Flowering Lophophora fricii

I don’t have many mature Lophophora fricii plants in my collection (but have quite a few seedling plants “in the works”). Last year one of my few adult L. fricii plants put out several of its characteristic large, striking pink flowers, reminding me why I need to grow more plants of this species ;-)

This particular Lophophora fricii plant was started from seed in the spring of 2002 and is, after a slow start (and some neglect), developing into a nice mature specimen.

I don’t have any locality information for this plant; it was started from seed before I went nerdy and started bothering about “details” like that ;-)
