I would love to have some of the Birds nest Sansevieria, and the callisia repens. I have tons of hens and chicks..a few diff varieties. I will send you a few larger Hens, and a few smaller of each. if you would like.

Hmmm. I thought you said the last time round that the crinitas were bigger, like two inches across each puffball? These are rather smaller than that, more like an inch across. You had theorized glochidiata last year; would the flowers help to confirm or deny that? The pictures I see online have pinker flowers and lighter spines but maybe that's normal variation?

Hi Dave... Ya know... this cactus has Many different names it goes by, but Opuntia argentiniana isn't a correct name, but that's the only one that comes up with pics of the correct cactus. What I mean is, the names this plant usually goes by is one of the many I listed above (plus many more I didn't list) and O. argentiniana isn't one of them... O. argentiana isn't either... It's O. argentina. Here's a list from Desert-Tropicals: Synonym: Brasiliopuntia argentina, Brasiliopuntia brasiliensis ssp. subacarpa, Brasiliopuntia subacarpa, Opuntia neoargentina, Brasiliopuntia neoargentina, Brasiliopuntia schulzii, Opuntia schulzii, Opuntia bahiensis, Opuntia argentina, Opuntia brasiliensis, Cactus brasiliensis, Brasiliopuntia bahiensis BUT... When I searched for the spelling you provided, Only Four links come up for a cactus by that name and two are either not about cactus or doesn't show an image. One was for a company that sells Flats of cactus with one listed as O. argentiniana and THAT appears to be the Mystery Cactus!!! The Other is from someone that Posted a thread Right Here on Garden Web, asking what the cute little cactus she had, that grew into a Monster is called! She even posted a picture! So, the cute little plant I've seen in planters, doesn't stay little. It must be a seedling... because the O. argentina cuttings I've seen look the same but are HUGE. That's why I suggested them. THANKS SO MUCH!!!! I had a feeling that's what it was, but without any confirmation or pictures or name to go with it, I couldn't be sure! Thanks again Dave. Mystery Solved! That didn't take long! :-) I love this forum!

Looks like a Stetsonia Coryne:). It's little still and once it blooms you will really know the true identity of your little friend;).
