That's nice Phil.

Missed getting a shot of mine in flower, it's on the right but I did catch A. kotschoubeyanus v albiflorus, second flower on this one.

I am quite pleased with these as they along with 4 others are the first ones I have had and only cost a few Euros each (ELK).

Nice display. I just had turbs (and mesembs!) flowering today.

Dare I ask where you got them from!?

Wasn't it once called Neogomesia? I saw one when my granny took me to the nursery on The Lizard when I was a kid, but her purse wouldn't stretch to one of those as well. Talk about a deprived childhood!

I believe you're right there Phil.

David, mine came from a Czech nursery that was at ELK which is a cacti and succulent convention held every September in Belgium.
