i have always wanted to get sps but my lfs here does not have them because people do buy enough of them so i have to order them if i want one and it gets expensive so i just have not done it. i just cut out 6 big frags of xenia to sell to the lfs i was hoping he would want all that i have i could have made him 20 or more frags of that crap it is like a weed

new pic to come when i get home. the monti is coloring up well it still has a little brown spot in the middle but looks like it is getting smaller.

 

[JAG107]

Looks REAL good, man!
And Yote, WTF is up with you and montis? You and I might be in the same boat. I've been having random STN events with random species, then they stop halfway from total death and regrow. Weird! Anyway, looks like that green apple is gonna be a winner in the long run Daugherty. Now I want one!
