Very nice!
There are many meanings for the word pico in Spanish, but i think in this case one spine would cover it.

Ahh , thanks Darryl : pico is more like birds beak and usually not a cactus spine, - I should start learning some spanish!
And thanks for all the nice comments, guys.

You're welcome, Jens! No problem!
What have you done that yours has flowers and mine not?
I can't understand the nature anymore.
Thanks for your beautiful pictures!

Hello Ralf, one of the two clones of W. schmollii you gave me flowers and one doesn´t (the smaller one).

Compared with the W. tamaulipensis the schmolliis are really floppy.
Here is another picture of the blooming rubber plant.
