Description:

Very peculiar cactus, consisting of several segments that grow on top of each other and tend to branch out; they detach easily, but just as easily they are able to root to the ground, generating a sort of opaque dark green carpet that does not exceed 10 cm in height. Each cladode (segment) has stiff and extremely pointed spines, white and generally with flat margins. Its overall appearance is even more showy between late spring and early summer, when huge flowers in shades of yellow and orange bloom.

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.
