Even if I say so myself, what a beauty!

Hello Kevofski

First, let me welcome you to the forum. I guarantee that you are going to love it here. The people here are very knowledgable, kind, giving of their time AND, contrary to what you ordinarily find on the internet, unceasingly polite! We all share a common interest here, and it's like we're all members of the same family.

Wow!!! The flowers of IMG_20180529_135717-327x43 are truly something else. If you don't mind my asking, what part of the world are you in that you are just now starting to get flowers?

I live in Belgium, we have a very hot spring for the moment...
The white creamy one is a Gymnocalycium baldianum.

Thanks kevofski. I recently acquired a young G. baldianum but it has purple flowers (and only 3 of them). White seems unusual (I should have read from the beginning of the thread) but definitely spectacular! I hope mine puts on as good a show when it grows up. *Adds white-flowering G. baldianum to wish list*.

I've got a Lobivia arachnacantha, that has not yet flowered, and I hope mine will eventually produce flowers as pretty as this. Thank you very much for posting these pictures. I'm just fascinated. Now at least I know what they have the potential to look like.

Today it is the turn of the noto Ottonis. He is not completely open yet. It will be the weather. It's clouded. The echinopsis is ready. Would it be for this night? I'll stay awake at least.

This is one of my new ones, but I have no idea what kind this could be. A Mammillaria?
