Hello feliksi and welcome!
This plant is japanese but unfortunately it didn't flower this year...
we are sorry but we can't help you about gymno cv sources, but is it possible in czech republic thay have something

Tempaimaru is simply Japanese name of spegazzinii, not special name of a cultivar.
It seems the tempeimaru on the photo has strong short spines and is not a normal tempeimaru.
I assume it should be add a cultivar name in front of tempeimaru something like " Tan kyou toge tempeimaru".

Spegazzinii v loricatun has short spines.
I am not sure original location but seeds came from somewhere in Europe and I sowed in 2003.
The current plant diameter is around 13 cm.

Thanks Frank for your reply, in facts we didn't know the exact name for that plant...
Your plant looks very nice, compliments!
