Weingartia steinbachii, called Steinbach's crown cactus, is a species of cactus in the genus Weingartia , native to Bolivia. [3] It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. [4]
The following subspecies are currently accepted: [3]
Rebutia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Cactaceae, native to Bolivia and Argentina. The limits of the genus have varied widely, depending on whether genera such as Aylostera and Weingartia are included or treated separately. As of December 2024, Plants of the World Online accepted only three species of Rebutia. A very large number of plants that have been treated in cultivation as species of Rebutia are now generally regarded as varieties, forms or synonyms of a much smaller number of species, or have been transferred to other genera. Plants treated as Rebutia are generally small, colorful cacti, globular in form, which freely produce flowers that are relatively large in relation to the body. They have no distinctive ribs, but do have regularly arranged small tubercles. They are considered fairly easy to grow and they may produce large quantities of seeds that germinate freely around the parent plant.
Weingartia is a genus in the family Cactaceae, with species native to Bolivia and Argentina. It was formerly included in Rebutia, but molecular phylogenetic evidence suggested that it was distinct from that genus. As of December 2024, it was treated as separate genus by Plants of the World Online, and recognized as an alternative generic name in the third edition of the CITES Cactaceae Checklist. It may also be treated as Rebutia subg. Weingartia.
Cleistocactus winteri is a succulent of the family Cactaceae. Its common name is the golden rat tail. Cleistocactus winteri subsp. colademono, as its synonym Cleistocactus colademononis, has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Parodia magnifica is a species of flowering plant in the family Cactaceae, native to southern Brazil. One of several species called ball cactus, it is also called balloon cactus. It grows to 7–15 cm (3–6 in) tall by 45 cm (18 in) broad, with heavily ribbed, spherical to columnar, spiny and hairy stems, bearing pale yellow flowers in summer. Its natural habitat is cool, dry temperate grassland at elevations of up to 800 m (2,600 ft). Populations are sparse and fragmented, and it has been designated as “Endangered” by the IUCN Red List.
Rebutia minuscula is a species of cactus from South America found in northern Argentina and Bolivia. It is the type species of the genus Rebutia. As its synonym Rebutia senilis it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Its cultivars 'Krainziana', 'Marsoneri' and 'Violaciflora' are also listed as having gained the Award of Garden Merit.
Coronilla valentina, the shrubby scorpion-vetch, scorpion vetch or bastard senna, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Coronilla of the legume family Fabaceae, native to the Mediterranean Basin, and introduced into Kenya and the United States. It is an evergreen shrub growing to 80 cm (31 in) tall and wide, with pea-like foliage and fragrant, brilliant yellow flowers in spring and summer, followed by slender pods. Linnaeus observed that the flowers, remarkably fragrant in the daytime, are almost scentless at night.
Lobivia backebergii is a species of flowering plant in the cactus family Cactaceae, native to eastern Bolivia and southern Peru.
Ferocactus fordii is a species of succulent plant in the family Cactaceae, commonly known as Ford's barrel cactus, endemic to the Baja California Peninsula of Mexico. It is spherical, growing to 50 cm (20 in) in diameter, with whitish-grey radial spines and solitary flowers of a deep rose pink, 4 cm (2 in) in diameter.
Aylostera fiebrigii, the orange crown cactus or flame crown, is a species of flowering plant in the cactus family that is native to exposed rocky plateaux in the Bolivean Andes, at altitudes of 2,100–4,000 m (6,900–13,100 ft) above sea level. It consists of a solitary ball some 15 cm (5.9 in) in diameter, covered in tubercles and silky hairs, with brilliant orange daisy-like flowers. In time these balls multiply to form mounds.
Matucana intertexta is a species of cactus in the genus Matucana, native to Peru. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Weingartia arenacea, the arenaceous crown cactus, is a species of cactus native to central Bolivia. It has been renamed Weingartia arenacea. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Weingartia canigueralii is a species of cactus in the genus Weingartia, native to Bolivia. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Weingartia mentosa, the crown cactus, is a species of cactus in the genus Weingartia, native to Bolivia. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Weingartia neocumingii, the Cuming crown cactus, is a species of cactus in the genus Weingartia, endemic to Bolivia. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Aylostera pygmaea, synonyms including Rebutia pygmaea, is a species of cactus in the genus Aylostera, native to Bolivia and northwest Argentina. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Pfeiffera monacantha, the one‑spined wickerware cactus, is a species of epiphytic cactus, native to Bolivia and northwest Argentina. As its synonym Rhipsalis monacantha it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Disocactus speciosus, the sun cactus, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cactaceae. It is native to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, and has been introduced to the Canary Islands. As its synonym Heliocereus speciosus it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Weingartia cintia is a small alpine cactus native to the high Andes of Bolivia. The plant was discovered by Karel Kníže in 1969 at an elevation of 4,000 m (13,000 ft) near Otavi, in Potosí Department, Bolivia. However, it was not formally described until 1996 by Jan Říha. The genus is named after the town of Cinti in Chuquisaca Department.
