Gymnocalycium bruchii



This is part of an old plant that won the trophy for best cactus in the junior section of the local NCSS show in 1979. I have struggled to maintain a decent clump as it seems to keep dying back from the middle and is particularly prone to wretched mealy bug. I suspect that I will break up the remains of this clump and start again with a number of small heads.
