Cacti Blooms.. Female
Default Cacti & Succulent Blooms..

Alot of folks get cacti or succulents as a house plant or just for there odd spikey body and or cool shape and dont realize that they have some of the most beautiful blooms of all. Some blooms can be very big and some very very tiny, some smell just dreamy where you could just close your eyes and whiff the air non stop and be in heaven and some can really knock you out reffering to my stinky succulents. LOL!! These are just random bloom pics of some of my cacti and succulents.









and more in the reply,,,

All are very nice. Some I recognize. Cactus and succulents were my 1st passion before chids. I have a few and will be getting more in April. Maybe if you have a chance you could go back and label them. So where do you keep all of them... lights, greenhouse????? Maybe some pics of your growing area... we all LOVE pics!

Very nice, I like the two Stapeliads you have there too. My wife's school has a small collection of succulents and no one knows what their names are. Would be wonderful to compare.

Thanks everyone, sorry for not filling in the names will get to that shortly im pooped and need to go to bed been working with plants all day.
BikerDoc, we are "Acorn Forest Greenhouse" just a hobby GH that will be open to the public for sales come spring, we have a few GHs being built in May if not sooner but up here the snow and cold lasts well into May. Your more than welcome to come up for our grand opening when we have it.. We will be selling cacti & succulents, african violets, fancy leaf begonias and other plants of intrest. I can get anything there is out there if someone is looking for a certain cacti or succulent. I keep my plants in the winter plant room right now, durring the spring summer late fall there in a GH and on a grow rack built on the back garage wall and on the back deck, i raised hundreds of baby cacti from seed and also succulents as well. I will post pics of my down stairs plant room and come spring post pics of the build of the GH's..

The one with the pink flower ring around it is a mamm.

The very first one is Enchinopsis Tangerine

The one with the tiny purple flower is Cats Ears Tradescantia tomentosa

The last is the Pickle plant Delosperma echinatum

I will get the rest of the names in here for ya tomarrow....
