Notocactus erinaceus (Cactus)

It is a globose cactus, slightly depressed at the apex, formed by numerous ribs, often wavy, strongly narrow and pronounced. The colour of the plant varies considerably from light green to darker green depending also on the period of the year and the exposure. It is, however, always strongly and pleasantly in contrast with the robust spikes in the shape of awl, curved and greyish. The real charm of N. erinaceus is manifested in spring, when from the woolly apex huge yellow flowers bloom. They have a reddish throat, so shiny as to seem almost artificial, with a wonderfully silky and shiny appearance!
