I agree with Pp, lovely colour too.

Delightful colour Amy . . . almost like a Mesembryanthemum. :))

Thanks Sheila /Sheilar /TT ... where is Hywel ? ~~ I.ll have to shout louder ;o)

Lol. HYWEL .. where are you please ?
Amy is looking for you.. ;o)

Love the colour Amy....

Very nice, looks like a variety of mammillaria but I will await the experts opinion :o)

HELLOOOOOOO !! :o)))
I'm here :D

It's a type of Mammillaria - could be
M. backebergiana ...
It's very pretty

Thanks Motinot / Plantaholic it looks as though both you and the expert have agreed on a name ~~ Here you are Hywel LOL... have you been playing with Blodyn ? I shall put that name to it ... if you experts should change your minds please let me know ,thanks :o)

Of course! It was on the tip of your tongue, wasn't it Amy - you just couldn't say it, lol!

Oh Yes Sheila of course it was LOL... I mean what a mouthful ! BTW Sheila I had to google Fiddleheads ! I hadn't a clue what they were , you will know what I mean :o))

I'm not an expert. I only knew because I've got one lol

Well that's no surprise Hywel I shouldn't think there are very many that you haven't got are there , is yours in flower are they all the same colour ?

It's starting to flower now. Yes it's the same colour as yours.
There is a white variety of this species but I haven't got one.

:)))

Look at them flowers.. only ever had 1 cactus flower in 30 years :o((

I'm not a cacti person Mushy , our granddaughter use to collect them ,sometimes they made their way to us ,I'm afraid I just leave them to fend for themselves most of the time, we only have a couple of other ones ......
Thank you Hywel I haven't noticed a white one either !

lol :D I've just seen the name you put for it. It's Mammillaria - because the little tubercles are said to resemble nipples :o)

Oh Hywel !! stop laughing ! I'll go back and correct it now LOL.. clever clogs :o))

Glad you like it Homebird :o))

It's still lovely even after your booby!

LOL.. I like that Annella :o))

;O))

Gorgeous again Amy...

Thanks Sue :o)

Wow that is a pretty one Amy, so many flowers out together, you are doing something right...:)))

Fantastic! :) Looks like a toy!
