BRILLIANT video Ana :-D your Euphorbia's are so BEAUTIFUL, and this video is very informative and fantastic info on how to tell the difference between the Male and female flowers, Good luck with the pollination and I think it looks like it has been a success, thanks so much for sharing, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and COCA COLA and CACTUS POWER haha to Las Vegas for a wonderful new week XXXX
Great video, Ana. Looking forward to seeing the results from the pollination. I thought my obesa was a male but turns out it’s female, the picture I referred to a while back had it back to front haha. Thank you for sharing with us as always, Ana. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌸🌺🌼🏜
Yes Ana, some Euphorbias are both male and female flowers. They have one central female flower surrounded by 5 male flowers. This of course looks like one flower. My Euphorbia zigzag does this. Sometimes pollination depends on how close a group the two plants are. For example, Euphorbia horrida, E. Polygona, E. Ceriformis ,E. Anoplia are in a close group and hybridize easy. Recently I tried E. Evansii & E. Ceriformis with no luck. But we must try to find out!! I would say that E. Obesa & E. Meloformis or pulvinata would take easy" since they are kinda similar or in a close group. Kinda like my Euphorbia enigma. Both E. Stellata and E. Evansii grow branches from a central growing point. So are similar in that way. And made the E. Enigma. The only way to really know for sure is to try it!! Normally Euphorbia seeds sprout pretty fast. Once they are up and sprouted , take them out of the bag or from under cover. At this stage they are different than cactus. They need fresh air. If left in the bag they will rot. Thanks very much for the shout out!!! 😊👍 this was an excellent video Ana!!! You showed the flowers well and explained different ways to pollinate also!! Great stuff!!! Thanks again Ana!!! From Morris park in the Ozarks, out to Las Vegas, have a great week ahead!!! Peace"Love,Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌸🌿🌷🌳💐🌲🌹🌴🌻
I use a cotton swab to transfer the pollen , Back at the "Madlab "Let's see what we can hybridization..hahahahahh,lol. Hope to see the New Hybrid creation :) ......Cactus On!
Wow super pretty ng enopla grabeng flowers 🤩🤩🤩 but obesa is one of my favourite. Yeah I think that’s the best way, just carry one plant to the other and rub. Wow successful 🤩
I hope it will be successful. It will be interesting to see how the cross will look like. Oo nga, pagdikitin na lang yung flowers. Trabahong tamad. Lol! 🤣 Wala kasi akong dalang tweezers when I was filming. Thank you Katherine!
Great video, and the flowers for a male compared to a female, as in your video, are very different looking so will be easy to remember... I think you might be successful with the Pollination, so far they look quite plump 😊👍🏻🌵🌞🌵🌞
Haha. I did not even know that there is a term for it. The brush did not work so I just had to do it the “crude way”. 😄 I believe it is a success though, I see some swelling. 🤞
It looks like your plant is developing seeds. Will they grow? I don’t know. If they do, of course you’ll have a hybrid, since the parents were two different Euphorbias.
Hi Anna, excuse me i just wanna ask u, i bought a rebutia muscula today, it was is a very beautiful bloom and it also has a lot of pups, but the problem was it was a lot of glue and fake flowers, and when i taked them off, i taked off some spines from the top, im so scared if that s gonna be harmful to the cactus and should i be very worry??!!
A few spines knocked off should not hurt the cactus. Just take care not to rip off the entire central top portion. That is the meristem or the growing point of the cactus. If that is damaged, the cactus will stop growing. However, it will live on by producing pups. 🙂
I did not pick out the male flowers. Next time I can try that. 🙂 But this certain euphorbia that I was working with, the pollen easily falls at the slightest touch.
It's interesting that you are able to play a part of their sex life. Heehee. I also planted seeds. 2 out of 5 are still with me. I found them very slow to germinate, months. The 2 are now nearly four yrs old.

Hope it went right love to see the results
Wow ! Yes i see buds 👍
good afternoon, what gorgeous succulents. how gorgeous they are, how much beauty, just lovely
Hi Ana. Good to know the reproductive organ of these cactus. Sooo interesting!

Thank you Clyde for all those loads of information. 😃
Ang gaganda😍😍
I use a cotton swab to transfer the pollen , Back at the "Madlab "Let's see what we can hybridization..hahahahahh,lol.
Hope to see the New Hybrid creation :) ......Cactus On!
That is a great idea. The pollen will stick to the cotton. I will do that next time. 😃 Thanks you.
Gorgeous Euphorbias Ana and any excellent vídeo 😄❤️
I love Euphorbia.. Hello Ana..
Wow!! What great information!!! I didn't know this about succulents!! Love your channel name too!!! 🌱🌾🌺
Always Great information 👍
Nice cactus, thank you very much for seeds! 🌵
Thanks for that info Ana, it was interesting!
Your welcome. I’m glad that you like this one. 🙂
Good luck Ma'am Ana..but i think it would be successful...a new hybred of your own... I will surely wait on the progress..
Ingat lagi and God bless. 🙏
Hi Miss Anna i hope you can make a short video regarding peanut cactus some care tips 🤞✌️ cause i find it difficult caring for them here 😅
Looking forward to the update
It’s now up in my channel. ☺️
Wow super pretty ng enopla grabeng flowers 🤩🤩🤩 but obesa is one of my favourite. Yeah I think that’s the best way, just carry one plant to the other and rub. Wow successful 🤩

Very interesting. Thank u
Ang gaganda po
Very interesting 🤔, please keep us posted if it was successful.😊

Hi sis Ana. Cheers!
Big like! Always inspired by your videos!
Mukhang matagumpay nmn Ma'am...🤗🤗
Naku, fingers still crossed. Ang bagal ng development. 🙂
Thanks for info. Amazing! Salamat!
Interesting
Yes🙌🏻
Thanks for the knowledge
I must see if that Coke with coffee can be found here in Canada!
If I’m not mistaken, the method you used to transfer the pollen is called The Bump ‘n Grind...or am I getting this mixed up with a dance? 🤨
Haha. I did not even know that there is a term for it. The brush did not work so I just had to do it the “crude way”. 😄 I believe it is a success though, I see some swelling. 🤞
Yes i hope so
ate ana hi pohh heheh why do my euph. obesa have different patterns ☺️
It looks like your plant is developing seeds. Will they grow? I don’t know. If they do, of course you’ll have a hybrid, since the parents were two different Euphorbias.

@@CactusCaffeine and how do i know that it stopped growing or it is dead?? Im very worry about it and i dont wanna lose it😭😭😭
Heaven knows that i see some small cotton spot in the middle,(i mean where spines come off)
Beautiful 🎉🎉
Do obesa put out off shoots, pups, or just seed?
As far as I know, offsetting is rare for Obesas, unless it is a hybrid. The best and sure way is by seeds.
Did you consider picking a flower or two from the male and brushing it on the female?
I did not pick out the male flowers. Next time I can try that. 🙂 But this certain euphorbia that I was working with, the pollen easily falls at the slightest touch.
But they look like two different species which means that you are making a hybrid they will never be a original.
Yes, that is what I am going for. It will be interesting to see what the hybrid would look like. 🙂 Thank you for watching! 🌵☕️
First comment again☺️
😉🏅🌵
Looks like it worked
My fingers are still crossed. 😉
❤
Coff-a-Cola?
🤣 That’s a good one.
It's interesting that you are able to play a part of their sex life. Heehee. I also planted seeds. 2 out of 5 are still with me. I found them very slow to germinate, months. The 2 are now nearly four yrs old.
