Cubism Posted January 5, 2018 Hi all I have this button which is just beginning to form its first couple of flower buds ever. Can anyone ID this for me please? And also, is it self-sterile, or self-fertile? Thanks and much appreciation for anyone that can help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 thegreatartist Posted January 14, 2018 Lophophora jourdaniana puts out offsets in that manner. They also have rosepink flowers. Do the offsets have small spines that are barely visible? L.. Jourdaniana offsets less then caespitosa forms and the offsets and sometimes the main head have tiny spines under the whool. Could also be Fricii I think, the main head looks like those. Hard to tell... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Cubism Posted January 15, 2018 Thanks thegreatartist and thanks again Horsey for the input. Couldn't see any little spines but some of the offsets feel to the touch that there may be something under the fur on a few of them, I really don't know though. I would try get a close up but I only have my crappy phone camera which makes all close ups come out blurry as. I mixed some pollen back and forth between the three flowers, so will be interesting to see if anything comes of that. Either way, ID request was mostly out of curiosity and it would be nice to put a name to it, but this is one of my first cactus grown from seed (Koehres mixed LW), so I have a bit of a soft spot for it, and whatever it is I reckon its sexy as.... Thanks again......Cheers!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi all

Can anyone ID this for me please? And also, is it self-sterile, or self-fertile?
