I haven't noticed this on Pediocactus before, or not that I remember.

Some? pollen
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.

I think it is commoner in cacti than we think, I noticed it on a plant last year which surprised me, but I can’t remember which one! Might have been a ferocactus...

Yes, I've seen it on Notocactus, very strong effect. Plus big flowers.
