Sulcorebutia canigueralii

The flowers of this cactus are certainly jaw dropping. Sulcorebutia canigueralii is highly variable in its plant form, but the flowers, wow!

 

Enjoy your plants!

Sulcorebutia pulchra

According to Anderson et. al., this is the same plant as the previous post, just a representative of its variability. OK. I know they have their reasons, but I'm not convinced. I think I have a philosophical difference with them about the nature of the naming process. But that's another discussion. In the meantime I'll stick with the Sulcorebutia name and list the synonyms (including Rebutia canigueralii).

Enjoy your plants (even when you're not sure what name it should have)!

Rebutia canigueralii var. pulchra

This picture was taken this summer, and it's not as good a photo as I'd like.  But it shows some of the beautiful character of the plant. I've got to get out and get some new photos!

See you at the show

I probably won't have time to post much during the show & sale. I'll be loading plants out tomorrow afternoon; it'll take about three trips with our van (need to get a larger truck for this). The sale is then on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I'll take photos, but I'll really be beat each evening. Next week then!

Finally, a picture of Sulcorebutia canigueralii. It's been blooming like mad and putting on quite a show.
