Thanks for your comments.

I originally got the plant from a member of our branch about ten years ago who wanted to make room in his greenhouse, and it has been potted on several times since. The only special treatment it gets is a spray over with SB plant invigorater every two weeks during the summer to stop any red spider taking residence.

The name on the label is Rebutia heliosa albiflora 'Apricot sunrise'
Joined Havering branch 2006, although have been growing on and off since the age of ten!
Have a large balanced collection of both cacti and succulents but enjoy growing cristate, monstrose and generally anything a bit weird!
