Blossfeldia liliputana f. crested

The crested shape of this plant has a fan shape very appreciated by collectors around the world as each crested plant is unique and always different from the others. In the normal form B. liliputana is a very small cactus that reaches 1-2 cm in diameter ( hence the name derives) and is generally solitary but can also tuft. Its dark green stem, devoid of ribs and spines, has a globose shape and is slightly depressed at the apex. In summer, during its flowering period at the apex of the stem, beautiful white or pink flowers bloom that reach 10-15 mm in diameter and sometimes cover the plant itself.
