Hi Josef,
What is the cactus sp in the fifth pic from the top? The long and tall one.

Josef · Post by **Josef** » Tue May 05, 2009 10:39 pm

Hi Aaron
This is Echinocereus coccineus.
Regards
Josef

Great desert Josef! My coccineus looks nohting like that, it's short and fat! But, it's only been in the ground for 3 years.

Thanks for sharing.

I have never seen one like it. Should be cool to see what the flowers look like.

Josef,
Have you ever planted Xanthorrhoeas sp in your garden?

Cool cactus. I never get tierd of pics from your garden.

Josef, your desert garden is amazing. Actually, it was looking through your pics on this post that got my mind going on the subject, and now I've begun work on a desert garden of my own:) It looks like your garden is growing on a hill, is that correct? Also, what zone are you? Any recommendations on plants to try in my garden? I'm zone 6a. If I can get mine looking half as good as yours, I'll be thrilled:)

Josef · Post by **Josef** » Tue Mar 29, 2011 6:42 am

Hello

Jova - I´m zone 6b.It is very risk but i think best plants is Y.thompsoniana,elata,agave neomexicana etc.
Few pics cacti after winter

Any chance identifying this cactus particularly?

Thanks!

TimMAz6 · Post by **TimMAz6** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 9:08 am

great cactus Igor! Your unknown cactus looks like an Escobaria missouriensis form.

igor.glukhovtsev · Post by **igor.glukhovtsev** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 10:35 am

Thanks, Tim! It's berries are pretty sweet!

Josef · Post by **Josef** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 11:14 am
