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

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
