The Strombocactus is in flower too :) Sorry about the rubbish Photography I like the name in the picture so I can remember what the picture is of.

Does the name Harbour on the label indicate that it came from the collection of the late Dick Harbour?

We have been having quite a lot of sun which has encouraged the Ariocarpus to flower,
here's just a few.

this one had such large flowers I decided to measure them :eek:

and no flowers but a very purple ariocarpus, it is growing, new growth starts green then goes purple ( I call him prince) so I don't think it's stress.
None of these are species just odd hybrids from a friend.
