Beautiful plants and pics, Arjen!

it hasn't? it's a beautiful sight when it does, but I bet you already know that ;) got many buds?
as a matter of fact I was given another one a few days ago, supposedly with a white flower, it is however very small so I'll have to wait a few years to be sure...

some new plants that were given to me by a fellow collector (including the white flowered g. horstii): https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set ... 582&type=1

some flowers of today:

Amazing stuff, I'm just barely taking my first stumbling steps into Weingartia. That weingartia callichroma var. longispina is odd and wonderful. How big is that flower on Echinocereus subinermis? It looks like it could be 6" across!

thanks dean! ;) I recommend getting more weingartia they are beautiful and mostly easy to grow!
I don't know how big that flower is, I'll see if it's still open today so I can measure it and let you know

Is it just me, or does Weingartia callichroma var. longispina have some resemblance to sulcorebutia? (I know about the recent lumping in Mosti & Papini (2011), just noticing superficial similarity in how this plant strikes me.)
