  • Our focus for this video will be gymnocalycium cactus and their flowers. I will be showing some of my gymnocalycium that are in flower, as well as discuss some facts about them. At the end, there is a bonus clip of a couple of other cactus of mine were in flower on the same day. Special thanks to Daz of Cactimania (in UA-cam) for letting me use some of his pictures.

    Fantastic video Ana, beautiful blooms. The Echinocereus at the end was absolutely stunning. With the Gymno hybrid I do have to mention that full credit goes to Conrad Barrowclough of The Cactus Shed for actually creating it, that’s where I got mine from. I do have another one on order, variegated 😁 Thank you for sharing with us as always Ana, from Edith & myself, be safe and well and have a wonderful Sunday 😊🌵☀️🌸🌼🌺🏜☕️

      Gymnos are amazing cacti. One of my most faves. 🥰 Love their form and their blooms. They are quite easy to hybridize too. Only downside to that is that it’s hard to ID them when they are hybrids. 😬 Love the bonus clip too. The flowers on that Hedgehog cactus are to die for. 😍 Enjoyed the video, sis. Ingat lagi 😍❤️🙏🌺🌸🥰

      Thanks Daz for letting me use your photos. It was a last minute decision to include it but I think it was worth mentioning. I tried cross pollinating mine, too so I can get the same hybrid. But then, with the bees flying freely on all those flowers, I would most likely get a “halo-halo” hybrid instead. 😂🤣 Edith... translate! 😉

    • @Cactimania
      @Cactimania 4 роки тому

      You’re welcome, Ana 😊 Really hope you manage to create this hybrid as well, look forward to seeing the results. Yes Edith is going to have to translate that for me haha 😂🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜☕️

    Very beautiful flowers!! When I was young back in the 1970s I used to see this echinocereus growing in the Santa Rita mountains south of Tucson. It would grow in grassy glades in the lower elevations. I've always loved this cactus all though it seems to be a challenge here in the greenhouse in the Ozarks. From Morris park in the Ozarks have a blooming great day!!!! Peace,Love,Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌺🌴🌻🌿

    Great vídeo Ana, I loved to know how to identify a Gymnocalycium. I have a lot of succulents and no problem to identify them except for desert cacti. For years I avoided them because of the spines but now I am buying some and I feel a bit uneasy and ignorant about them. Thank you.
    Oh I loved the flowers of the Echinocereus at the end. Absolutely gorgeous ❤️

    • @CactusCaffeine
      @CactusCaffeine  4 роки тому

    Fantastic video Ana, beautiful blooms. The Echinocereus at the end was absolutely stunning. I have a moon cactus that had flower buds, not bloomed yet but it fell down and broke its buds. I have not seen any budding or flowering since, so i'm a little worried. Will it flower again?

  • @solarwinds-
    @solarwinds- 2 роки тому +1

    Anna, I wonder if the reason why your Opuntia changed colors is because of the medium youre growing it in. You said when you bought it, it was one color but then later, when it was planted in the ground it was the lovely peach color you showed in your vid. I had some Irises that did that. When i bought them they were a golden brown. I thought, what an unusual color. But when the bulbs bloomed in my garden they were purple. Maybe that's why it changed?

    • @CactusCaffeine
      @CactusCaffeine  2 роки тому +1

      Yes, soil composition and even fertilizer can change their color. But some cacti flowers change color overnight. Those are something that is unique to the particular cactus, such as Opuntia Pina Colada. 😉

      Some cactus needs to be pollinated with another cactus. But some can be just by itself. If the pollination is successful, it will develop a fruit/seed pod. 😊 Good luck.

      You can tell the difference when they flower. Notocactus will have hairs covering the flower buds while gymnocalycium have “naked” or smooth buds. 🙂

      Judy Patootie they need more heat than sun. My gymnos don’t fully open until around 3pm when it is hottest, even though they are under shade. But then again, sun will bring the heat. In my case, heat is everywhere. 😄
