Description:
In nature, it grows on the Andes at altitudes between 2000 m. and 4000 m. above sea level, in flat and very arid zones. M. boliviana is a cactus that has dark green stems, with woolly and yellowish areoles. From these ones come out numerous, yellow and thin thorns that while the plant grows, become greyish. During the flowering period you can admire beautiful yellow, orange or pink flowers. Synonym: Cumulopuntia boliviana.

Plant care:
It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.
It prefers rather mild temperatures, however it still survives even at temperatures close to freezing if the soil is dry.
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.
The best soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
