| Welcome QR Had pics 1 & 2 and can't remember its name. The cactus pics 2 & 3 is it a notocactus?? The purple one pics 5 & 6 is an Aoenium and is summer dormant it will look a little like its dying but don't push too much water into it. Just a drink everynow and then. Pics 7 & 8 umm crassula maybe Pics 9 & 10 ???? not sure. Where's CP when you need him, he will know Pic 11 Sedum Pic 12 Jellybeans Pic 13 Aloe juvenna Edit:Oops forgot about the mix..........I personally don't use perlite in anything. I use a cheap potting mix as it is usually a lot more open and very coarse sand about 70/30. As long as it drains well you can use what you like and a lot experiment to get what suits them. | |

| It looks a bit like a Rebutia to me. Although I must confess that it doesn't look too healthy... | |

| Its a former member of the genus Aylostera, which is now included in Rebutia. i can't offer much more than that but heres a link with the species and their new classification; http://www.desert-tropicals.com/Plants/Cactaceae/Aylostera.html | |

| I'm pretty certain that I have the same plant at home... this seems to be a cactus that is often cultivated and sold at weekend markets. If I'm right, you'll probably get orange-red buds yielding yellow flowers. | |

| ^ yeah i see it at weekend markets on a fairly frequent basis.the flowers should be something along the lines of this if me n Lachy are thinking of the same plant: http://www.mytho-fleurs.com/images/fleurs_tropicales_2/aylostera.JPG
but i agree with Lachy- sorry to say it QR but your plant does not appear to be in the best of health. | |

| I agree with Lewis and Lachy... Rebutia (Aylostera) fabrisii var. aureiflora is the likely little guy. CP | |
