Description:

Echinocactus texensis is a robust solitary cactus (very rarely accestisce), also called "Candy cactus", that is "Cactus caramella", because of its red fruits that are used to produce a type of sweetener. Its green-greyish stem has numerous evident ribs, where rigid and curved radial spines and straight central thorns of pink-greyish color emerge. This plant is ideal for decorating your rocky gardens. The crested shape of the cactus presents the typical fan-shaped arrangement that makes each specimen absolutely unique, never identical to another and for this reason so much appreciated by collectors.

Plant care:

It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

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

The best option is a substrate suitable for cactaceae, as long as it is well draining.

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