peyote grafts

                          A Peyote grafted onto San pedro


This is an old graft we have in our greenhouse.
It is a Lophophora Williamsii (caespitosa) scion, grafted onto a T.Pachanoi (backeberg) stock.
Nearly 12 cms across now!
For some reason our grafted Peyote seem to flower later in the season than the non-grafts. No idea why.


Looking nice now it is pushing flowers out.
Seems to be pushing lots more pup out this year, too.
You can see the stretch marks on the skin, where the stock has forced the scion to grow to rapidly.
Another one for the 'beautifully grotesque' catagory methinks.
