Gymnocalycium Friederichii Flower

Gymnocalycium Friederichii Flower

It’s quite a mouthful to pronounce the name of this little flower, but it is accurate, it seems (jim-no-cal-LEE-see-um freed-er-EEK-ee-eye). I purchased the tiny barrel cactus with the big name that produces these flowers at a cactus and succulent show in California a few years ago. The parent barrel is no longer producing flowers, but it grew a satellite barrel that produced this one today. Click on the image to enlarge.
