You gave me a cutting last year of one that looks a bit like a dragon's tail Mick....it's doing well, I was wondering if it will flower?

Sorry Mick, these do nothing for me, but when we were at our local G/C a few weeks ago, I did look at the ordinary cactus/cacti for sale, even looked at a book on the subject!

I am always so amazed by their shapes and markings...what completely weird things some of them are....I really MUST have a go at living stones next year. Maybe I could get smallest into cacti that way..........hehehee..... Isn't it lovely that people all over the world are soo interested too - we are all the same really aren't we?

Living stones, by and large, are easy. You just need to follow some basic rules and you can't go wrong. |

I don't remember you with living stones The witch? Remind me? They went soft then died Mick - at my last house I kept them in the conservatory. Sounds like overwatering. Did we ever discuss? Were they Lithops do you know? |

OK. If you want to try again let me know. Lithops are the easiest.
