In re-created prairies

tubular flowers with a dramatically contrasting yellow center

sporadic in hot summer climates

Hosta 'Halcyon' holds its color well

Notocactus floricomus Pinellia This unusual selection has flowers(aka: Parodia mammulosa) Notocactus floricomus has been an outstanding performing barrel cactus in our trials here in the humid, rainy, southeastern US. This native of Uruguay and adjacent Southern Argentina and Brazil, forms a 8" wide, solitary, well armed green barrel, topped, starting for us in mid May with clusters of bright yellow flowers. Good drainage and plenty of sun and air are the keys to success.
