That .... was ..... worthwhile ....
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.

Re: A nice suprise today...
I'm guessing the plant is only a couple of cm across? Mine have produced flowers when ridiculously small.

Different Lobivia haematantha forms can produce typically large flowers in an amazing range of colours: white, pink, red, orange, yellow...
