New cacti plants from nursery, help ID these :)
    #18887321 - 09/24/13 11:27 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Hello.

I visited one nursery yesterday, buy'd some cacti plants. I assume they are mammillaria, opuntia and organ pipe cactus. Let the pictures talk.

I assume this somekind of opuntia cactus? but what? (spines will attach to skin very hard and need to use tape to skin to get rid of the spines. Spines will come off very easy like opuntias usually. Love this appearance..


Is this Mammillaria Lloydii? (there is small spines, only one aerole have three longer radial spines.


There are identical except spine color is different. Mammillaria sp? (another has dead dry flowers from previous season) ..there are quite small but cannot ID the exact species.


This I identified to Organ pipe cactus, doesn't fine any other close to this.


I would appreciate your comments so I can start labeling them. Also these two clustering cactus in the same pot I am almost sure they are same species but different spine color variation what is typical to mammillaria species as usual to see same species but different variants with spinal coloration. Also form and growth style are identical, only spine coloration is different. Another has white(with very small amount of red color) and another has reddish-orange spines. Also spine amount and formation are similar.

Please feel free to comment. :dancer:

The first one is Cumulopuntia dactylifera thanks Big L!

Mammillaria lloydii seems a good fit.

Mammillaria elongata for #3?

The last one is Stenocactus thurberi :thumbup:

Thanks!

I actually found to this first cactus and pics names below:

Mammillaria Polythele
Mammillaria sempervivi (spines doesn't seem to match)
Mammillaria scrippsiana (possible not)

..or these are synonyms for same species or something:tongue2:

This appearance mammillaria species some of them seems to have very variable.. But one aerole on my plant with 3 nice radial spines turning inwards but I don't know does there has been more of these spines or not.. Small pines coming from aerole, all aerole seems to be radial curved spines as amount of 1-3 spines coming.

M. Lloydii can be possible close ID as I find and know it too but M. Polythele is highly variable so I will have to wait till it flowers.. They do flower different time tho. Flowers tell me more then..

But after all, there is not much matter of what species it is as long as I know how to care it and give good home for this cactus. I need moar of these mammillarias to get them flower same time and produce seeds and nothing beats growing cactus from own collected seeds! It's best feeling to get it succees! :dancer:

M. Elongata I read also it's very variable with spine coloration so I was actually right they are same species but different spinal coloration. White spine one has actually flowered last season, that another doesn't seems to have dead flowers on it. So it's possible if they flower same time I can produce seeds on my own? ...prrr this species is moar rot prone than another mammillarias as well as I found information out of it.

Ty for reply mostly! :cookiemonster:
