I could be wrong but is kind of looks like a picture of a type of Mammillaria I just saw in one of my books.

I have one that looks like yours angelblossom, and when I was trying to id it....Mammillaria is what I came up for mine also....mine looks to be the same size as yours, so I'm hoping mine might bloom soon, or at least I know what I have to look forward to.

I agree, it's a Mamm! Here's a place to wade through and find your species:

Angelblossom...I got half way through the list starting from the bottom, so far I have 3 possibilities for mine...So this may be alot harder then we would think to pin point the exact one..in your case the flowers will help you, but I noticed in some of the pictures that the flowers looked different for the same variety...that seems strange, but maybe it is caused by the growing conditions and care????

Pretty cool list tho HUH?? I have another cactus in my arrangement that has a bud I'll post a pic when it blooms Hopefully it will be easier to narrow down to the exact cactus ![[Big Grin]](im/biggrin.gif) * * * * Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, Faith looks up! http://photobucket.com/albums/e374/2thtek/
