- The cactus genus Rebutia is often grown because of its flowers. Rebutia are known to be prolific bloomers with the flowers relatively large and prolific compared to the cactus itself. Growing this cactus poses some challenges. However, when done correctly, it offsets heavily forming a clump.

Fantastic video, thank you so much it Is very very useful. Just one thing, the name Rebutia comes from Latin, i am Italian and i can tell you that the correct pronunciation is rebuzia. In Latin "ti" becomes "z".
Oh thank you so much for sharing that information! Really helpful.
Unfortunately Latin is a "dead" language with many permutations. There are definitely more than one correct pronunciations
BRILLIANT Video and care tips and info on the AMAZING Rebutia Cacti, I ADORE them as they are wonderful bloomers and nice and compact, and you have a really AMAZING collection of Rebutia and so many stunning blooms on them all, thanks so much for sharing this wonderful and very informative video Ana, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER to Las Vegas for a blooming fantastic Thursday today XXXXX
I love your Rebutias Lyn! I look forward to your flowering Rebutias every year. 😃
You always wonder me with your flowering cactus, I love your collection and videos. Thank you. 🌵🥰
What a wonderful video!🎬🎬🎬 Everything was brilliant!🌞🌝🌞 Your explanations, video footage and editing.....such a joy to watch and learn from you!👩🏫👩🌾🦸♀️ Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Have a wonderful day!🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for your kind words, Amanda. I appreciate it. 😊 I learn from many of you as well. Cheers! 🌵☕️
I love this! Are you planning to do a series on different types of cactus? I found this video to be super helpful, I'll know to leave spent flowers on my rebutia next time. I had no idea seed pods take that long to form!
Thank you so much. This is the 3rd of this series. I also have a Spotlight on Echinopsis and Spotlight on Gymnocalycium. 🙂
@@CactusCaffeine thank you, Ana! I'll be sure to check out the other videos as well!
Hello! Love this video on rebutia! My friend just gotten rebutia albiflora and was just thinking of asking for offsets, but thankfully this video came on time before I kill another living ones! Just curious, I thought grafted plants are not possible to propagate by offsets anymore due to being grafted into one single plant?
I just love the colors of flowers on these cactus! It really is the best part of owning cacti! Flower season is the BEST! 😍. My peniocereus greggii is forming buds! I’m soooo excited!!!!🥳
Wow, that is exciting news on your peniocereus. Mine is still a seedling! Lol!
That cool thanks for making this video I like this video
Wow sis super pretty blooms 😍🤩 wala rin nag ugat s mga heliosa offsets ko, at ung degraft kong mother heliosa iiwan n yata ko hahaha goodbye heliosa. Bakit mga rebutia ko iilan na nga lang hindi pa mamulaklak, gymno lang tlga mlkas mamulaklak sakin, madali din ako mamatayan rebutia. Thanks for sharing this sis very informative at nakakainggit haha. 💚🌵
Ang gaganda pala ng flowers ng rebutia.
Another awesome video
Fabulous bloomers, very enjoyable vídeo😃❤️
does this translate to sulcorebutia as well? I've started collecting them, and they are by far my favorite.
I only have a handful of sulcorebutia so I can’t really make a general care instruction yet for it. But some classify sulcorebutia with Rebutia while some consider them as part of lobivia. The taxonomists can’t agree. 🥴 But I notice my sulcorebutia produce less but bigger flowers than rebutia.
So are sulcorebutia and rebutia interchangeable or are they different species?😅😅
@@ericmoore5394 sulcorebutia and rebutia are separate genera with many species in each.
@@chickenosm great thanks for replying
Las Rebutias son originarias de mi país, Argentina 🇦🇷
I think I finally found a Rebutia!! I know they kinda looks like Mammillaria but this one is very different and more of a lime green color. Im excited to see it bloom!!
wow those cactus flowers are awesome and some very good information
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing these cool tips on rebutia.
You have beautiful cactus collection dear, stay connected
Thanks for the video! When we should fertilize the cactus?
Beautiful flower colours, love it. Thank you.
atee thankyou soo much po pero why is my rebutia "strawberry" etiolating po hehe salamuchh🥰🥰
Etiolation is caused by lack of sunlight. But another reason that a cactus may grow in an unnatural form is over fertilization. Try to find out which one is yours.
@@CactusCaffeine sge po ate hehe thankyou po ate🥰🥰🥰
Good luck! 😉
How I wish I have those
I'm a fan of Rebutias because of your videos! In fact, I'm expecting a delivery today from Planet Desert with another rebutia. I wanted to feed my cacti but we had rain the other day and there's some drizzle expected later in the week. How long should I wait to feed them after the rain? I want to get those super blooms going! :) Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I really appreciate your videos!
Oh, what kind or Rebutia did you get? Just wait for your soil to dry out. Then you can add fertilizer on your next watering.
Ganda! Love from the Philippines
Really liked this vid. Request? Would you please make a vid on how to tell the difference between a Rebutia and a Mammillaria. If you're going cactus shopping, and you want one or the other, how can you distinguish between the two? Thanks for the vid Anna.
