About 5 months ago I arrived to Argentina, a couple of weeks after that I decided to get a plant, a cactus, to make me some company. I named him Cacnea, I know it sounds silly.. But for me, has worked pretty well. Lately I've been thinking about getting another one, plants are great for deco and actually for developing some sense of responsability, not mentioning the fact that they actually are good listeners. They just need a small quantity of water, a tiny space in your house and some sun baths. So.. Why not?
It's quite funny, I love to call greenhouses as "plants orphanages", you know.. Because they're just babies (or kids) expecting to be adopted. I decided to go to the Japanese Garden (that I'll show you later), because I was told they had this amazing greenhouse with a lot of flowers, cactus and suculents.. Oh my.. I COULDN'T DECIDE! Flowers were so pretty, yes.. I thought about getting a couple of lilies, some daisies or maybe a couple of tulips, but I don't have a balcony so I don't have much light to offer to them, which means that once again I was getting a cactus.
They were like a lot of tiny friends, this is just a small part. All sizes, a lot of colors, al lot of spines.
They were all sort of cactus in here, some with some crazy spines that looked like hair, other with tiny ones, some had flowers and really weird shapes.. But they were some that looked like they were made of stones (i'm not even sure if those were real). I didn't get a succulent because I had some bad experiences in the past with that kind of plant, I don't have gardening skills, so cactus are great for me.
This one looks like it's made of fluff.
These are the weird looking guys..
Stone cactus is the name the owners gave them.
Would it be accurate?
Weird shapes! Weird looks.. Weird.
Sadly for me.. The greenhouse was closing at the time I arrived, so i managed to take some photos and to look around, so I'll have enough time to think and decide which one do I like the most to get it on monday when I go back. Any help?
