Cacti and Sukkulent in Köln, every day new flowers in the greenhouse Part 135

Good morning dear cacti friends,

we remain a little in Arizona. In the downtown Tucson.
There is the cactus nursery "Plants for the Southwest".
Jean Joseph and his wife Jane operate the nursery since the mid-1980's.
Living Stones Nursery is also included.
My friend James introduced me to Jean.
Reaction of Jean: K.W. look at everything, all doors are open for you.
Apart from the swimming pool!
So are the friends of James, I was everywhere at home immediately.

So we take a little tour of the nursery. There are succulents from all over the world.
The sales plants are mainly plants grown from seed. Few plants are purchased.
Worth seeing are the Lithops. The foundation consisted of Ed. Storms Lithops collection.
This collection was acquired in 1987 by Jean.

Let's go!

STOP! First breakfast. . .

Good morning dear cacti friends,

today a few more photos from April 2015 - Arid Lands Greenhouses, Tucson Az..
James and Don have brought me there, only we will see - buy nothing. . .
I will show later on the trunk of Don's car. . .
Personally, I could not take anything anyway; I remained but photographing!

In the nursery of Bob, Tony and Susan are found significantly more "other succulents" than cacti.


But see for yourself. . .
