Something a little more subdued...

Came with a Neoporteria crispa label. Has spines like an A. capricorne, though you can't really see them here.

They all look really good but I still think Sylvia's the most vulgar :lol: , been dying to say that- sorry Sylvia.
Of course I meant her Echinopsis hybrids (tu)

varied collection of succulents and cacti but I especially like Euphorbia's, Ariocarpus and variegated agaves.
