My first Echinopsis Schick of the season.

Post by Cidermanrolls »

Mine are a little later than others’ but here is Nocturne, my first Schick this year. The plant is scruffy and will be used for pupping, but the flower is pretty.

Envious!
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.

It’s not the biggest of Schick flowers. Probably about 4” across.
Fangri La followed two days after. This is a slightly larger flower.
