Re: Drosanthemum aggeneys
Fine flower though
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Definitely worth growing for the flower.

Re: Drosanthemum aggeneys
Just in case it is not evident to Forum members, "aggenys" in not a specific name, but the name of a big mining town in Bushmanland. So this would have been the area in which the original material was found. The papillate leaves are typical of the genus but I can't help with identification of the species. It looks as though the longer flowering stems could be pruned back later to encourage all that new growth from the base of the plant.
