My mom in Louisiana has the descendent of a pineapple that a relative brought back from Hawaii decades ago. Every few years the thing will throw up a stalk, flower, and make a hand-grenade sized pineapple, the top of which gets rooted and replaces the parent plant when it dies. I think she overwinte...

Before and After

I was going to venture a guess on either Rebutia or Sulco too, just before I saw your response, Daiv. Mmm, that's a possibility too. Guess I will have to wait and see if/when it flowers - I don't have any known Rebutias or Sulcos to compare the spination etc. I'm just glad I haven't killed it yet. ...

Back from vacation and finally had a chance to take a good look at Mystery Plant #1. Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm still not sure - C. crassiepalus has the right color felt but the overall shape and rib count isn't quite the same, while N. herzogiana has similar spines but the felt doesn't mat...

Turning 30 wasn't so bad. I'm a little cautious as to what 40's going to look like in a couple of years though; I'm already noticing the print is getting too small and the floor is further down there than I think it should be. :? It's a good thing I don't have much lawn or I would be tempted to tell...

Anyone want to play Guess This Crest?
Bought NOID, of course. I've had it for a few years and it hasn't flowered yet; thought I'd killed it last winter but it plumped and greened right up when I started watering it this season. It's in a 4-5" pot. http://www.cactiguide.com/forum/userpix/561_DSCF4238sm_1.jpg And a close-up of the sp...
