Description:

It’s a plant very sought after by collectors of the genre for its particular fan shape, which makes each specimen unique in its kind. In its normal form, it is a small cactus plant with a globose shape, erect and solitary. Its stem has several conoidal tubercles arranged transversely, with a white fluff between them and at the apex. From the areoles sprout thick whitish radial spines, straight and needle-like, star-shaped, and central spines much more robust and slightly curved, similar to small black horns, from which it takes the name 'C. cornifera'. During the flowering period you can admire large and beautiful bright yellow flowers.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 5 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately and only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce it to once every two months in autumn and to suspend it completely in winter.

The best soil is a well draining one, for example formed by a mix of peat and pumice so that water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
