Gorgeous flowers and colors, Jens!
Only when the last tree has died, the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we cannot eat money.

The predominating color on these hot summer days is yellow.

Re: J-Cacti 2012
Beautiful, Jens!
I've the same Notocactus (Brasilicactus) but it flowered not again after I've bought it. Something is wrong in my cultivation.
Have you got some hints for me for its cultivation.

Nice flowers! I like how that last one is slightly green!

Re: J-Cacti 2012
Thanks Ralf, Arjen and gemhunter!
As to cultivation : I´ve had the N. graessneri for 4 years now and it flowers for the first time now. I keep all the Notocacti in half shade and they get watered regularly in summer . The potting ground contains a bout 1/3 of standard cacti mix with peat.- So nothing really special I guess...??
