Great idea for a thread! I love walking around nurseries looking at plants.
I like your cacti, Vee. We've had them in the past but never had flowers like that. I have considering making up one of those terrariums with succulents as a present for my mum in the past. She has a few. I saw some nice bottle ones a few months back before the lockdown. One was sideways on a wooden stand and it looked like a ship in a bottle style with sections cut out along the top.
For her birthday I got her a dwarf cherry, Kojo-no-mai. So beautiful and unlike most cherry trees it grows outwards as well as upwards. I will have to post a pic.

Well, remember, I can grow those cacti because the winters are so warm down here. We only get snow and frost up in the mountains.
Do you all bring your succulents and tropical plants indoors for the winters?
yes, post pics!

We keep our succulents inside. They do get sold in outdoor sections at garden centres but our frosts would kill them.
We've got a few in a small glass jar I got as a gift for my mum plus an arrangement put together from a few smaller ones we picked up in reduced to clear sales which grew much bigger. We also have two Christmas cactus which produce lovely long flowers but some years they struggle when it's a mild winter and don't quite produce them. They sprout leaves through the rest of the year though.

If you are one of the lucky souls allowed to enter NZ at this time please remember two things:
1. We did the hard months in lockdown abiding by rules for you to get here.
2. No one gives a shit if you prefer white towels or hotels with sea views.
You're in quarantine for fourteen days ...obey the rules.
Don't you mean get with the high times?
You can buy cacti to but you're still growing it.
I got you pegged for a purist.
Actually a buddy of mine went out to California and is growing it by the acre he's making a fortune.
