Default Gymnocalycium

These are quite prolific when it comes to summer flowers. This is the same genus that you see grafted and are usually bright yellows and oranges and reds. These are also know as "var friedrichii". They take on a nice rich mahogany color from the sun. In the winter they are more green. The other Gymno in the foreground has an off white flower and is also in flower most of the summer.
