Hi Ray
I got three of these from a collection in Birmingham, they had been badly mealied, , now they are all flowering and slowly gaining nice new growth. Hopefully one day they'll be fabulous big plants and the areoli will join along the ribs.

Super pictures
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.
