Copiapoa ID help

Post by sechjoh »

Hello all!

I have this plant that was marked Copiapoa cinerea GC 305.01 on the label. I am not sure this is correct.
It lives in a 7 x 7 cm pot and flowers for he first time :)

Christer: GC305.01 is Graham Charles' Cinerea. However, if this is the same plant that you posted a picture of in this forum back in 2010 it's not doing very well. In that case a change of compost is needed.

It's difficult to give a firm identification given it's condition.
