Wooow look at those fissuratus! Really lovely - how long have you had them? Really enjoyed this video - can't beat seeing someone else's pristine Ariocarpus plants living the good life.
I've seen hybrids S. disciformis X T. alonsoi, they look very much like Strombocactus esperanzae (somewhat longer tubercles than disciformis and magenta flowers, like alonsoi). Some authors actually think that Strombocactus disciformis ssp. esperanzae might be natural hybrid between Strombocactus disciformis and Turbinicarpus alonsoi.

I got them.when I lived in AZ 15 years ago. Bought lots if cactus and most did very well in the intense heat.
