Description

Rebutia ‘Sunrise’—now often classified under Aylostera ‘Sunrise’—is a compact, attractive cactus hybrid of Aylostera heliosa × Aylostera pulvinosa ssp. albiflora. It forms small flattened‑spherical stems (~3 cm in diameter) densely clothed in short, appressed white or silvery spines, gradually forming tight clusters. In spring it produces a ring of funnel‑shaped flowers around the stem base in shades of pinkish‑white to orange‑red, lasting about ten days. It is prized for its reliable bloom, ease of cultivation, compact habit, and generous offset production, making it ideal for pots or rock gardens. Although not documented as having formal award status, it is widely popular among hobbyists.

Compact flattened‑globose stems densely covered in short white appressed spines, forming tight mounded clusters.
Spring-blooming funnel-shaped flowers in pinkish-white to orange-red, arranged in a striking ring around the stem base.
Vigorous offsetting habit; forms dense clumps enhancing bloom display and ease of propagation.
