Title: Cactus, white flower
Post by: Hilary on July 30, 2019, 10:28:58 AM

This cactus is no longer with us
It flowered in  March 2017 and was in an eight centimeter pot.
i have no recollection of what happened to it.
Can anyone identify it please?

You probably know it's a Mamillaria, which is a large and fascinating genus. The species could be venusta but then there are many hybrids and I am far from an expert.
