Spines!
Pic 1 & 2: G. ferocior (with a beautiful colour gradient)
Pic 3 & 4: G. vatteri (unguispinum)
Pic 5: G. polycephalum (Macht seinem Namen alle Ehre, because it has three heads! Not pups. Three heads. A trichot essentially. I love it.)
Pic 6 to 9: two individual Agua Dulce (Or hybrids thereof? They were sold as G. mihanovichii "Black")
Some tappery guys, staged
G. esperanzae, G. prochazkianum (now mostii afaik), G. riojense piltziorum, G. gibbosum v. nigrum, G. bayrianum, G. stellatum v. paucispinum, G. riojense v. paucispinum.
T. panarottoi, self pollinated. No other flowers were open at the time, so I experimented a little. Clearly it worked😊
They're all G. schickendantzii (the budding guy is ssp. delaetii), but they all look different.
Added a two pics of the roots on my ani in the lineup (pics 2-5), because it's so weirdly thick and stiff for an ani root, like a taproot actually.
