Succulent flowers make for a beautiful floral arrangement 💐

Side note: This euphorbia was one of our firsts, before we knew much about them. When they stretch like this, it is called etiolation, and it means that they are not getting enough light. So if you notice your cacti stretching out, move it to a sunnier spot ☺️

Peruvian Apple Fruit 🍎

Similar looking to dragonfruit. Its magenta-red skin will split open when ripe to reveal a white fleshy interior speckled with tiny black seeds like those of a kiwi. The fruits’ texture has been likened to shaved ice, crunchy and juicy, with a subtle tartness and a floral sweetness similar to sugarcane.

Has anyone else noticed the decrease in bees this year? 🐝
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Unfortunately, since the Varroa mite was detected in beehives in Newcastle earlier this year, millions of bees have had to be euthanised to help stop the spread of this parasite and save the bee population.

We usually have bees on every flower this time of year, but this year we have only seen the rare one here and there 🥺

Bees help pollinate our flowers, which create the fruit and seed pods that we find on our cacti. I expect we may have a lot less this year.

WE NEED YOUR HELP

We are a finalist for "People's Choice Award" in the Newcastle Garden Awards again this year.

You guys helped us win last year and we have finished off a lot more since then. We would love to win two years in a row.

There are 5 finalists this year and the winner will be based on who gets the most COMMENTS on their finalist post in Newcastle Garden Awards Instagram and page, prior to 5pm Wednesday 30 November.

We would really appreciate your support and would love to see a cacti garden win!

If you could click on Newcastle Garden Awards post below and COMMENT on the post, it may help us win.

*Make sure you are commenting on their page and not just my share of this post. Click the first photo and it takes you to the right place. Then comment on the first spot up the top where it says “Finalist! People’s Choice Award. Belmont North” (The actual post, not the photo)😉

A record number of Astro flowers this spring 🌼
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
We had a total of 9 flowers open at the one time on this Astrophytum Ornatum. These cacti are slow-growing. They need to be at least 15 cm tall to bloom . This might take 7 to 12 (or more) years depending on growth conditions.