The flowers and a Mam is very distinctive. with its flowers. Plenty of photo's on the web showing flowers.
Las rebutias se distinguen por tener un "hundimiento" en la parte de arriba del cactus, eso no tienen las mamillarias.
Good evening ms.ana watching ur video ♥️♥️♥️
Wow Beautiful Rebutia Plants 😍😍🌵💚 Nice Sharing ... Love from India 🇮🇳
What a lovely cactus you have. Different varieties I love your garden. I will follow your video.
Thank you and good luck! 👍🏼😃
Awesome video, Ana 😊 Lots of nice information on Rebutia. The blooms on these never disappoint. Love the super blooms on some of yours, spectacular. Thank you for sharing with us as always, Ana. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜☕️
Congratulations on your first graft! Some take so many tries before they’re successful. You must have had a steady hand to have had the scion take the stock fast. Loved the video, as always and of course those gorgeous blooms are always to die for! ❤️🌺🌸🌼🌵💚
I need a steady hand to graft? Lol! It was more of luck for me. I wasn’t well prepared and my root stock is small. I recently tried a few more. We will see how they go. 🤞 I’m expecting these dragon fruit rootstocks to die when our summer starts.
@@CactusCaffeine most collectors here use Eriocereus jusbertii and Pereskiopsis ☺️
I was inspired to buy a rebutia cactus today. It is being shipped about 3 hours to me from the big city. It has a yellow flower and is sold as ***Massive cluster*** lol! So I'm expecting big things. Very cheap though.
Oh that’s exciting! “Massive cluster”, lol! I hope that really is what you get. 😉 In any case, Rebutia pups heavily. You will get a cluster in no time. 😃
Nice video,you really explain things well.I have about 30 rebutias that live on my window sill.🌵🌵
Thank you. You must really love Rebutia to have that many. ☺️ Can’t blame you because their flowers are really a show.
I’ve never seen anyone who grows these! I’ve grown them since I was a kid. My uncle’s old neighbor had some and he gave me seeds which I grew into beautiful flowering denizens of the earth.
That’s awesome! 😊
Thank you for including the names of the Rebutia. I am adding them to my wish list hoping I can find them in Australia :)
@Karen las rebutias son originarias de Argentina.
Hi Anna, great video, rebutias are my best flowering cacti. But i really want to ask u. I dont water them so much , so when i repotted them yesterday i found thta the soil is very dry also the roots. But the cactus itself looks mushy. Is that rotting or it is under watered?
Underwatered cactus can also feel soft. If it is rot, only the base will feel soft and if you press it, it feels like there is liquid or even hallow. If the base has turned brown, most likely it is rotting. But you said you haven’t been watering it so double check, it might just be thirsty.
Hello Anna I love all the flowers of the cactus today 😍
How long does each Rebutia flower stay open before it wilts or falls off?
It depends on the temperature. When my rebutias flowered in late winter, each flower opened and closed for 5 days. But now that our temperature here is in the low 90s, each flower lasts only for 2 days. But since one Rebutia can have many buds, you can have a display of flowers for a week or 2. 🙂
@@CactusCaffeine Thank you.
Thank you this is so helpful!
I’m glad you find it helpful. 😃 Cheers to your plants as well.
Gorgeous! I have a few of those. I’ve tried from seed but no luck yet. I did manage to root some babies from one I killed though!
I hope your seeds come up soon. But that’s great that you were able to root the babies with no problem.
I'm so glad you did this video 😊. Thank you Ana! I've been trying to do a lot of research but it's not easy. Then I run into so many different kinds I start getting confused and I need a break. This makes it so much easier for me to learn. I appreciate all the types as well with the names and flowers. So beautiful!
I’m glad you find this helpful. Yes, many Rebutia look alike without their flowers. So showing them with flowers I think is the best way. I had to wait for the day where I had most of my rebutias in flower to make this video. Thanks, Vicki!
Awesome 😍Love from India❣️💌
Namaste from Japan
Namaste🙏💌
Ok.. I think i have this cactus. Its small but it has 2 clumps. I thought it was a echinopsis , a notocactus, or a mammallaria...I still don't know 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Hi, I did like a lot of your videos. They helped me a lot. May I ask: I had some Rebutia. I saw some of them have Summer Dormancy instead Winter. So what do I do when the Summer comes: water them or leave them dry? Let me know, please. I appreciate.
th-cam.com/video/0opez8XQ3uE/w-d-xo.html
Here is a video I made about summer dormancy. I mentioned in this video that my Rebutia goes summer dormant. 😉
@@CactusCaffeine Thank you so much. Have a good day.
very nice
I found a small barrel cactus like those in Utah and I replanted them in a pot and they look like they’re starting to flower. Are all of those barrel varieties called rebutia?
Hmm... Barrels are usually Echinopsis or Ferocactus species. Rebutia are small and clumping. But that is exciting if yours is starting to produce flowers. You can ID it better once you see its flowers. 😃
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Ana!
