Dear Steve,

Sorry, but the name of your plant is wrong. This is Pygmaeocereus!

Yeah, I know that. My typing is at fault!

Steve,

A very nice shot. Just yesterday I also posted a Pygmaeocereus rowleyanus flowering in the Californian 'winter'.
Please have a look at the Pygmaeo-link and join.

Here is a link that might be useful: Pygmaeo

This has nothing to do with the beautiful flowers, but that name just sounds like a dinosaur - maybe a small one.

It looks kind of lobivia-like to me - are they related? I'm still having a hard time with this lumping/splitting of species - makes my head spin trying to get the whole naming thing straight.
