Thank you grindle and SueA I used up some of the many cuttings and offshoots I've got

Thank you Eileen, They'll have to come inside for the winter, they're only outside now because I made them on the patio. They could stay outside in the winter but it's too wet for them here.

I've discovered today that the Christmas Cactus in the kitchen has buds on it!

Some flowering cacti in my polytunnel :-

Weingartia neocumingii :-

Parodia ottonis :-

Gymnocalycium baldianum :-

Mammillaria bocasana :-

This last one looks like the one I grew for some years when we lived in Spain. I had several half pots of it and they spread all over the sides! It always flowered very well and then produced longish bright red seed pods! 👍
