# Was checking on all my overwintering cacti in my pop-up greenhouse…

Was checking on all my overwintering cacti in my pop-up greenhouse today and was thrilled to see my Mammillaria bombycina (?) giving me two new pups! I've had this guy for 8 maybe 9 years now. Got him when he was just one small cactus about 3 inches big. Looks like I should repot him and do a little substrate refresh.
