ECHINOFOSSULOCACTUS—See Stenocactus. 
ECHINOPSIS or “EASTER LILY CACTI.” Uusally 
begin to flower at that season and will continue to do 
so intermittently throughout the summer. The flowers 
are extremely large, often six to ten inches in length 
and diameter of the widely spread frilled petals. Some 
are quite fragrant. They are the easiest of all cacti to 
grow thriving in rich soil with plenty of water and 
sunshine, although some like a partial shade. They 
are more hardy than most cacti. The freely pro- 
duced offsets are the most satisfactory of all for deco- 
rating small bowls and pots as they stand more neglect 
and do not need any special caré.
