Looks great, it got me thinking it won't be long before supermarkets start selling cactus with a plastic led flower glued to it :grin:

Thank you all :)

The first photo was taken with a LED-light as light source.

This is mine- labelled Eriosyce tenebrica ssp. riparia (fankhauseri) FK402. It was grafted as a seedling on pereskiopsis, which was cut down and re-rooted, so produced offsets.

Not as good a photo as yours Christer, a bit out of focus!
