I've had this tiny cactus for a year. I propagated it. I have had no experience how to overwinter cacti, and the tiny "Athena" has suffered a lot. She has lost all her green colour in 1 month. I was anxious whether she would survive. I changed the environment, hoping my diagnosis was right. I'm excited to show her photo here on the road to recovery. There's some green at last 🌵💚🤗 #cactusclique #cactus #cacti #echinopsis #greggang #greggers #desertdweller

I learned the hard way that there's no such thing as overwintering #cacti in Queensland, Australia. My beloved #cactus #echinopsis Athena has suffered much because of my ignorance, but has pulled through and is showing more green. I was sad because of what I did to Athena. I bought this hamster to cheer me up. #cactusclique

I learned the hard way that there is no such thing in Queensland, Australia as overwintering cacti. My #cactus #echinopsis Athena is still quite yellow, it has suffered much because of my ignorance, but it has pulled through and doing better. More of the green colour is visible. I bought this little hamster to cheer me up. I'm sad that I made my belved cactus suffer. #cactusclique

Happy Easter from me and all my plants to you my friends on Greg. Have a nice relaxing time, and let all your plants thrive. 💚 This cute Easter bunny is printed on a 3D printer. I'll be away for 2 months, but I left one plant in my room. It doesn't need much water. Will it be ok? What do you think?😆 🤗💚🌵🪴🌿 #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #greggang #greggers #succulentsquad #succulentlove #peperomia #peperomiapals #echinopsis #echeveria

This #echinopsis Lime Green pup Athena is plump and strong, she is growing slowly but surely. She was very undersized when planted. She is my very first propagation project. My pride and joy. 🤗💚🌵 #cactusclique #cactus #succulentsquad #succulentlove #greggang #happyplants
