Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Plant from the collection I would most liked to have taken home with me on the Day? This would take some beating. Mammillaria guelzowiana.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Now we're talking business David - those Feros are fantastic!! Brilliant photos which really emphasise the variation in spine colour etc.. I must get over to Derek's and would possibly visit Richard & Wendy Edington who are only around 40 miles from Eau Brink.
The one unnamed would be latispinus.
Would you mind if I saved some of your photos?

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Looking again latispinus shouldn't have those whisker like radials, the central spines do look very latipsinus-like and although normally globose can grow to around 30cm tall eventually. Perhaps this is more so gracilis ssp. coloratus.

with the dreaded Oxalis I see.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Yes Bob in glasshouses that size fighting Oxalis must be like painting the Forth bridge! Certainly you can save the pictures Vic, but don't forget they are Derek's plants.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Looks more like the gracilis, not latispinus.
That M. guelzowiana is stunning.

Re: Bromley Branch Visit to Eau Brink Nursery
Look at all those Mesembs!! And that fenestraria has the most leaves I've seen.
