Weingartia
'' Weingartia'' is a genus in the family Cactus, Cactaceae, with species native to Bolivia and Argentina. It was formerly included in ''Rebutia'', but Molecular phylogenetics, molecular phylogenetic evidence suggested that it was distinct from that genus. , it was treated as separate genus by Plants of the World Online, and recognized as an alternative generic name in the third edition of the ''CITES Cactaceae Checklist''. It may also be treated as ''Rebutia'' subg. ''Weingartia''. Description Plants usually solitary. Stems globose to oblong, to 20 cm high and 15 cm, rarely 30 cm in diameter, fresh green. Ribs 12 – 18, spiraling, forming distinct tubercles. Areoles on the tubercle in excentric position, sunken in its higher part. Spines more robust and thick, 7 – 35 in one areole, radial spines 1 – 3 cm long, central spines 3 – 4, to 5 cm long. Flowers borne near the stem tips, one areole can produce up to 3 flowers, golden yellow to orange to r ...

Rebutia Cintia Pm
''Rebutia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Cactaceae, native to Bolivia and Argentina. The limits of the genus have varied widely, depending on whether genera such as ''Aylostera'' and ''Weingartia'' are included or treated separately. , Plants of the World Online accepted only three species of ''Rebutia''. A very large number of plants that have been treated in cultivation as species of ''Rebutia'' are now generally regarded as varieties, forms or synonyms of a much smaller number of species, or have been transferred to other genera. Plants treated as ''Rebutia'' are generally small, colorful cacti, globular in form, which freely produce flowers that are relatively large in relation to the body. They have no distinctive ribs, but do have regularly arranged small tubercles. They are considered fairly easy to grow and they may produce large quantities of seeds that germinate freely around the parent plant. Taxonomy The genus was designated in 1895 by Karl Moritz Schu ...
