Varieties include Euphorbia, Cycas , Haworthia hybrids, Ariocarpus, Mammillaria, and South American cacti such as Copiapoa as well as crested and mutant forms of cactus and succulents.

Prices ranged from twenty-three dollars, for a small Mammillaria, mound-like and spiky, to fourteen hundred dollars, for a rare, forty-year-old Euphorbia confinalis rhodesia, a bumpy Zimbabwean pillar sourced from a private collector.

The list of plants sounds a little like characters from a Greek tragedy/summer horror flick: Euphorbia, cycads, Haworthia hybrids, Ariocarpus, Mammillaria and South American cactuses, including Copiapoa as well as crested and mutant forms of cactuses and succulents.

Some of the latter—such as the Crown of Thorns and the Mammillaria—have small or infrequent flowers.

Those with long-tubed flowers comprise the genera Melocactus, Mammillaria, Echinocactus, Cereus, Pilocereus, Echinopsis, Phyllocactus, Epiphyllum, &c.; while those with short-tubed flowers are Rhipsalis, Opuntia, Peireskia, and one or two of minor importance.
