      @desertplantsofavalon  День тому

      haha Bill the Cylindropuntias really are the worst to handle when repotting, the polytunnel is still holding up for now with the bubblewrap thank goodness, we have had quite a lot of cold nights and storms but I am keeping my fingers crossed it gets through this winter, thanks so much Bill for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Friday today XXXX

    That is a very interesting video, Lyn. I really enjoyed watching this. 👍🏼😊 I was wondering, or maybe I missed it, how would you classify the Mamm. plumosa spines? That’s my favorite type of spines on a cactus.

    • @desertplantsofavalon
      @desertplantsofavalon  День тому

      So happy you loved the 'spiny' video Ana :-D and the mammillaria plumosa spines are incredible with their feather like arrangements, I should have included that one haha, I would think they would be classed as wavy spines but they are more unique as their individual spines really are like tiny feathers, thanks so much Ana for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER to Las Vegas for a fantastic Friday today XXXX

    Very well done discussion about varieties of cactus spinage. I also enjoy the Ferocactus and Gymnocalcyium groups for their incredible spines. I just got a Ferocactus emoryi and a couple of Ferocactus cylindraceus for my birthday. They are typically nasty spinage, but both different from each other within the same Genus. Latispinus species is my favorite. Big, red and spikey. You have many beautiful specimens of both Genus. Beware of the Glochids!!! They are the worst type to handle of all the types of spines on any cactus. Thanks for sharing your amazing collection.

    • @desertplantsofavalon
      @desertplantsofavalon  День тому

      HAPPY BIRTHDAY Patrick :-D I hope you had a wonderful day, thats fantastic you have got a Fero emoyi and Fero cylindraceus and the perfect birthday pressies to have, so happy you love the Ferocactus and Gymnocalycium groups of cacti for these incredible spines, these spiny beauties really are the most incredible with their stunning spines, argh yes haha Glochids really are the worst of the worst to handle haha, thanks so much Patrick for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Las Angeles for a fantastic Friday today XXXX

So many different types!!! Thanks for sharing these with us Lyn!!! Very interesting!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, to across the emerald isle, have a wonderful day!!!

I enjoyed watching☺️👏🌟Yes, the glochids are my worst to get pricked, and actually yesterday while sweeping around my opuntia robusta seedlings I got a bunch in my finger😳The seedlings are becoming rather large 20cm tall and beginning to get the typical pads. I have about 10 of them.

    Danke für dein neues Video! Ich habe gelernt das Kakteen Dornen haben und keine Stacheln, Botanisch betrachtet.🤔
    Kakteen haben Dornen und keine Stacheln!
    Der Unterschied zwischen Dornen und Stacheln ist, dass Stacheln eine Sonderform der Epidermis (äußersten Zellenschicht) ist. Dornen dagegen haben ihre „wurzeln“ in tieferen Schichten und sind umgewandelte Blätter. Im deutschen werden die beiden Begriffe oft verwechselt, so haben Rosen Stacheln und Kakteen Dornen und nicht andersherum.

    Hello lyn , I'm living in southern part of India , here we have no winter just cool season , which can go down upto 65F and mixed mostly sunny and partially cloudy weather , I have my cactus at southern facing terrace , please help me with how to overwinter my cactus in a humid place like this , and lastly I was moving my cactus daily morning to terrace and to shelf when it's raining , does moving then daily makes them not grow ?
    Thank you for your wonderful time lyn 💝 lots of love to you and your cactus sweets 🌵❤️

    • @desertplantsofavalon
      @desertplantsofavalon  18 годин тому

      Hi Aravind :-D awwww you are so lucky living in India with the wonderful warmer temperatures, the good news is moving them daily will not harm them and its absolutely fine to move them from indoors to outdoors daily especially to prevent them from getting rain, and a southern facing terrace is a perfect position, because cacti respond to the drop in daylight levels they will still overwinter even if the temperatures are warm and humid, although they may not go totally dormant in warmer temperatures they still dramatically slow down their growth due to the lower daylight, its best to keep them as dry as possible and they will still overwinter well, I have quite a few cacti indoors in my kitchen that is warm and humid and they still overwinter well as long as I don't water them over winter, I hope this helps and thanks so much Aravind for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Southern India for a wonderful weekend XXXX
