Mammillaria polythele (v. nudum?)

Post by Davide »

Hi all, this is my M. polythele. As you can see it is quite strange with its spines only on a segment of the plant. Anyway it is normally blooming!

Lovely colour flowers, Davide! I like the wool too.

So, it's only a semi-nudum then? ;)

Its like two plants in one! Feel like spines, turn it that way. Not in a spiny mood, turn it the other way :)
