First gymno bloom for 2007

This variety of Gymnocalycium damsii is such a dependable and reliable bloomer. It propagates very easily also, so I have a bunch of small plants that I don't know what to do with, and it keeps on making more.

This is a 2002 offset that is quick on the draw this year. There are a few others budding up, so I should have no shortage of flowers for this season. Hopefully my large plant will put on a good show with multiple blooms.
