And an unnamed AbbeyBrook hybrid. The deep magenta stigma is superb.
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.

The purple stigma is inherited from 'Johnson's Unnamed hybrid' that Brian Fearn has used in a lot of crosses. I think the colour of your flower really makes it stand out though compared to pinker flowers.
