Lobivia thionantha f. minuta

It is a very small-sized solitary cactus of a globular shape, that gets longer over time. The stem is green-gray with strong and long spines, slightly curved towards the plant. The spines are of a light color, which tend to darken at the apex. The flowers of the Lobivia are large and very showy, of almost all the colors of the rainbow: yellow, fuchsia, pink, red and purple.
