TOTAL NEON! 😊

This hybrid with Akersia roseiflora is called MYSTERIUM and is similar to OTTO SCHULTZ. This was the first time the plant flowered for me and I was not really impressed. Maybe the next flower flush will look more impressive since it was badly dehydrated.

Here's one of the last season's highlights!Hildewintera hybrid HUMKES RO-RO with lots of flowers opening simultaneously. One of my favorite Hildewintera hybrids with a very unique type of flower!

Here’s my long form video of the Echinopsis hybrid STERNSCHNUPPE GEZACKT. It's a German hybrid and I really like the very ragged flowers on an Echinopsis.

Here's one of my favorite hybrids....Akersia x Echinopsis hybrid MAMACITA by Kakteen Vers. Total masterpiece!

I also recorded a flower video!

Here's an incredible hybrid by Uwe Kahle from the cross (Super Gelb x (Martha x Herz Dame)) x Dagati.

The flowers almost look like Feathers, and it's a very fertile plant when used as a father in hybrid crosses! Got quite a few crosses with it in the shop too.

Also recorded a flower video!

With both joy and sadness, I report that my stock of my first book TRICHOCEREUS VOLUME 1 is about to run out soon! It's good that I'll get my living room back, but this book will always have a special place in my heart! 😘

I also recorded a video from my living room, which had to be turned into a book depository until now. Lol.

Here's the link to the shop and books: https://trichocereus.net/product-category/trichocereus-book-trichocereus-buch-cactus-books/

Here's one of the very best Echinopsis (Formerly Pseudolobivia) hybrids I have seen so far! 18a/2000 by Andreas Wessner. Total masterpiece that also produces some great quality offspring too!

Here's an unboxing video I filmed in summer and it is one of very few plants I bought recently. I just love growing from seeds, and after getting a bunch of pest infested plants from plant sales I decided I'll only buy live plants when it's something really rare.

In this case it's Trichocereus hybrid HUBERT GANN, from a cross between Trichocereus vasquezii x Pseudolobivia hybrid TANTALOS.

Here´s a cool cross between multihybrid CLAW and an Uwe Kahle hybrid from the cross (Gröner Orange x Legon) x Makola. The mother has incredibly intense red flowers and usually produces offspring that flower VERY early on and the father has flowers that are WAY over 20 cm in diameter. Very good combination that will hopefully increase the flower size in the next generation.

Here's a cool plant that I mostly bought for my upcoming Soehrensia book. Soehrensia formosa v. hyalacantha aka Echinopsis hyalacantha. This species has been pushed around a lot in the past, but in my opinion, it very clearly belongs to Soehrensia formosa. Very rare plant!

Here´s a nice cross between a gorgeous hybrid with whitish flowers and a purple eye/throat at the bottom, which is rather rare! The father is the legendarily ruffled Gräsers Erfolg SB x Cantora Gelb. The flowers are extremely beautiful and much better than the flowers of the older Gräser hybrids like GRÄSERS SCHÖNSTE. Top notch cross!

When these plants here flowered in summer I was chased and harassed by a Hornet, which is why I forgot to bring them inside over night!!!

But the ruffled flowers are incredible! 😍

Hey guys, the 2023 season was so good that I can finally offer a very limited number of bigger sees packs again! All packs include PNO crosses from the 2023 season with a few unreleased ones from the 2022 season sprinkled across.

I only make crosses that I would personally sow out and all the crosses in there are great in their own way! So check them out! So far I only have 30 and 60 crosses packs available, but I might add more in the future. Link in comments! 👍

Here's a fantastic Wötora hybrid (from the classic cross Wörlitz x Cantora Gelb) that was named SPIRIT OF FULDA in connection with the annual meet up of the German AG Echinopsis workgroup. Very beautiful flowers that are similar to classics like PINK STRIPES or LISKES FEUERZAUBER.

Here's a masterpiece hybrid by Reinhard Liske: (Gräsers Erfolg x SB) x Cantora Gelb. Extremely beautiful flowers with very dominant ruffles. Love it!
