Thought I'd share this colourful show, taken in the greenhouse yesterday. Three Rebutias, five Parodias, three Lobivias, a Strombocactus and a X Ferobergia. Happy to provide species names if anyone would like them!
Apologies for my unsteady photography.
Cheers
Mike

Phew. A real mix of colours. Super. This hot weather is definitely bringing out the best in our plants.

Re: Colour!
Yes, a great collection of colour. I guess sunglasses are in order to go in the greenhouse, along with the flip-flops!
Just south of Manchester and I cannot remember a better summer for years, the dry conditions and so much sun have let the plants grow as they should do and they look fantastic for it.

Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.
