I thought they had to be E. vivpara they are very nice clusters! Do you know the origin of the clone. I like look of it! Spiny, low and clustering. I must say it is one of the nicest I've seen!

They are E. vivipara, I have just always called them coryphantha because of an older book. The big clusters are 14in wide and 11in tall. I bought them from a nursery, but later found out LaMar grew them. I think he said the seed came from a Vegas mountain plant but some must of hybrid with others from his yard. The seed starts easy, so if you want I could send some if they produce any from the big plants.
