Mammillaria parkinsonii
Mammillaria is a large genus (one of the largest in the whole Cactus Family), and many of the species are found in Mexico. This is true of Mammillaria parkinsonii, which occurs in the east-central part of the country. Its heads divide as it grows, making a many-headed clump in time. The rings of wool around the center of each head are part of its charm.

Mammillaria rhodantha
This little short-cylindrical cactus comes from south-central Mexico. Its spines start out reddish-brown, but soon fade to white. When it flowers, its bright magenta blossoms really call attention to it. The flowers come in a ring, but the ones on the south side open first.

Mammillaria compressa
Mammillaria is a very large genus in the Cactus Family, with many species sporting wonderful spines. Mammillaria compressa has a big distribution in east-central and northeastern Mexico, but the form pictured has especially long spines. The pinkish-red flowers come in a ring around the plant’s growing point, as is often seen in the genus.

Can’t stop buying new plants. Mammillaria plumosa and an unknown cactus respectively. Rain season is just starting here in Brazil, but I’ll manage them at my terrace so they’ll receive the best brightness I can provide as well as the best evaporation. Cacti usually are way more resistant than other succulents but somehow rainwater is always a blessing.
More updates on them soon!

Anyone have an ID on this? Armed like a Mammillaria elongata but with fishhook spines like M. bombycina. Large pink blooms.
