These were both sold as 'Rose Quartz' but look quite different.

Its a hybrid. Depending on gene mixing, traits like sharp of round flower petals, stamen and pistils, as well as color, , and spination may vary.

I have 2 regular(probably) chamacerei, but one is thinner and has darker spines than the other. The smaller one is about to bloom, so well see if its true or a hybrid.

yep, it seems like a lot of cactus get thrown into that 'Rose Quartz' group. I have one too and it isn't exactly like any of them but close enough.

Just another ‘Rose Quartz’ to show how different they look. I feel like mine looks more like a Lobivia.

It’s actually just been changed to Echinopsis Chamaecereus ‘Rose Quartz’. The past years they were tagged Chamaelobivia ‘Rose Quartz’, and a couple weeks ago the new id tags say Echinopsis Chamaecereus ‘Rose Quartz’.

New classification system.They are genetically compatible with echinopsis, trichocereus, lobivia, heliocereus, Soehrensia?, pseudolobivia and probably others.

Think the last one is the dutch nursery rose quartz- the spiniation matches.
