    Sembrerebbe una Mammillaria gracilis texensis or Mammillaria vetula

    I agree on Mammillaria gracilis texensis cv Arizona snowflake. It's one of those poor plants that have been dyed red as a sales gimmick and now it is growing out its natural white

    Oh my! It was the contrast between red and white that really puzzled me. That's a fascinating (almost forensic) explanation. Thanks!

      Amazing what some sellers will do to increase sales. There's quite a bit of chemically-induced variegation around that is also temporary. My worst are the people who stick fake dried flowers into cacti
