Delosperma ID, Cactus ID and a pic of Salvia nemorosa

wendal · 06-13-09, 18:33

Ok, I picked up these Delosperma plants last summer. The tags only stated that they are Delosperma. Anyone know what species they are?

Pic 1- Yellow flowered, Delosperma

Pic 2- White flowered, Delosperma

Pic 3- Purple flowered, Delosperma (this one almost died over winter, where as the others stayed green all season)

Pic 4- Cactus I picked up. No tag. Reminds me of a trichocereus.....except for the really white parts the spikes come out of....

Pic 5- This one reminded me of a Pereskopsis. Once again, no tag.

Pic 6- No idea what this could be. The long whitish 'spikes' are actually soft like a dry blade of grass.

Pic 7- A bunch of Salvia nemorosa that I planted last year. Just for fun

Pic 5 looks like Opuntia Subulata. Almost sure Pic 6 is Opuntia articulata var. papyracantha. Sorry don't know what the other are.
