This is a 2 year old seedling, it came from the seedpool under the name Mediolobivia atrovirens. It was clear about a year ago that wasn't right however and just to prove the point it opened these the other day
An Echinocereus viridiflorus, one of that group at least.
Think the seed was mislabelled

Re: Think the seed was mislabelled
Apologies for this. I don't keep old copies of the seed pool list, just update the same file, so can't check if I had E. viridiflorus seed at the same time and made a mistake, Well, its a nice plant anyway

Re: Think the seed was mislabelled
No apology needed mate, I mean its free seed anyway and I've got some great plants out of the seedpool
These viridiflorus have particularly colourful spines as it happens.
