My goodness Frank, what happened to those A. kotschoubeyanus f. Rio Verde?

They are offsets I cut off a bunch of them a couple years ago and even through are big and flowering, no one buys them at the shows Yes, it's an interesting phenomenon that I've also observed. I'm not professional grower but a hobbyist and I don't attend shows regularly but when I have excess seedl...

Llifle online Encyclopedia says following: " Fruit: 4-10 cm long, red, green or (usually) yellow coloured pear-shaped and more or less triangular. This fruit is a curious proliferating structure, bearing 3-4 cm long leaves, which ultimately fall away, looking more part of the stems than actual ...

Very nice.
Are those young plants at the base seedlings or offsets?

I can't tell difference between Echinocereus triglochidiatus var. mojavensis f. inermis and Echinocereus coccineus f. inermis .

You can try spraying with more fungicide, although I don't have any experience in using those. If se...

T. boedekerianus and T. hoferi:

This could be M. haageana, but I'm not certain.

Mammillaria crucigera subs. tlalocii.

Thanks for the answer. I think subterraneus and booleanus are synonyms; accepted name (at least in Llifle Database) is Turbinicarpus mandragora ssp. booleanus.

Nice pictures
I guess that drooping Turbinicarpus in the first picture is T. booleanus. I'm curious if the large one with brown epidermis in the last picture is T. bonatzii? It looks pretty old (I'd guess at least 20 years).

I think the last one is Cumulopuntia (Maihueniopsis), possibly C. boliviana (dactylifera).
