Description:
Generally it is a solitary cactus, which can occasionally cluster at the base. It has a globular stem, depressed at the apex, of a light green or bluish-green color, which under the intense sun may take on brownish colors. It is a fairly compact cactaceae, it does not exceed 10 cm in height and 5-6 cm in diameter. On the flattened ribs, little noticeable tubercles are formed with downy areoles, from which sturdy and rigid brownish spines (with age they become gray), slightly curved, emerge - a characteristic that makes this species highly sought after by cactus collectors. In summer, it blooms with funnel-shaped white flowers with a pink throat.

Plant care:
It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 7 °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 soil is a well draining one, for example formed by a mixture of peat and pumice so that the water does not stagnate.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
