I love the twisted one so unusual x

[@cactusjoe]

Indeed the twisted ones are fantastic, so glad you like them too! Check out the upcoming Video part 2, there may be more of that one to come, hint, hint, haha! 😉👍🌵🌵😊 Thanks for watching and for your lovely comments!😊💚😎

[@billgolightly7203]

Great video, Joe. Did I see a yellow flower in your trunk or not? Thanks for your time.

[@cactusjoe]

Many thanks Bill, glad you enjoyed the video! Haha, you did!! I fell in love with that yellow-blooming Stenocactus and had to add it to my others! Thanks for watching and commenting my friend!🙏🙏👍😊🌵🌵🌺🌼💚😎

[@cookiescacti]

Oh my goodness, those are spectacular specimens for sale! I haven’t come across any sales here with such rare mature plants and the prices, wow!

[@cactusjoe]

Hi Jenny, many thanks, so happy you enjoyed the cactus tour and sale, and thanks for watching and commenting, appreciated! Yeah, the prices for some of these quite old plants were indeed fantastic...and so nice to see these old plants move from one collector to another! Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌱🌼🌺🏵💚😎

[@Nino_G]

Thank you for the tour Joe, really nice selection of plants. Those old Pelecyphora aselliformis specimens at 3:25 especially caught my eye. Do you perhaps remember what was the price range for those? Best regards, Nino

[@cactusjoe]

Hi Nino, thanks so much and really happy that you enjoyed the video tour! Yeah those Pelecyphoras were wonderful old plants, but unfortunately I don't recal their prices ...given their likely age I would expect them to have been at least €30 or higher. Best regards, have a wonderful Sunday and happy growing of course!🙏👍😊🌵🌵🌱🌼🌺🏵💚😎

[@markgibsons_SWpottery]

Hey Joe,... Where you going with that Lophophora Williamsii in your hand?... That never gets old...LOL! I always tell my self that wal mart workers are abusing the cactus and I have to save them from the abuse... those bastard almost killed this one that I saved, Its doing great now... regular aloe. I saved my poor Domino cactus from Home depot... They may have been caring for it better than me at the time, but I came a long way in 8 years... I treat my cactus better than anything else on earth, except other cactus lovers! Love that stuff!

[@cactusjoe]

Hey Mark, thanks so much for watching and for your brilliant message, much appreciated! Haha, I took that Lopho straight back to my greenhouse, LOL! Yes, I agree with you, we are very often indeed saving plants from these supermarkets and even nurseries, especially when they have no clue about how to grow different plants in different ways...so cacti will be on "equal" footing to orchids and other houseplants when it comes to their treatment, watering, etc., haha! Sounds like you are sucessfully saving some nice cacti there now, well done! Hope you have a fantastic Friday and also a great weekend ahead, take care and happy growing!

[@TerryJent]

Well that was fun. So many cacti in all of those smaller containers. You had to cover up your purchases in the trunk of your car with all of that big type across the page! I guess that means we get to see them in another video! My family has its roots in Alsace, France, but they all spoke German since it is so close to the border. They came to the US in the late 1800s. Happy growing and keep posting!

[@cactusjoe]

Hi Terry, thanks so much and so glad you enjoyed the video! Indeed, there is a Part 2 coming, haha! That's so interesting to read about your family roots! Have you ever had a chance to visit the Elsass region and also some distant relatives there potentially? It is such a wonderful region and of course also quite famous for it's fabulous white wines! Hope you are having a fantastic Friday and also an awesome weekend ahead! Take care and happy growing of course!🙏👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌼🌺💚😎

[@TerryJent]

@@cactusjoe There might be some relatives still there, but I've never visited Europe. My sister delves in genealogy, so she knows the history better. I've never seen the spelling Elsass, but you know better since you're from Germany. Do you speek German too? Would love to hear a little German in an upcoming video. My cacti are starting to bloom, so I think I'll pay them a little visit. Take care!

[@jeffhayes1223]

Excellent video Joe! I felt like I attended the show too! If I went to that show I would probably have to refinance my house haha! There were so many awesome specimens and thank you so much for the names on top of the screen. You have so much knowledge your list would definitely be different than mine. I particularly liked the Spiral Cereus at the end especially the two headed one. The show definitely had something for everyone. Thank you so much for taking us along. I can't wait to see what you got. I hope you have a great day my friend! Sending you Cactus and Succulent love to Bavaria from Georgia!!

