Gunnar Hatletveit from Norway sent us following letter:

"I have about 400 different catci in my collection, most of them raised from seed from Succseed. I keep them in my greenhouse all year, in winter at a temperature about 5-6 C". New updated photos - all grown from SuccSeeds seed!


 

Lobivia haematantha v. amblayensis JL 310

A small, with age cylindrical species with large flowers, from yellow to orange-red. Easy from seed. Like a cool winter rest.

Sulcorebutia mentosa

A very variable species from Bolivia with spines from darkest black to red and yellow (flavissima). Easy to grow from seed. Will flower in 2-3 years with magenta petals.

Notocactus rutilans

Classical species found in many collections. The fantastic soft pink flowers with yellow throat is something extra! Very easy from seed.

Parodia malayana WR 156  

Tiny body with short soft spines in white and brown. Flowers appear on very small plants. Can be a bit tricky from seed, but only the two first years when the seedlings are small.

 

Mammillaria guelzowiana

Can it be better? Long dense wool, red hooked spines and gorgous, large magenta flowers? Everybody should have it!

Rebutia pygmaea v. orurensis
KK 972
 

Free flowering as all the 'pygmaeas'. Like a cold winter rest and absolutely no water. Flower like mad in the spring!

Rebutia heliosa v. solisioides RH 261

R. heliosa is a fantastic variable species from southern Bolivia. Here is one of the forms. They can form nice clusters with age, filling a 10 cm pot in a few years.
