After randomly spamming a Copiapoa expert yesterday, Iām ready to get some hot hot heat on this Cinerea (right) and what I believe is Copiapoa bridgesii. There is a lot of (surprise) mixed info on Copiapoa, and the intimidation factor for me is the mention of coastal conditions (western South American coast starting around Chile) and morning fog. Have you added ārecreate a foggy morningā to your plant notes? Note that asking about fog made that expert call on another expert to answer. The bottom line was āyeah, they light it bright.ā Here we go. I also said no more plants for a while, but a local shop had an anniversary event, and Copiapoa is an exception Iāve made. They are the only place Iāve found for Copiapoa, and I was saying a silent prayer as I drove across town on lunch. The shop also has no idea how boutique these guys are, and I ended up answering the clerkās questions.
