Is #4 a Parodia ottonis or werneri? I have one exactly like it with buds and I have never really managed to decide which one it is. (I guess the flowers will tell in a week or two)

Beautifull flowers and plants.

Parodia,s produce some of my favourite cactus flowers, my P.Ottonis has already flowered for some time.

Thanks to everybody,

We shall keep an eye in that Parodia, I am not so sure that it is an ottonis but anyway, very soon we will know the sp.

Antonio,
that is quite a show! What do you do to produce so many blossoms on your plants? I do like your mysterious Parodia. Those buds look like fur caps.
The last image though is my favorite. The color is kind of unusual. What kind of cactus is that?

Hello Harald,

I give them fertelizer once a month during the growing seasson, I guess that is why they get so many flowers.

I have the feeling that the Parodia is a werneri (Notocactus uebelmanianus), we are going to find out very soon.

About the last pick, is a Gymnocalycium, but right now I can not tell wich one.

Saludos
Antonio

Great looking plants and crowns Antonio.

Could the last one be Gymnocalycium monvillei?

Well Tony, Gymnocalycium monvillei has flowers more white, like this
