Rebutia Flavistyla
I know the mommy.
I know the daddy.
Therefore I should know the children.
The parents where both Rebutia Flavistyla, and a paint brush was involved
This is their first flowering, and I’m wondering did mommy have an affair ?
Spot the odd ones out.

Anyone got any ideas what the are.

Just goes to show how ultra careful you need to be when setting your own seed not to let the bees have a helping hand at the same time. Bring the plants indoors before they open the flowers. Means you might enjoy them more too.