Hi, I just bought a Rebutia Senilis I think? It may not be that Varr? It has one mother plant and 12 pups around it , in a 4 inch plastic pot. It looks very tight for all of the,m? Should I transplant them to a bigger pot? Maybe a 6 inch pot. I want to keep them together and not break them up.
To me, Rebutia looks better as a clump. That’s when you get a bouquet of flowers. I would keep them together in maybe a wider (but not deep) pot. Rebutia roots don’t go very deep. But if you want to propagate, you may break them apart as well.
@@CactusCaffeine thank you, I will move it to a wider pot and leave the pups with mom.
How do you ID a Rebutia Cactus? I have several baby cacti which I grew from seed (Mixed Seed Pack), and several cacti I purchased that are unidentified. Thank you for any advise. *HUGS* P.s I love your blooms! So beautiful.
Rebutias are hard to ID as there are so many new cultivars. The ones that I have an ID, it's because I bought them with tags. I also grew some from a mixed seed packs and those don't have ID's up to now. There are some Rebutia groups on Facebook. Those specific cactus groups are helpful in giving IDs.
@@CactusCaffeine thank you 😊
Se diferencian porque en su parte de arriba tienen un "hundimiento" característico.
Thanks Ana! You just told me what's up with my heliosa cuttings. I had one like yours and of course the dragon fruit stock failed. I kept the heliosa pieces and have had them trying to root for months!! They have flower buds!! But not one root!! Ok so now that I know I think it's time to graft!! Yours looks fine!! Good job!! Great informative video!! From Morris park in the Ozarks out to Las Vegas have a great evening Ana!!! And your Rebutias look spectacular!!!! Peace,Love,Plants!!!!✌💖🌵🌺🌴🌸🌲🌷💐🌿🌻🌹
Oh my, so I’m not the only one having a hard time rooting a heliosa! I tried 2 batches of pups but none rooted until each one shrunk like a prune. You know how dry our weather is so either they root quick or the air will suck all the water out of the cutting. 🤣 So I took my smallest columnar and grafted one. To my surprise, it stayed on! 😃 Amazing how yours still flowered even with no roots.
You have such a wide variety of colours. How do you get them? Do you buy the seeds or do you buy the plants?
For my rebutia, I buy them as grown plants. I have some that are seed grown but majority are already grown when I purchased them. 🙂
I have a cactus..i think its a rebutia but it could be a parodia. Idk...i gotta wait til next spring...
Lovely flowers and great information! Rebutia certainly are a fantastic cactus for flower power amongst a collection 👍😊🌸🌼🌵💮🌼🌵🌼🌺
Yes, they certainly are flower achiever! 🌼🌵🌸🌵
Do Rebutia pymaea grow well? I have one from seed and am hoping it will grow for me
It really depends on how you care for it. Generally, Rebutia don’t like too much water when they are dormant. In my experience, they suddenly rot.
@@CactusCaffeine Thank yo I put it into a 2 inch pot where it get some afternoon sun. Will water once a week?
I believe in gardening by moon signs-have better luck...
I seem to have good luck with blooming Rebutia on my windowsill. Living in MT, there's no way I can really give them a real cool rest, but enclosing them between the window pane and the curtain during the night seems to do the trick well enough for them to bloom for me. Your collection is wonderful, and I've learned so much from you! Thank you, Ana!
Thanks for sharing that window pane and curtain trick. It will be useful to many. 😃
Wow sana mag ka roon din ako nyan Ganda po Kasi nang flowers nya🌵🌵😍😊😊😍
Mahirap ba hanapin ang rebutia sa Philippines?
Opo at saka mahirap alagaan pag Hindi naka graft
👍👍👍😉🌈
Ok.. I think i have this cactus. Its small but it has 2 clumps. I thought it was a echinopsis , a notocactus, or a mammallaria...I still don't know 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
You can tell by the flowers
hi, for 4 / 5 Hours under sun light is too much?
I've had a very different experience with my Rebutia. I've got a pseudodeminuta and it has been very easy to root the offsets. It blooms in midsummer, but that might be because I can't give it a cool winter dormancy. It gets cool and dry conditions in fall and spring so it's operating on a very different kind of schedule.
That’s interesting how they respond to conditions despite it being not normal. It is good to know too that deminuta roots easily. Thanks for the info, Janet.
@@CactusCaffeine I was just looking at it today and spotted a very tiny flower bud starting. It likes to keep me guessing!
I think i found a Rebutia!! Im so excited!!!
They sell them on eBay. I bought some last year and they are fantastic. I have grown them since I was a kid and my uncle’s old neighbor gave me seeds from his and I grew some. They are amazing, beautiful and easy to get to flower.
@@patfromamboy my rebutia is weird. It. Looks like its shrinking...so i put it outside. Now its got 4 buds! I dont water it too much but ..its just weird!!
@@michellechapman8738 good job! I can send you cuttings from mine. They have babies that sprout from the main cactus.
이쁜 다육이들 잘 보고 가유
Love it
Thank you 😊 🌵☕️
BOO-TEE-FUL!
Thank you
