Description:

The variegated shape of this cactus presents yellowish shades in some points of the epidermis where there is a lack of chlorophyll, stains and shades that will never be the same in plants and will make each of them unique in its kind. In the normal form E. oxygona is a globe-shaped cactus that over time becomes cylindrical. Its green stem has tuberculate ribs above which are placed its radial and central spines. The former are numerous whitish with brown tips, while the central ones are less numerous and more robust with darker tips. In spring at the apex of the stem bloom beautiful funnel-shaped flowers of large size and pink color.

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 10 °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.

The best option is a substrate suitable for cactaceae, as long as it is well draining.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
