This is Turbinicarpus laui, fowering and offsestting normally.
But also deciding to pop out a flower bud towards the base of the plant instead of an offset.
Turbinicarpus jauernigii as previously described here:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=170569
Continuing to grow a 3-headed offset instead of a flower.
I'm going to get the Geiger Counter out just to check the background radiation.

Re: Variable growth in Turbinicarpus
Very strange, the lower flower has now opened on the T. laui.
