Description:

Also called "Rainbow cactus", because with the prolonged exposure to the direct sun, it takes on shades, ranging from pink to red or purple. It is a cactus with a crested shape, which makes each specimen unique in its kind and therefore highly sought after by green collectors. It has a green stem with tubercles, from which combed and rigid spines emerge, hence the name 'rigidissimus'. It is a cactus that is difficult to cultivate and for this reason it is often found grafted onto other plants.

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.
