Is this Pereskiopsis

Posted by photoreilly none (My Page) on

Hey i was wondering if anyone could help me out on what this is. I ordered it thinking it was pereskiopsis but not sure if it pereskia. (I honestly dont really know the difference between the two) My plan was to order Pereskiopsis spathula so i could graft a couple different Trichocereus seedlings at about a month or two of age. If anyone could give me any kind of feedback on what exactly this is it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

That looks like it to me. Good luck with your grafting. Have someone take pictures and update us, please! I know many of us are interested in grafting. Where did you order the Pereskiopsis?

Its good to hear that. I have read of people buying pereskia on accident. I thought this really didn't look like Pereskiopsis spathula because of the leaves. I had a hard time finding any pictures that looked like these, the leaves usually looked thicker and more spread out. I will diffidently keep everyone updated. Oh yeah, I ordered these off of ebay for pretty cheap.

Can anyone else comment to make sure they are what I planned on ordering. Not that I don't trust your opinion hanzrobo just from what I've read is they look very similar. I just want to double check before I go forward with the process. I would also appreciate some info on what is the best medium to plant them in, light, pot, how to plant, etc. knowing that I plan on grafting with them.
Thanks
