A little brightness for today

Trichodiadema densum has sat "glummum" during this cold damp dark fortnight. Then this morning ...... wow.
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.

Very nice.
It really does look like a Mammillaria, apart from the flowers anyway.
