Grafting Update


Notocactus Magnificus Pups Grafted onto Opuntia (Prickly Pear) Root Stock. Grafted: 06/06/13. To give an idea of scale, the pups were less than the width of the opuntia rootstock when they were grafted. The root stock has also enlarged during this time and is an advantage of using opuntia. It has been said that although Opuntia isn't as fast as T.Pachanoi, it is known to create fine specimens which generally keep their shape, more likely to create pups and flower at an earlier age.
