Astrophytum coahuilense 'Kikko' Tubercle grafting

[Arioandi]

Hi everybody,
Last summer I lost a nice Astrophytum coahuilense 'Kikko' from Japan. I grafted 3 tubercles on Ferocactus glaucescens. After a few months, one of the tubercles began to make offsets. Actually there are about 6-7 offsets, ready to regraft.

Hi Arioandi, I often see the fero grafts glaucescens in tubers, There is some special reason ? perhaps greater contact surface?

Regards

[Arioandi]

I don't know the reason, but it works good on Fero glaucescens.

Hi, great job, you have a good offspring!

Hi  Arioandi, well done, congrats.

[Arioandi]

Thank you all. It is a good way, to save a clone, even if the plant is rotten. Almost always you can save a part of the plant and graft it.

Congrats! It's always a satisfaction to save a rare plant!
