Description:

It is a globular cactus, which tends to become cylindrical as it grows. Its dark green stem has rather narrow and marked longitudinal ribs, from which dense yellow-brown thorns emerge, arranged like spider legs; with the growth of the plant, the spines tend to almost completely envelop the stem, touching each other from one area to another. One of the strong points of this cactacea, in addition to the ease of cultivation and rapid growth, is undoubtedly its red and fuchsia giant funnel-shaped flowers, able to give liveliness to any environment!

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 5 °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.

A well draining soil is an optimal solution, for example a mixture of peat and sand 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.
