Cacti and Things

Cacti, succulents and other plants...and lots of orchids

[cactiandthings]

Achimenantha Dale’s Clownfish. Unlike some of the similar Achimenantha hybrids, this takes after its Smithiantha parent.

[cactiandthings]

Additional #Gesneriaceae. Codonanthe digna. Streptocarpus. One cranky, the other not.

[cactiandthings]

Miscellaneous Gesneriads. Episcia. Michaelmoelleria. Saintpaulia. Streptocarpus. Sinningia. Primulina.

[cactiandthings]

The astonishing flowers of #Habenaria carnea. Now to get some hybrids.

[cactiandthings]

Mostly white #orchids. #Paphiopedilum Snow Squall, #Dendrobium parishii semi alba

[cactiandthings]

Nematanthus albus. Large, oddly scented flowers.

[cactiandthings]

Adenium Fiery Star. Just stating to open.

[cactiandthings]

Paphiopedilum Faire-Maud. Not a perfect flower but quite elegant.

[cactiandthings]

Adenium, unknown variety. Bought as a pale pink with picotee - it’s clearly not that variety. Nonetheless, elegant and floriferous (see all the buds?).

[himekokosu]

Nomocharis forrestii

[cactiandthings]

One more.

[himekokosu]

Nomocharis forrestii

[cactiandthings]

Supposedly very difficult to grow outside of their comfort zone. Spotted and fringed almost lilies.

[cactiandthings]

Begonia Steve’s Leaves Texas Shield

Note the texture. Supposedly a bit cranky.

[cactiandthings]

Begonia Steve’s Moonwalk

[cactiandthings]

The exceedingly alien flower of Ceropegia woodii

[ghostlyfoliage]

My lace flower (Alsobia dianthiflora) decided to bloom and I didn't even notice. 😅

And as contrast, the tiny flower of Angraecum distichum. Scented like paper white narcissus, very strong. Bit of a cranky plant, let’s see if it survives.

[cactiandthings]

Angraecum Lai’s Star. This is the second time this plant has flowered in my collection. Sweet, spicy, vaguely hyacinth soapy fragrance. A huge flower as well.
