Lophophora flower fest

Several of my plants are flowering right now, including many of the large undetermined Lophophora plants I bought earlier this spring. The plants were sold as Lophophora williamsii but body morphology and flower color suggest that many of them are actually Lophophora diffusa. Even though they flower, it is still difficult to determine the species of some of the plants conclusively, so I suspect them to be of hybrid origin. A handful of flower photos are included below.

  2. Love the flowers! Love the little tufts! Flowers are lovely, but cactus flowers are something more. Let the words be the thing, no more is needed. (Just borrowing an idea from N. Scott Momaday about language.)
