Succulents are so diverse!

What's the fluffy one in the back?

Does Gentoo have something special that other distros do not?

Isn't there a Gentoo installer like with Arch?

Nope. That's the "something special". You do it manually with the help of a very well written handbook and learn a great deal about how an os works. IMO a great experience.

I love this wild mess with these gorgeous flowers and buds in between

Maybe you could put another stick on top

A really beautiful Cuprea!

Some time ago I bought a very small Cuprea myself and almost lost it. I found it difficult to keep the soil continuously not too moist, but not too dry either. When there was no leaf left, I repotted it in a Lechuza planter (a combination of baked clay granules, water reservoir and self-watering wick) and it recovered. I guess that keeps the right balance and avoids root rot.

Glad you like it and TIL all the English names for the parts of a flower 😁

Of course it only lasted 2 days but it was worth the wait

Edit: grammar

I believe it's the first time I see a crested cactus with so much hair. It looks stunning! (Actually it looks like it could jump down and run away lol)

God help us when those two clash

Goals (for the distant future ...or maybe I delegate this task to another me in the multiverse, we'll see)

I have no clue, but I imagine this hard grown clump with multiple stems is several decades old.

Thank you for clearing this up. I thought the ritteri is the one with lots of wrinkles. I loved the valdezii for its beauty and the ritteri for its ugliness lol. But perhaps this characteristic is very variable within the species.

both known species of Aztekium

there is also A. ritteri or is there a new name for it? (Llifle, Wikipedia)

Exactly 😮 just impressive

Good boy! (The dog too!)

Wow it looks like porcelain, haven't seen that before

Thanks for the advice

und viel Erfolg!

Wow!

At first glance I thought you grafted them on San Pedro cacti and i was wondering what you did with the cuttings 🍵😵‍💫🌈 lol

Maybe you're lucky and the top right rootstock grows a new branch – but that's a long time for those cute little cacti to corrupt your evil soul with beauty and love ❤️‍🩹 So be careful!

First it looked a bit etiolated but now it's full of leaves 👏

🥰👏
Someday I'll try that too!

You should really sink about your moral compass

:smile

such a spoiled brat

Very cute and beautiful colors

I love those flowers that imitate carrion to attract flies. Really interesting addition to this community!

I toggle between 3 different apps on Android and it seems that it took awhile until I received your comment. I guess everything is fresh here -- and it's all part of the fun!

I see 4 photos (Liftoff app) and what a stunning progression! 👏

Oh thank you, i thought it's a bunny. But you are right!

Woah! Reminds me of "The Living Desert"

Yes, Aztekium cacti grow very slowly (around 1mm in diameter per year), so people graft them to accelerate the growth. This one is 17mm big and I got it grafted already, never tried it myself.

Thank YOU for the community! I hope it will grow too! btw I love the avatar and the banner

😂

Never saw a hampter on reddit. It's cute!

I can't stop reading your comment with your username in mind lol
