Lobivia?

Post by MrXeric »

This is neither my plant or my pictures.

Someone on reddit lost the label and no longer remembers what this plant is.

The owner thinks it may be Lobivia tiegeliana or Sulcorebutia santiaginensis. I have doubts on either, but I am leaning towards Lobivia?

Looks like grown in open air all year round, very natural habitus. 👍
L. schieliana has also more dense spined var albescens, maybe this is just proper name.
