Echinopsis (ROCKYOURGARDEN)

RockYourGarden is a concept with hardy garden cactus. In addition to the Chamaelobivia, the Echiniopsis will be added to this concept. At this moment the Echiniopsis is not offered for sale in bloom as an outdoor plant. Therefore this addition to the concept. Garden cacti are easy to care for and a real eyecatcher in the garden. To bloom they need a cold period. Echinopsis is a beautiful round outdoor cactus species. With from April beautiful, large white, yellow, salmon, red and purple flowers. The flowers are very large. First grows a 10-15 cm long flower stem with a 8-10 cm large colored flower. The Echinopsis Hybrid often blooms several times in the spring and summer. Echinopsis have a green to dark green color and small brown to brown-black spines. As this cactus ages it creates multiple side shoots. Thus the cactus forms a nice cluster. The plant is available year round. It is best to trade the plant in March, April and May. Then the cactus will flower and will continue to flower after the summer. Interesting for trade because the cactus is heat and drought tolerant. Echinopsis is marketed by F.N. Kempen V.O.F. from Mijdrecht and Rio Tollo from Pontevedra (ES). F.N. Kempen has submitted the plant for inspection.
