These will be the last plants we list for a few weeks; we’ve a busy time coming up with shows, judging etc as well as repotting most of the collection. We look forward to meeting quite a few of our eBay customers at cactus events over the summer and will be back with more new plants on Thursday 13th June.
Aeonium 'Fiesta' is the
latest Aeonium hybrid from the California, a cross made by a lady who is
producing some remarkable plants. It is
an outstanding new hybrid and is claimed to have four colours. We only found this plant in 2019 and the
colours are rapidly improving this year, It will take some time to see the full
range of colour during the year. It is
easy to grow in good light, direct sun is best, and as it grows, the colours
will be stronger than on the plant in the photo.
Our original plant came direct
from the grower in California, probably the first ones in Europe.
It measures 5.5cms across
and is the plant in the photo. the colour and variegation will vary during the
year..
The plant in the last
photo is shown for reference only. The plant
on offer is the smaller rooted offset shown in the first photo, the same clone
as the larger one.
We've been growing cacti and succulents since 1975
and regularly give talks at BCSS branch meetings and judge cactus shows during
the summer. If you're not a member of the British Cactus & Succulent
Society, have a look at their website,
most branches have regular monthly meetings and there's always a warm welcome
for prospective new members.
