Mammillaria guelzowiana must have one of the most recognisable vibrant colours in the species

If only I could keep the plants longer, I have a job to keep them more than 2 years.

Nice one (again (tu) ) Jim, flying the flag for Adromischus flowers :grin:

Good to see a Frithia. Where are the other mesemb flowers?? :P
Ever hopeful, trying to grow plants from arid sunny climates in the UK!
Lithops, Haworthia, Adromischus, other south African succulents including Ceropegia and some Crassula.
