Rebutia perplexa

Samsung Galaxy A70
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.

Are photographs entered in the past allowed? I think my last month's Bulbine mesembryanthoides flower fits fairly well here.
