Description:
In its variegated shape, F. gracilis shows some particular characteristics related to its variegation. In fact, every variegated exemplar is unique and you will never find two matching ones. It has a dark green globose stem, characterised by tuberculate ribs and woolly, white, areoles from which emerge radial and central spines. The first, are yellow and long, while the central ones are red, robust and hooked. During the flowering period, in spring-summer, it gives us some beautiful funnel-shaped red flowers.

Plant care:
It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sun rays, especially during the hottest hours of the day, as long as they might burn the leaves.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 6 °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 one is a very well-draining soil specific for cacti.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
