Turbinicarpus roseiflorus is belived to come from Mexico (exact place of discovery unknown). It is closely related to Turbinicarpus lophophoroides, but its spines are more numerous, Flower concolorous pink, opening less widely. However the exact identification of this plant is dubious. The plants sold under this name are probably of hybrid origin. Possibly between Turbinicarpus lophophoroides and one of the dark spined species previously included in Gymnocactus i.e. Turbinicarpus gielsdorfianus or Turbinicarpus viereckii.
Turbinicarpus roseiflorus is a small solitary or copiously branching cactus with variable spination and also variable amounts of wool in the areoles.
Stem: Dark green, subspherical up to 3 cm tall, 4 cm in diameter. Crown white-woolly.
Tubercles: Rhombic, prominent tubercles, forming anti-clockwise diagonal spirals.
Areoles: Round, with white wool, later becoming naked.

All seeds are fresh of this season and obtained from my personal collection.
