Not sure what it is but it’s flowering well on a dull rainy day.

Brightened the day (tu)
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.

Is there anything visible on the label at all?

The piece in the soil seems to end in ‘es’ which would make it C echinoides?
