Description:
The variegated shape of this cactus has typical yellow zones in the exact points where the chlorophyll is absent, generating unique examples, never exactly equal to others and for this reason it is extremely sought after by collectors. It’s a solitary cactus, which can also form tufts at the base while growing. The globose stem, of green-bluish colour, has slightly tuberculate ribs equipped with small round areoles, well spaced between them. It is almost totally spineless, the only ones are yellow and very thin. In spring it generates pink or white funnel-shaped flowers.

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 8 °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 the plant once a week in spring and summer and suspend watering completely in winter.
A medium porous substrate, consisting of soil mixed with sand, which makes it well draining. is an optimal solution.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
