Love those bonsai trees.

Here's an astrophytum capricorne to get things started.

Been waiting for this for so long!

The plant is awesome! And is that a TB Bonsai pot you've used?

Thanks for this, Paul. Size wise I'm talking 30-40cm diameter or less. I really like the ones with tight rosettes with the wide leaves over the longer, strappy leaves.

I'm wanting to add a smaller agave to my outdoor bed and am looking for suggestions? I like the look of a. potatorum but have read conflicting reports as to its hardiness. Any tips?

This is less than a month away and I haven't seen a thread about it, so here's one.

No info of sellers yet but I'm keeping my eyes peeled.

Sounds like a great event, Stuart.

Did anyone get any photos?

What other rock types available in the UK might be worth trying? I'd really like to plant an aztekium vertically in some gypsum.

I'm using Yorkstone simply because I have an abundance of it in my garden. Rock is expensive!

Here's another staging I did today. A tiny ariocarpus retusus robustus that I bought from Tina.

Mat - yes that's the trade off I'm working through now! Until now I've put everything in BEF pots with the goal of cramming as much as I can into my 4ft x 6ft greenhouse. Now I'm thinking of having fewer plants and staging them up nicely - I just have to figure out which I can bear to part with! :lo...
