Hob, your greenhouse is going to look just like Gunnar's if you don't watch out!

Hi hob,

Great show !!

I am particularly pleased to see that FR1113 -pygmaea v. haagei with a bloom. I've had that clone for years and can barely keep it alive, let alone see a flower!!

I suspect that it is just too hot here in summer for it, and some other rebutia, sulcorebutia clan.

Thanks for the re-assuring treat :)

Nomenclature

Post by readymade »

I think weingartia and sulcorebutia have all been absorbed by rebutia now, haven't they?

I have one of those "weingartia" above. Mine has loads of wool. It looks like somebody dripped sweet roll frosting all over it.

Your Rebutias are sweet little plants Hob, they seem to be on a roll at the moment. A couple of names there that I've never met before.
I love the pygmaeas.

No doubt about it Hob you're getting a better flowering season with these than the average Tasmanian one affords... they're sweet!
