Ariocarpus retusus
To me Ariocarpus is one of the most fascinating of cactus genera. And though A. retusus isn't among the most rare of the group, it never loses its attraction to me. Last week it was blooming away, along with a beautiful blooming Lophophora diffusa nearby (not peyote [L. williamsii], which in the United States is illegal to possess!).

ReplyDeleteRika, your English isn't bad at all, especially considering how terrible my meager German and terrible Spanish are...not to mention non-existent Japanese! Your English is a lot better than some native English speakers I know!
ReplyDeleteLuther, you're too kind, thank you. Your words motivate me to study harder :)
