Ravishing Russian!
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.

Re: Stapeliad thread
Looking through this thread so far made me wish I hadn't neglected my plants so much of late, stapeliads seem to take this personally very quickly! Those hybrids in particular are really nice, Diane.
Here is one that is still growing nicely for me. The picture was taken in September last year; it is Tromotriche longii sprawling over a pot of Haworthia nigra. No pong.

A lovely plant Christian, sometimes the smallest flowers can be the most impressive.
