Gymnocalycium stenopleurium

Beautiful flowers! I love when cacti flower!

Me too. I'm starting to get a bit of a collection going.

They're very easy to grow, also. Here in San Diego so many people have taken their lawns out an are putting succulents and cacti. This horrible drought here is so extreme you can't imagine. 3 1/2 inches (88 mm) of rain is all we had all last rainy season. We hope and pray for rain this coming rainy season!

Usually we dread more rain but this year we have been glad of it.
