Rebutia fiebrigii

This plant always blooms through the winter, when greenhouse does not get that hot on sunny days. It does not produce spectacular shows of tens of flowers opening simultaneously, like it does in the spring. Instead, at any winter day it has two or three new flowers open.

Mammillaria conspicua

Mammillaria conspicua is a form of Mammillaria haageana, and with age it should develop lots of white wool under the spines. The young seedlings I gave do not show it yet, but they look pretty anyways.
