M S Smith Posted July 1, 2006 Not as well known as you might think. It looks to be Turbinicarpus alonsoi. I'm actually suprised I guessed this one right (I think) without even looking at my books. I did though look to confirm by a google image search. It can grow fairly variable, but I think I got the ID right. It appears to be one of few Turbinicarpus with such dark colored flowers. ~Michael~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted July 3, 2006 Hi Michael, thank you for the ID! Unfortunately I have more plants that are unlabeled than labeled and i am happy about every one i can put a label on. bye EG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Genius Posted July 11, 2006 Gymnocalycium Leanum Some Loph No Label; sunburn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M S Smith Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) The "no lable; sunburn" plant is Strombocactus disciformis, one of those reputed peyotes that really isn't a peyote. Nice score. Oh, and that isn't sunburn, looks more like natural "corking." It's harmless pretty much, but keep this plant on the extreme dry side as it will rot easily. ~Michael~ Edited July 11, 2006 by M S Smith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted July 11, 2006 Hi Michael, a lot of my plants had "corking" this winter. I almost lost this strombocactus over the winter and i was happy to see the flower. Thanks a lot for helping with the label. bye EG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
