Description:
It is a cactacea plant with a generally solitary habit which, over time, can cluster. The crested shape of this cactus is highly appreciated and sought after by cactus collectors from all over the world, as each specimen is different from the others, always unique with its extremely compact and spiny fan shape. It is also known as "Old lady pincushion", due to its long, fluff-like soines that densely cover the plant. Its stem has numerous conical tubercles, surrounded by a thick down. It blooms profusely in spring, generating many small fuchsia flowers, arranged in a ring on the upper part of the plant.

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.
