Cactus and Succulent Society of America Selected Entries

This weekend is the Cactus and Succulent Society of America's National Show.  I'll be showing and selling both plants and pots.  Below are a few of my Show Plants.

Bursera schlechtendalii in a Joe Wujcik pot

Commiphora guillauminii in one of my pots.  The pot is about 8 inches tall.

Euphorbia bongolavensis in a Ted Alford Pot  The pot is about 6 inches in diameter.

Euphorbia species Madagascar  A favorite plant, but it really needs a better pot. This pot is about 8 inches tall.

Fockea crispa in a Debbie and Charlie Ball Pot  This is a seed grown plant.  The pot is about 8 inches in diameter

Fockea edulis, in fruit, this is also seed grown  This is in a 10 inch bonsai pot.  It's as heavy as it looks.

A Gasteria armstrongii x Gasteria bicolor hybrid in a Charlie and Debbie Ball Pot

Mammillaria chioncephala, a token cactus, at least for this blog, but not for my entries as a whole

Senna Meridonalis in one of my pots.  It is just leafing out, but will stay in leaf until December.  The pot is about 8 inches across.

One Billion Year old Pots - Start to Finish

Slow, even for me.  These are all textured pots with the texture made from impressing billion year old limestone into the wet clay.  The limestone comes from weathered outcrops common in the Mohave desert.

These are all small pots, about three inches across and about 4 tall.  Actual dimensions are on the Skyview Succulents Web page.

The texture varies considerably from rock to rock.

With clear favorites being the one at right and the right pot in the top image.

8 Pots from a series of many.
