2 hours later and i have successfully re-potted my cacti
i think they were all do for a new home. most of them were root bound . i moved all the larger ones to terracotta pots and the smaller ones to the pot the larger ones were in . i used a sand soil peat mix that has grate drainage to it so hopefully they will do fine .

vary easy to cultivate . just cut a shoot and turn it upside down in some water and it sends out roots and a new top soon to grow into a nice clump of green . or you can cut plant and place the top in the dirt and it will grow but the water works faster for me .

Looking good. Very clean and neat. I myself are into Euphorbia cactus looking plants. Not as sharp of needles. Too bad the flowers are so small, not like the cactus.

I to like the Euphorbia .I had to save this one from wal-mart today Whistling
it was in need of re-potting and having the rocks removed\replaced along with making a drain hole . They had it labeled as a coral cactus . Rolling my eyes.




i also saved a haworthia they had labeled as a aloe

while we were out I bought some gravel to top the pots with.
I think it makes the plants stand out better
