Description:

The crested shape of this cactaceae has the typical fan arrangement that is rather wide, compact and flattened at the apex. Each plant will never take the exact shape of the others, that’s why they are absolutely unique and therefore highly sought after by lovers of cactaceas! In its normal form it is a globose and usually solitary cactus, with tonalities that vary from reddish to bluish-green. G. quehlianum’s particular feature is having the most flat stem among all Gymnocalycium. It has numerous tubercles and multiple areoles close to each other, from which come out small yellowish thorns.

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.
