More images in the comments, as I need to show the bedroom window :) Note also that my cactus collection has dwindled, a lot, in favor of Euphorbia. I mean, I still have like 20 Opuntia, but round ones with wool and a million bug apartment crevices. The soft succulents also get pests, but cleaning their bods is around 87% easier. ![4개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/-3Zhu00gRMyepxPu7RgGWQ.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/5FMrL0-iTdyihggeH_u6DQ.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/3aAp4sKjTkWJ9Ctr-SirnA.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 4번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/rGSS6Q6kTGKO1d9J4dMcRQ.webp?size=large) ## 19개의 댓글 ### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-01에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![4개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/uxEuIY05SrygKa0d46Mb7Q.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/xTbrVISBTAGMeYC4xq4_rw.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/-3iPl4SHSJOf6BdjJ1DLKA.webp?size=large) ![4개 중 4번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/wtK2Q_LLRnWXzy83SMUB8A.webp?size=large) ### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-01에 댓글을 남겼어요. Love your collection #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-01에 답변했습니다. Thank you. I’m starting to get more excited about it again as I’m cleaning, occasionally purging and switching out topsoil. Little stuff like this bloom keeps me going back haha. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/Wie7kr57Qg-CrBvGwzGC0w.webp?size=large) #### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-01에 답변했습니다. Oh my gosh, I've never seen a paw plant that big before, or blooming #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-01에 답변했습니다. ps Your carnivorous collection is enviable. I recently retrieved a bunch of stuff from my old shed, including some huge glass containers. This used to be filled with some misc sucs (I didn’t know about drainage back then) and a Star Aloe that took over. I have bog dreams. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/eWDFnEE1TuCrwY7T8rhFgg.webp?size=large) #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-01에 답변했습니다. I believe I smushed two (Home Depot) plants in there, but yeah. Pretty big. The tips of some leaves were getting munched on, so I banished it to a window sill for the winter. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/mvaI4v-RRAqpIQntzLcuLw.webp?size=large) #### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-01에 답변했습니다. Hahaha i actually have a few sucs in no drainage pots, i think its just finding a happy medium with watering sometimes and the right sucs or cactus. Thank you. That will be an awesome bog!!! _앱에 답글이 1개 더 있습니다._ ### Squirrelywhirl님이 2025-05-01에 댓글을 남겼어요. This is so impressive! ### Sunny님이 2025-05-01에 댓글을 남겼어요. Your family looks bigger to me. Maybe the individuals got larger. 🤣 I’m still living vicariously through your spiked plants. I gave away a rather large euphorbia what son was a toddler many many years ago. That was my last successful thorny plant. 🪴 #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-02에 답변했습니다. Hmm. I think I staged things and added some bigger pots ha. I'm really trying to get rid of the ones that are anemic due to non-reversable experiments. Ps I aw this yesterday - actually, I saw two of them. It's too big, but it would be both amazing and a decent investment, as another local shop sells them for $150. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/kkIHnZ53SxWDddrt-O7elQ.webp?size=large) #### Sunny님이 2025-05-02에 답변했습니다. I haven’t seen the variegated. It’s cool! I’ve seen the euphorbia ghost on Etsy. I’m just look and keep scrolling. They are all expensive. This one above is cheap. ### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-02에 댓글을 남겼어요. Here's one I don't mention. Those spots started red, and I thought it might be red wool (these get a crazy mullet). There spots turned solid black, so I sprayed it with copper fungicide. Next steps is probably the trash. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/e5YZzJcMQH21m2YTIS06jw.webp?size=large) #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-02에 답변했습니다.

I haven't seen that on a cactus, starting out red. It does look like fungus infection though with the yellow halos ### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-02에 댓글을 남겼어요. Is it into the very top? Maybe you can prop it and disinfect it #### Dave\_opuntiaface님이 2025-05-03에 답변했습니다. The black happened so quickly that I’ve not had many expectations. Here’s an example of the mullet lol. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gFKgBIDtQUSoNHyzAXA4pLM-wYI4yLGXFPAMGDtMt3o/8mO3xAGoROKv3U19KBpgVg.webp?size=large) #### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-03에 답변했습니다. Oohh it may be bacterial than, if it happened so quick. #### Wolfen 🐺님이 2025-05-03에 답변했습니다.
