Cacti in the supermarket

No, don't think, I haven't been to the supermarket today.
I took these photos before.
Today I was at an exhibition of cacti and succulents, which was held in another city.

But since I need to download these photos from a tablet to a computer, then reduce them, so be patient, you will see them later 😉

Well, now I will show you a photo of cacti from the flower department of the supermarket.

The photos I were taken with a Lenovo TAB 2 A10-70L tablet
Stenocactus albatus

It looks pretty, I almost bought it.

Looking closely at her flowers, I saw that they were filled with a large number of thrips!!! 😱
But how can plant nursery owners not be ashamed to supply such plants to stores ??? 🤔

Actually, this is a disgrace!
In Russia, I have never seen sick plants or plants with pests for sale!

So in Cyprus there are no checks in plant nurseries and at exhibitions, it's just awful!!! 😠

Thrips and aphids I poison with a spray from cockroaches or from flies.
So far, this plant has not been affected.
