They should all flower. Show me a pic. Or use Google lens to identify it.

Re: Cactus flowers!

Here it is, only one that grows in my back window. Had it in front and it burned (dry red bits).https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9419d279a7.jpg

Re: Cactus flowers!

Hawthornia, that's it! I googled the rest of the name as that made me remember pear was in it.

It might need a bigger pot.

Re: Cactus flowers!

Its in a pitcher at the moment so lots of room. I do think I should find some rocks to put over the top though. I'm going to a garden center Saturday so will get something then.

I wanted a terrarium but a £2 pitcher from Asda was cheaper. Haha

I will go take another photo so you can see if the pitcher is big enough.

Re: Cactus flowers!

How long have you had it? I just saw that it takes 5 years to reach maturity.

About a year but it was maybe half the size when I got it.

Re: Cactus flowers!

Turns out that succulent is called Flaming Katy here. I saw one in a shop.
