Re: Who turned the light off?
It was pretty much inaccessible but I know it's a Rebutia heliosa but can't remember the variety!

Sunshades please .... now
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.

Re: Who turned the light off?
Maybe this one below? Anyway, it's stunning! How old could it be?

Re: Who turned the light off?
Yes I'm pretty sure that's it Mat. I've had it about ten years or so and it's in a 2" pot. Not a fast grower, at least not for me!

Re: Who turned the light off?
Well I checked this lunchtime and it's RH271, Rebutia heliosa v. condorensis. So Mat was spot-on

Re: Who turned the light off?
Rebutias can certainly put on a fine display. This was my R. steinmanii on Tuesday.
