Description:

M. albicans is a magnificent globe-shaped cactaceae that with growth tends to become cylindrical. It expands branching and creating new clusters. Its stem has a light green color where we find numerous tubercles, covered by thick thorns. In fact, from the woolly areoles of yellowish white colour, radial and central thorns grow. The radial thorns are thin, of white colour and the central ones are more robust and less numerous, of pale brown colour that with the passage of time becomes dark. The flowering period is summer, from June to August and we can admire , at the apex of the plant, beautiful pink flowers with central fuchsia veins.

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 5 °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 soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.

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