Grafting Progress

I had to redo the red one - the graft did not take on that segment.

Hopefully this last graft holds...

Grafting

Noe and I finally got the nerve up to make some grafts of the Gymnocalycium offshoots.  After watching a few youtube videos, we felt pretty comfortable and started slicing and dicing.

Which One???!!!....

"Is my favorite the Adenium obesum or the Gymnocalycium mihanovichii???

 

"Both!!!!"

Noe Got Interested in Grafted Cacti

After researching Moon Cactus regarding why they are different colors other than green, Noe has been interested in seeing how they grow as a graft. Her interest in dragon fruit is also driving this. We stopped off at Koolau Farmers on Beretania on Saturday, and we found one she is satisfied with (had to be not yellow and not red, but some combination of the two). As usual, they had a bunch of really other cool stuff. La saw the ceramic wall hanging planters. Now I have direction on what she wants (I guess I've made too many small flower cutting vases). Here are a few pots and some of the other succulents they had. Always a good time at this nursery!
