I wanted to share my bargain Cactus I got today, I got them at WM of all places, none are named, but I will figure out what some of them are, or does anyone know?

This one I paid $1.00 for it:

AWESOME!! I wish I could come across deals like that, Bev!! You did great! I think Hubby would find a good attorney if I brought another plant in right now!! We are very short on room since bringing my outdoor, but not winter-proof plants in. [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

I love the little one bottom left in the second pic...nice! [thumb]

Tonya..did you notice I happen to find ones that have babies on them or in the pots????? [clappy] I also got the little bitty clay pots on sale for 10 cents each, I only bought 10 of them and I am sure later I will wish I had of bought more. [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin] DH did raise his eyebrows when he seen what I had in my cart and when I explained how much of a bargain they were he just kind of slumped his shoulders and said nothing more [angel]

Great finds, I am always checking the cactus out at WM.. I have made some nice groupings in bigger clay pots with the smaller cheaper ones.

WOW Comfrey - you got some very healthy looking plants for terrific prices!!!

My WalMart is the pits! We supposedly have the smallest one in the company, and they do not stock it well at all! They are trying to build a SuperWalMart just down the road, but the neighborhood is fighting it strongly.

I love that you got the plants that have the babies on the side - I always try to do that too - means the mamma is happy!

The WM I went to is not the normal one I shop at, but is closer to my house, So I will be going there more often, [thumb] even though it is a Super store..it is small compared to most, I figure they just need to get rid of these to be able to use the space for Xmas stuff. There was another woman looking at them at the sametime I was, and everyone I looked at and put back down she put in her cart [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin] I hope she made good choices [Big Grin]

Thank You Margaret!!!! I love cactus and they love me since I neglect them badly!

Wow.... that a great deal.
Wish I get some great deal like you too. =)
Hubby got me two pot for AUD3. I transfered it into a bigger pot and noticed it turns soggy and brown. Was sad to look at it like that. Was so worry wondering did I hurt it and etcs? Then last week, I took it out into sunny sunshine and then move it back to a little shade. Then left it outside with little shade and noticed it is green and strong.
I bought barrel cactus's seed but nothing happen.

Really love your cactus,Confrey.

Good Deal Comfrey!! WM has them on sale here too!! 2 for 1.00 a couple of weeks ago they were 5 for 5.00.. But had to get 5..

Not much a Hubby can say when their .50 cents a pc, and the pot is a dime
