Ariocarpus flower

This little guy measures less than 3cm across.
Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus v sladkovskyi  
I think it did a great job for such a small little plant.

Very well done. Mine is not looking that good. It is struggling with an odd scale that I have to keep rubbing off. I also have one grafted that throws many buds every week but never develops into a flower.

I have only 1 of these so I have collected the pollen and put it in the freezer.
Just in case someone might need some.

Nice work. If any of my ario's start to bud I will certainly be interested.

A very nice young sladkovskyi!
I can see a few juvenile tubercles.
The stunning flower color is the evidence of true sladkovskyi.

Is this what I think it is?

Brilliant quality photographs !!
