Tephrocactus darwinii (Cactus)

It is a cactus with ovoid olive-green stems, characterized by hard and sharp spines that emerge from the white and circular areoles. Its development takes place by "shovels": in fact from each top a new branch sprouts, usually in the shape of a round club. It tends to compose low bushes and spreads easily (you only need to cut a small piece and lay it on the soil). It produces orange flowers characterized by numerous stamens and a large stigma.
