Description:
It is a slow-growing cactus that clusters easily. In nature it can reach up to 25 cm in diameter, while cultivated in pots it remains compact. It has a dark green stem, covered by numerous cylindrical tubercles, about 1.5 cm long, from which bicolor spines emerge: the radial spines are thin and flexible, of a creamy white color, while the central oens are reddish, they are more rigid, curved at the tip. During the flowering season it produces campanulate inflorescences of a yellow-cream color with a pink throat.

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 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, 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.
