" The Evening Star "

Ahh.. I just happen to walk right by this one this evening and was pleasantly surprised, I was just giving them a splash of water when I looked down and she was looking at me saying, thanks now I'm all wet. I thought, it was just a splash.
I really don't even know the name of this one but she is a beauty. Can someone help with the name game here plz.

Greg I believe your plant is Gymnocalycium monvillei ssp. horridispinum. Got a couple that just finished blooming here. Beautiful plant and bloom.

Greg My biggest one is about 6 inches across and 7 or 8 inches high. This is it in a 6 inch pot so maybe it's a little bigger than I thought. Has a beautiful lavender pink bloom. The picture doesn't do it justice. Not sure how much larger it will get.

Bob, Well yours look very nice also, these barrel type cactus always add to the garden and give it a nice desert accent. The ones arounfd it are impressive too.
