Hidden Fero beauty

Post by cactushobbyman »

This doesn't happen very often with this many flowers. Over a week of flowering and still more buds to go. :)

That's quite a ring of flowers there! Very nice!
A cactus and succulent collector who especially likes Ariocarpus. …Though I have a bit of everything! Want some pictures? See my flickr! I also do art and such.

Nice to know that, I have many young Ferocactus herrerae, and a few F. wislizenii seddlings from some seeds I got on a swap, some got sick but I hope they survive. Both species are very similar but I think the flowers of your are mor reddish in color.
Do you know if they are self fertile?

I think they are, but I have seven now flowering. I had one flower and the others weren't, and still got many seed pods.
