Just thought that you would like to see this old cactus he is very old, must be about 20 years old and is about 3ft across now, flowers twice a year!
Hope that you are all well, kindest regards Peter and Mary-Anne

Here is another though alot smaller, it has a beautiful coloured flower, one of my favourites, i have also started several orchid cacti from seed this year so it should be interesting to see what we get,
regards to you all from Peter and Mary-Anne on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland

Thank you for the lovely complement, all that we do is feed it with a liquid fertilizer once every two weeks, half strength, during the growing period, and we do not have it in bright light, also do not water it to much in the winter months, we use a liquid tomato feed at half strength.
Hope that you are well and keeping warm, kindest regards Peter
