Pediocactus simpsonii var. minor


These Pedios are wild... the flowers have green throats. I tried to pollinate them today with a paint brush. Between two plants there were only three flowers open, so even if there are seeds there won't be many from the greenish flowers. The flowers are sort of translucent looking and look yellow from a distance. Up close they look sort of white, pink yellow and green all at once.
