Spring Colour

Spring Colour

This time of the year sees the sudden burst of life in the garden and greenhouse. My cacti have started to flower once more. Rebutia are a particular favourite of mine with their abundance of delicate flowers ranging from bright reds, pinks and yellow. They will continue to give a fine show throughout the summer months. This one is rebutia karuisiana.

Might I also recommend anything from the Gymnocalicium family? They have huge red and pink flowers, usually. They require a fair deal of care to get flowering, but they are worth the effort.

Indeed, so - I have one or two in my collection. Also the rather delicate sulcorebutias. I tend to buy them from Glenhirst Cactus Nursery
