Garden Journal Community Challenge for the Month of September - Cactus for beginners.

A few months ago I made a seedbed for my cacti. I get small branches and leaves from my cacti and succulents and plant them.

For recycling, I planted all the kids cacti and leaves in egg cartons, cut in half. I added compost-fertilized-soil and they stayed in these boxes for a few months.

Best of all, they are easy cacti for beginners to handle and care for, so anyone can plant them and have them at home if they wish.

Now, after some time and finally having the large cactus children, I place them in small pots. I myself recycle the plastic containers that are supposed to be thrown out and turn them into small cans.

This little guy is a Monstruosus cactus. Let me show you the growth of the mother and her young son. The transplant went very well.

I also have this son of Aloe Juvenna, he is transplanted into this pot with good size roots.

This is a leaf of the succulent Haworthia Limifolia, I was surprised that during these months the plant did not germinate. But when I take it out of the germinator I notice that it has this little opening and a hole in the top of the limifolia leaf, I decide to open the blade with a small knife and I was surprised! The plant is germinating inside the leaf that I sowed. I never knew about this.

This is a small Opuntia Brasiliensis.

This is a succulent named Graptoveria Fenix.

This is a small Mickey Ears Cactus or Cactus Opuntia Rúfida or Red Nopal.

Here we have a small Mammillaria Vetula.

The Mammilaria Prolífera cactus, owes this name to the abundance of its young children reproducing around its entire body.

I actually love this little succulent, but I can't tell which species it belongs to.

My dear Bromeliad is growing very well. It was barely two centimeters tall when I transplanted it.

This cactus is called Rebutia, It is also well known as Sulcorebutia:

This is a small succulent named Kalanchoes, It is between the other two cacti that we already know the name of.

Here grouped:

These are all the little cacti that I was able to collect and plant in my garden for this entry of the Garden Journal Community Challenge in September hosted by @simplymike.
