Be good when it's done, moved some of the cacti into the tunnel for now but still got loads to move out of the house, including about a thousand seedlings

Mostly Parodias and Mammillarias, but with a few others like Astrophytums, Epitheliantha, Echinocactus and a few Copiapoas

Sorry, been absent for a while

Been a year now so here's a bit of a catch up video...

In the process of sorting out the cacti after the winter. Had a few losses with the prolonged frost but most plants were ok

First day of the cactus selling season, got new "go faster" wheels on the cart to comply with ultra low emission zones

Did you see 'Gardener's World' the other night? Heavy metal drummer who had been given a cactus by his goth wife and become an addict, took over her greenhouse and built another one.
