Pelecyphora strobiliformis
They never seem to flower at the same time if at all
Any one know about adding flowering fertilizer to get more cactus flowers?

Many in the Cactus world are obsessed with Copiapoa columna-alba
me, being one of them
But I only had one that was old enough to flower

Luckily, I have friends that also share my love
Ed Reed, the curator at the CSU Fullerton education Arboretum
Bought the Rosmarie Saurer (sp?) collection after she died
Which was a large part of the Ann Shein Copiapoa collection that Rosmarie bought after Ann died

So we how have a mating pair

Nice looking plants. I almost feel bad for my Thelocactus Hastifer when they flower compared to a bicolor but they are pretty sweet plants
