Notocactus scopa (Cactus)

Also known as Parodia scopa, it is a cactacea plant, which is highly appreciated by cactus lovers, for its showy and numerous purplish red spines, that contrast with the even more numerous thin white ones. The dark green stem is globular, which over time can take on a columnar shape. Around the slightly concave apex, numerous yellow funnel-shaped flowers bloom in summer.
