More Astrophytums (pollen yay!!!)
    #8837111 - 08/27/08 05:05 PM (15 years, 6 months ago)

k well i bought some astrophytums, a few every few months for the past while, in hope that a few would bloom and i could breed them.
sadly enough they bloom at different times from each other, so.... i made due and collected some pollen for when the next one blooms.

sorry the pics are a little bright, i dont know whats up with my camera these days




and alot of my cacti are flowering, check out this purple green and red colored flower stuff

is that red fruit edible? is there seeds inside?

and to top it off heres a little over-exposed night-time fun with glowsticks


cacti is just great :grin:

no idea about its edibility, but if it is producing fruit then there should be seeds.

i dont know, my camera is buggy lately, hard to take good pics anymore
i might be in store for a new one, ive had this one for like 6 or 7 years
time to upgrade from the 4MP!

i think that last cactus self pollinated then, thats the only one i have like that, that actually flowered.

and scruff, astrophytums are THE SHIT!
absolutely love them, ariocarpus and astrophytums are some of my favorites, they just feel so ancient :smile:
unfortunately all my ariocarpus were destroyed by my womans crazy ass father.

anyway as soon as the next ones bloom im going to try and make seeds with them.
i already tried to self pollinate that astro, so we will see what happends, i dont even know if u can self pollinate an astro.
