And a few close ups....
They are all small plants yet, not as small as the RSM stunted Echinopsis seedlings on the first and second photos though - they cause some damage!

I think I shall label it as ‘possibly Fantasy’.

Hi, Can anyone identify this Epi? I bought it on EBay.co.uk from a British supplier as E.’Fantasie’ which it clearly isn’t. Fantasie being an orange hybrid. I was hugely disapointed it wasn’t what I bought, as it started to open, but by the time it had fully opened I was delighted, what a flower!! I...
