Not knowing it's own name doesn't seem to have affected its flowering in this lovely sunshine

It looks very special, in pink or white. I've never heard it called anything other than Turbinicarpus, though...

+ Normanbokea valdeziana (H.Moeller) Kladiwa & Buxb.
but - Pseudosolisia valdeziana (H.Moeller) Y.Itô as it isn't validly published.

If it's accepted by the DNA surveys that Browningia and Rebutia are closely related, it's only a matter of time before we have Carnegia Valdezianus, and it's not April 1st until tomorrow.

All this naming lark does allow you to buy more plants when you are starting out in the hobby :wink:

This is my white-flowered form (with a pink tinge). I still favour the name Turbinicarpus valdezianus, and won’t be changing the label any time soon!

That is quite some list. :)
Still a very pretty plant by what ever name.
I have to say that I do like Ralph's white flowered form, I don't think I have seen one of those before.

My white ones have finally opened. Slight red stripe on the petals.
