    I used to trade with Jurgen back around 2010 using his Excel sheet catalog. He was so kind and wise and was the guy who in an indirect way exposed me to cacti that weren't commonly found in big box stores. Even when I stopped collecting for some time, I would periodically check on him to make sure he was still with us. I was really sad to learn of his passing but its cool that this greenhouse was still around.

    I couldn't help but notice how Hunter (or anyone else for that matter) didn't mention who is taking care of this immense collection these days. Usually with these greenhouse tours, there's a segment where the owner etc will talk a bit, but not this time. Can you shed some light on that?

    as someone who has been collecting for a few decades, i dont buy grafs because they will grow apart as they mature.

    Hi!
    I've been collecting cactus for several years and have what I feel to be a diverse & quality collection. I'm missing some of the more sought after/rare species. I was wondering if somehow, you knew how to get some Copiapoa cinerea seeds. I cannot afford to buy a live Copiapoa cinerea plant because they are out of my price range, but I've always admired them. I feel it would be more economical for me to buy Copiapoa cinerea seed rather than a live plant. Please let me know if you can help me.
    Sincerely,
    Scott from Oklahoma

    Mouse trap among Geihintonia is very actual. A mouse ate one of my 2 geohintomias last week. 🙁 I used a trap effectively, but it's impossible to get cactus back.

    I live less than 10 minutes from Jurgen's home and would make it a point to spend a lot of $ on the priceless plants he made available. My most precious acquisition from him was a Pelecyphora strobiliformis, still planted in his rock hard planting mix and flowering every year. I sure miss my visits with him, but it's good to see that his fabulous collection still lives on.

    Hello! You make really good videos, even if I always complain about it. that's because i'm a die-hard romantic and have an aversion to every new trent. Please excuse me. one can feel how much you love these plants. greetings from Germany.

    Is that a euphorbia at 6 minutes 20 seconds?
    Fantastic tour, surprised to see a flat of Golden barrel Cactus at the beginning, the ubiquitous painful resident of too many collections

    I love ur Pro tip, Hunter!!! I have only been collecting for a year,,, would love to learn more about pollinating my own cactus as I have A lot of them already in my collection but no 2 of any 1 kind!! Then I read that cactus can "self-pollinate" and I think that makes me love them even MORE now?!?!! How can it be?? #slighly confused
    Btw, I forget what video it was u posted just recently, but FYI Savage said "Alot" 68 times 🙄 smh
    Love ur vids baby!!!!! Keep it up!!!!!! 😊

      @@cellokenno if you notice at the beginning of the video they edit out so to speak where this is located. This was essentially a private tour that they could video but the where, why, when so to speak shall remain unknown…. Beautiful collection and glad I could see what is still around.

    @cactus Quest The rusty red spots on the Ortegocactus are not a disease, its their natural look, but these colours only occur around the town of San Pedro Martir Quiechapa.

    Question: I have and am familiar with San Pedro cactus with a 4" cross section, the question is are there a larger "version" with a cross section more like 5 or 6 inches which I have seen in Malibu and elsewhere or is that due to cultivation rather than type?