[@cactusjoe]

Wow thanks so much Jeff, for your absolutely awesome feedback and very kind words! Brilliant that you too enjoyed the sale, many thanks for coming along my friend! Yes I know what you mean, I need to really watch myself at events like these too, same risk of otherwise having to refinance my house too, lol!! These local sales by Cactus & Succulent Societies, like the large and fantastic US one, are always worth checking out for some great plants! Cactus greetings from Bavaria to Georgia, have a great day!🙏👍😊🌵🌵🌱🌺🏵💚😎

Thank you for the video, it was very interesting! 👍🏻 Already looking forward to Part 2, curious on which specimens you got your hands on 😄😉 I recognized the Stenocactus (the one with the yellow flowers) 🌼 you recently showed in a Shorts video, it is indeed gorgeous, so understandable that you couldn't take your eyes/hands off 😄 Indeed, the prices seemed pretty good, another reason to take some plants 😉 Overall, definitely an amazing place to which you went, there were so many different species and also many really old plants! 🌵 See you for Part 2, until then I wish you a great week ahead! Grüße nach Bayern! :)

[@cactusjoe]

Thanks Jacob, very happy that you found the video interesting! I can really recommend going to these ype of events from the DKG, and also the society itself and it's monthly journal may be of interest. Haha, you did indeed correctly recognize the Stenocactus that I already featured in a Shorts video recently! Enjoy your day and weekend ahead, take care and happy growing of course!👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌱🌼🌺😎

[@cairoshuffler5916]

Great video, Joe. I wonder how an Ariocarpus of that size can cost only 20 Euro (minute 4:55), where do such cacti come from? Prices are lower than currently in Berlin (Kakteentage, 18.-21.5.23).

[@cactusjoe]

Hi, thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! Because these smaller, more local plant sales events are mainly "by collectors, for collectors" you have predominantly private hobbyists who sell their seed-grown plants (...or older plants, when they need to make new space in their collections, we all know that issue I think, haha) to other collectors. So of course prices will be much lower than at the big events (like in Berlin), where also the large, commercial nurseries and internationally well-known sellers will be present and there will be fewer of these real bargains to be found. Wishing you a fun Friday, best wishes and happy growing!

[@johnspepperworld4098]

Hello Joe. I have enjoyed watching your videos very much. Can you tell me what videos of yours tells how the color of the flowers are determined? Thank you sir.

[@cactusjoe]

Hello John, thanks so much, very happy that you enjoy watching my videos, much appreciated!! I have a series of 4 videos called Kaleidoskope of Cactus Flower Colors, they were posted in January of this year and you would be able to watch on my channel. Let me know if you have and problems finding them. Have a wonderful day!!👍🙏😊🌵🌱🌵🌼🌺🏵💚😎

[@jacobsiebert2204]

Today I went to my local botanical garden respectively its cactus/succulent greenhouse. It is voluntarily cared for by our local branch of the DKG, the "Kakteenfreunde Friedrich Ritter". I talked to one of the careholders and he told me that they plan to build a new - and much more bigger - greenhouse in the next year. That is definitely necessary because it is slowly getting way too old (built in the 80's) and also too small for the big (especially columnar) cacti 😅 They also have a table at the entrance where they sell a few plants of the collection for very reasonable prices. I took a beautiful "Parodia schumanniana" with me. Do you also have a specimen of that plant? 🌵 I wish you a relaxed saturday evening and a great sunday! :)

[@cactusjoe]

Hi Jacob, your visit to the Kassel Botanical Garden sounds excellent, very informative and also quite productive, haha! Very nice that they are selling cacti there at the greenhouse, Parodia schumanniana is a wonderful plant to grow, they have beautiful yellow flowers and can grow to awesome looking and rel. large cacti! I have been growing a group of three for many years now! Thanks again for your updates which I always enjoy reading! Have a fantastic week ahead, take care and happy growing of course!👍🙏😊🌵🌵🌱🌼🌺🏵💚😎

Amazing thank you for sharing! Plants are at unthinkable prices wow. Are caudiciforms less common in your area or just this sale didn't have many?

[@cactusjoe]

Hi there! Thanks, so happy you enjoyed the video! Indeed, this particular plant sale was very thin on caudiciforms ...but indeed, they are super popular and sought after plants here too! The prices are quite low, as this was an "insider" event, from private collectors for other like-minded folks. No large, commercial sellers, otherwise prices would be much higher here too! 👍😊🙏🙏🌵🌺🏵💚😎

[@pachyplant]

@@cactusjoe Right i see thanks for the insight! It always pays to be active in your community and join cacti and succulent societies etc :) Feels good to be an insider, but thanks for sharing to us outsiders!

Yes, fully agree wirh you, it always pays to be a member of a cactus & succulent society and be able to join in on local activities! Thanks again and glad you found the video interesting! Happy growing!

[@zhaezz84]

Prices are insanely cheap, i atleast pay twice as much for Ariocarpus, feels sad man :x

[@cactusjoe]

Yeah, it's mainly because at these type of specialist sales, plants go from collector to collector, so (mostly) no commercial sellers. Otherwise prices are much higher indeed.
