| These were flowering last week when it was warm... C. fiedleriana: C. dealbata: C. cinerea... the flower is having a difficult time escaping the spines. This is the first time it has flowered since it was just a tiny green dot in a seedling punnet in the 70's Cheers, CP. | |

| Love the cinerea. Short black spines plus an olive drab colouring just says "I am one badass cactus" to me. | |

| Really nice CP. I love all cacti from Chili. I especially love Copiapoa's when they're this mature. I with Lachy though, the cinerea is awesome. | |

| Nice CP! I love them all.
Over the last year I have been getting pretty interested in the genus Copiapoa I only have a few though.
What size is that C. cinerea? Looks fairly large? | |

| ooohh great, very nice cinerea! congratulation for that plant. here in Chile I have seen them in flower in habitat, but in "cultivation" the older cinerea that I have seen had just 10 years old.
my respects,
