So, you like a cactus with a mohawk huh? One that can get in the pit and mosh? Meet  Turbinicarpus Pseudopectinatus Crest.

mammillaria wildii f. cristata

Some mammillarias, i think the crested one might be Red Cap. Bottom is M. rodantha. The other i'm not so sure, possibly halbingeri. How magnificently rotund he is, though!

So I've had this eve's needle crest for ages and one year (a while ago), the plant just scared up. I have no idea what caused it or how to fix it, and I can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere online. The plant's still alive though and today I noticed it's shooting up a little guy. If anyone knows what these plants ideally need in terms of care, advice is much appreciated. It's the only plant I have that I can't seem to figure out :/
