The Johannesburg Succulent Society had its spring show about 10 days ago. It was very quiet, probably because the dates they chose coincided with the rugby world cup semi-finals although it couldn't have been predicted whether the national team would have made it that far. Sports-mad nations.... But, on to more interesting things in my book
Lopophora williamsii, aka Peyote, in flower
Another very slow-growing and collectable cactus, Ariocarpus retusus
I don't know what this is but the flowers were great
More spring flowers, Adenium arabicum
Another caudex plant, Pachypodium horombense
Euphorbia species:
Euphorbia multiceps
Euphorbia horrida
Finally, before you experience death by scrolling:
Crassula mesembryanthenopsis
Pelargonium tetragonum which looks a bit like Euphorbia, until it flowers
As usual, there was a beautiful selection of plants on show, these picture are just a few of the many that caught my eye. I showed what I brought home here
