Just Flowered, but what is it?

Post by stechad »

Came down to this flowering cacti this morning, unfortunately it was another unlabelled cacti that I don't have a clue on.
Complete with a couple of mealies.

I'd say a Matucana but not sure of the species.

After a very quick look around I think it might be Matucana calliantha the spines and tubercles look similar and I have seen quite a few with orange/red flowers as well as the deep red ones.

No problem on any of my access machines
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. Recently discovered gorgeous Gasteria.

Indeed it's all good now, oddly they weren't displaying for me for some time, perhaps a transient issue on my side.
