Gymnocalycium denudatum

Globose cactus, slightly flattened at the apex, which does grow over 15 cm in diameter. It immediately cathes the eye for its beautiful deep shiny green body, with rounded but not very marked ribs. The thorns are sparse and whitish, rather thin and curved towards the stem as if to wrap it in a way similar to the legs of a spider, a characteristic that has given it the common name of "spider cactus". Between spring and summer you will be amazed when large flowers will blossom at the apex, extremely delicate and elegant, with colours between white and pink.
