Description

The name “grandiflora” was applied to plants which had larger flowers with longer flower-tubes. However this is so variable, and plants which have “grandiflora” flowers can have smaller flowers in future years. Plants grown here are from original “grandiflora” stock.

The species R. minuscula was the original type species of the genus Rebutia and has been in cultivation a very long time (described in 1895). The wild plants in their original habitat have not been relocated for many years but the species is common in cultivation.
