ID tiny globes????

[Philocacti]

The friend who gave me these told me that they're very slow growers.

They're less than a dime

Any idea???

Thanks in advance

Maybe alosteria of some sort.

[paradox]

are they Pelecephora?

are they Pelecephora?

Just came back to say same thing?

[Berengar]

First one is Epithelantha sp., maybe bokei, the second one is Blossfeldia lilliputiana.

[Philocacti]

I asked him if they're Pelecyphora and he said they're not.

I can't trust his I'd though cuz he calls Stenocereus, Lamero.

However the spines on these don't look like the regular Pelecyphora spines. I

Stenocereus was originally called Lemairocercereus. I guess that´s what he might have meant. And the first one is epithelantha micromeris or bokei, just like berengar said. Second one is a Blossfeldia.

Thanks a lot man we probably posted at the same time that's why I just saw it now.

So that's why.

What's really strange is that he and another cacti nursery owner call melted wax bridgesii and pachanoi lemairo as well.

maybe #1 could be some turbinicarpus?? I should search for the species though

[Berengar]

No way. Only T. pseudopectinatus or T. valdezianus could look somewhat similar, but this is Epithelantha 100%.

[mutant]

thats the ones ;)
