Chris ,Sorry - but your Lobivia marsonerii is wrong named ....It should be have a dark hymen ...your plant looks like a hybrid Hans
No problem !I grow Lobivia,Rebutia + Aylostera since more than 30 years ....Walter Rausch ,Ernst Markus,Willi Gertel,Rainer Wahl,Wolfgang Krahn are good friends of me I have visit the north of Argentina several times and it was possibly for me to see the most Lobivia in her habitats .From Lob. marsonerii exist two types :L. marsonerii L. marsonerii var. iridescensNice to see your Acanthocalycium aurantiacum - I know it from the typ locality Hans

Bought it (seeds)as marsonerii subsp. grandiflora from our famous Belgian nursery. I think you must know the name " Gebroeders Deherdt " ?
Chris ,Do you know Mats Nilson ( now Winberg ) from Sweden ?He has a good nursery and sells also seedsHans

Many years ago I ordered some seeds overthere ....I have still many cacti with the "MW" -abbreviation on the back of the label.....But thanks for the information anyway !
The Cacti world is also small !I know Mats from earlier times - we made our travels in similar times and swapped often informations .Please look on his website -there are pictures of L.marsoneriiHans
Some of the smaller Mammillaria's are flowering here ... Also M. herrerae .
