| A property has recently been acquired by close relatives of mine who plan to develop it. This involves demolishing the existing house and destroying the TWO MASSIVE CACTI in the backyard. One is a Cereus peruvianus (do not confuse with Trichocereus) and the other a monstrose form of it. I can send pictures if requested. Many good sized cuttings will be taken, so if anybody would like a big landscape cactus, I'd be more than happy to organise a trade. I won't post them via mail as the cuttings will be too big (Victoria only)

| What a shame, I'm sure wishing I lived down there right now, I'd love a piece of that monstrose plant! Lis :'( P.S. Happy new year! |

| Well, if you would really like it, I could find a smallish offset for you. I'll check the postage rates and determine the best size for mailing. Jon |

Hi Jon,
I live in Melbourne and would love to have a look at this cactus. When would be a suitable time/date ? |

Hi Jon,
A smallish offset would be fabulous, and I could send you the money for the postage! I'll send you an email now.
Cheers, Lisa :) |

Lisa, check your email...
Ajay, if you are interested, I can send you a picture, then if you like it I will get some for you. Jon |

Ok Jon,
You could send me a picture or two. Alternatively, I could pick them up from your place...

| Hey Neil, I am in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Send me an email if you like, and perhaps we could arrange something. Jon |

Hi Jon,
I would only like the montrose form of C.Peruv. I would like a cutting of about 2 feet long (preferably with many branches growing off it). I'm afraid the best I can do is 3 offsets (about 1 cm dia) of Rebutia (purple variety),
and some Adromischus cooperi, Notocactus Lenighausii (2 offsets). Pick which one you would like and we can meet at a common place, say Q.Vic market ? |

| Hey Ajay, sorry I havn't organised something with you sooner. I'll see if there is something to your specifications, most likely I'd say. Perhaps we could meet on Sunday morning, send me your phone number in an email and it can be arranged. Jon |
