Some of you may remember by recent post with the "leave no trace" themed habitat-style lophophora staging (https://www.reddit.com/r/habitatstyle/comments/1v3bjq9/a\_leave\_no\_trace\_inspired\_habitat\_style\_setup/)
I wanted to drop a quick update because last weekend entered that staging and a few others into a local cactus show hosted by the British Cactus & Succulent Society, and the results were... well, historic and a bit hilarious.
I'm thrilled to share that I got a clean sweep of the class! This was actually the first time the BCSS has ever held a dedicated class for habitat style staging. But the best part? One of the stagings I used actually featured dead plants. I had a laugh with the judges afterards about how a staging featuring dead plants could end up winning a prize at a show where "condition" was a main judging criteria. So perhaps this is a historic first - a dead cactus winning a cactus show!
I put together a video of the whole experience here: https://www.youtube.com/@greatnorthernexotic/videos
Friend gave some cactus few months back because i only have 1 gymno in the last 2 years in an attempt to drag me into the hobby. I guess it works. Now decided to buy few more cheap plants and try to mimick some habitat i saw in a YouTube video
