So this is more on the purple side of the pink-purple spectrum.

The one I posted? If so, I honestly don't know. They have been popping up at some nurseries around here and I really like them. They don't have full names though, so I really don't know.

I think you've created a monster with this category. The number, quality and extraordinary beauty of all the photos is overwhelming! My eyes are crossing and my head is spinning! (Maja, I bet you're going to make some comment about that!)

P.S. You win the bet.

This will be an interesting contest because so far virtually every entry is a well composed shot. Many times there are entries that have a beautiful plant but the picture itself isn't as good as it could be so it easy to eliminate from consideration. Not this time!

Maja, I was almost certain you'd have a "smilie" with a spinning head! Guess I thought wrong...

I'm sorry. I can make that up.

Did you meant this?

That is great, Maja. Thank you for my morning laugh. Where do you get all those smilies?

Maybe Maja grows all kinds of odd smileys in her back yard?...

BTW: great selection of entries so far. It payed off to make the emes of the contest a little wider once in a while (but maybe not all of the times because this might get boring too then?)

another possibility for a pink flower

Maybe I do, maybe I don't. I don't want to tell.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE Tell us

Right. I tell you and them "lokal police" come to take them away because they think it's "a pot" Ask Bruce, they do that.

This Turbinicarpus alonsoi of mine has flowered a few times already this year, really enjoying our latest heatwave.
