Random Trichocereeae stuff
After a few days of coming home to this sort of thing later last week:
It was great to be at home over the weekend to see some open flowers!

Re: Random Trichocereeae stuff
Yeah, I have a halfway attitude to rebutias: mediolobivias and aylosteras are Aylostera but the sulcos, weingartias etc. are still just fancy Rebutia.

Re: Random Trichocereeae stuff
Cintia is a nicer name, they always remind me of car tyres, cute little plants.

I'm not really sure! By keeping them near to other plants that the mites prefer?

Re: Random Trichocereeae stuff
I have a great solution to coming home and finding your flowers shut: retire!

Then one with a white throat and open shape:

Re: Random Trichocereeae stuff
There have been some yellow Lobivia pentlandii during the last week but they've not really been open when I've been around. Some red and pink forms waited until today:

Re: Random Trichocereeae stuff
At the far end, the aylosteras continue. Fewer pinks now, more reds, oranges and yellows, including these.
