Welcome
to my cacti sales on eBay. I specialise in growing and selling rare and unusual
cacti – these are the ones you won’t find in the shops or garden centres as
they’re to difficult to obtain, or hard to raise from seed making them uneconomical
for commercial sellers. Prices may seem high, but this reflects the difficulty
& cost in obtaining rare seed for growing, the low yields/risk of growing rarer
cacti, & the fact that for quite a number of my plants there appears to be
very minimal (if any) other sources in the UK. If you want to develop a
greenhouse full of plants that other collectors don’t have you’ll find these
plants here!

If there is a problem with this contact me to explain, I’m usually
understanding and happy to sort out something for you. Sadly however,
non-paying buyers that do not communicate will have purchases cancelled through
eBays ‘unpaid item policy’ which has repercussions for your buying account. I
also block non-paying buyers from bidding on any future auctions.

requests, or problems with a plant you have received please contact me. I will
reply to your message as soon as I can.

For sale a large plant of Euphorbia Enopla. This is from my own collection that I am downsizing and I just dont have room for this sadly. A very striking Euphorbia with bright red spines that are almost cactus like, transitioning to black as the plant ages. This plant has been with me for some years now. If not already aware most Euphorbias produce a white sap when cut/damaged which can be an irritant, so this plant needs to be kept away from small children/pets, etc. A lovely plant to add to a collection! This plant can be posted, but will need to be a large parcel size so it can be well wrapped to avoid damage. Alternatively collection from near to Knaresborough, North Yorkshire for free is possible. (note pot is not included in sale).
It will be sent bare root without the pot, and will need potting up into a dry gritty cactus mix upon arrival. Water through the spring/summer/autumn months (march-september) and keep dry over winter. Let the soil dry completely before thinking about watering again. This species can be intolerant or mark in the cold, so I would suggest this is one to bring indoors for winter rather than leave in a cold greenhouse. It should do well indoors on a south facing windowsill in the UK, but as a general guide try to give this plant as much sun as possible for best growth. Acclimatise gradually to full sun to avoid scorch.
