I had told myself no more bonsai or trees for a while … so cacti are ok, right? 🀭 Stopped in at the local cooperative on a walk this morning. This tray of cacti caught my eye, so I ended up buying JUST ONE … Β₯500 each, I could have easily bought the entire tray if I didn’t leave ASAP.
This shop is soooo dangerous, everything is reasonably priced and grown locally - I have to actively avoid it or take everything home.
11ft to light, indirect
3” pot with drainage

Nice! Wish I knew what those prices are in American money! Would be interesting to see the price difference
@FamedGymealily I would have to actively avoid that shop as well πŸ™„ Love your new cactus πŸ€—
@Boymom-plantmom the internet tells me it would cost us πŸ₯§ as in, $3.14 USD 😜 (What! There’s no β€œpi” emoji?!)

@FamedGymealily What gorgeous little cacti! I’m in awe that you were able to stop with one. When are you going back? πŸ˜‰
@Boymom-plantmom @DreamMachine should I mentioned I picked up a lime tree last year (with 12 limes) for roughly $8 US and you can routinely get orchids for $8-10? The selection is always changing and never really the same year by year.
@debbiedo wellllll it’s a five minute walk from my house and I can pass it daily on the way to the train. I’m nearly run out of space in my office for more cacti
@FamedGymealily ……….. 😲😲 with limes already?? Yes. DANGEROUS.

And reasonably priced orchids will be my downfall. πŸ˜…
@FamedGymealily NEARLY out of space means there’s still space I believe πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‚
@DreamMachine next they get a batch of orchids, I’ll try to remember to grab a pic or two πŸ˜‰
@debbiedo 🀫 don’t go tempting me, I need to clean that space today and reorganize everything.
@FamedGymealily ooh yes please do if you remember!! πŸ™ 🀩 Ogling over orchids much too far away from me are quite safe πŸ˜‚
