Re: Repotting time again
Nice photos Mike, small Opuntia never look their best at this time of year, but in just a few weeks time they will be looking good and sending out new shoots all over.

Re: Repotting time again
It’s Cumulopuntia pentlandii. I think it came from Michael Kießling and has the reference KD 1367. Lemon yellow flowers.

Thanks for info Mike. I plan to buy some chollas from Michael this year so I'll add this one to my order as well...

Re: Repotting time again
Sadly Michael no longer posts to the UK so I have lost the best source for small Opuntias.

Re: Repotting time again
Yeah, he told me so last year. BUT... (this time it's good 'but', at least for me... )
Fortunately Germany is Croatian Promised Land.. something like that, there are so many Croats working there that I don't expect any problems finding one or few fellow ex-countrymen to receive Michael's plants and bring them to me. In case you are interested in some of his plants and willing to pay a bit higher shipping, feel free to PM so we arrange the details. I'll be glad to help.
Of course, my offer stands for any other forum member as well.
