Lobivia 'Pink Ice'

We've had this plant for a long time and used to offer it for sale. But, honestly, we just have a problem growing it well. But as scruffy and ugly as the plant may be, the flower makes it worth keeping it around. It came to us as Lobivia 'Pink Ice'.

Lobivia 'Pink Ice'

Another plant which was flowering is Lobivia 'Pink Ice' (Syn.: Echinopsis 'Pink Ice'). This is an old hybrid which hasn't outlived its usefulness but is nevertheless sometimes hard to find. It blooms most of the summer and remains small, making it a fine windowsill plant. We're out of stock at the nursery, but still have our stock plants and just love that flower!
