0 paradox Posted January 28, 2008 mammillaria gracilis perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 tonic Posted February 3, 2008 (edited) Looks more like a Mammillaria bombycina to me, the soft radial spines that are light coloured and the darker brownish hooked central spine makes me think that is the species I mentioned. It could be a similiar species. Though fairly certain it's a Mammillaria bombycina. It will be easier to ID in a year or two. EDIT: On second inspection it doesn't appear to have hooked radials..hmmm must be a similiar species then? Edited February 3, 2008 by Phosphene_Dream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
