A cactus with a solitary habit, which over time clusters at the base. It has green globose stems, that with the growth become cylindrical, entirely covered with spines. The radial spines, which almost entirely cover the body of the plant, are small and thin, of an almost glassy white color, the central ones are longer, curved outwards and are of a brownish-yellow color, with the tips, that tend to darken, as they grow. During the flowering season, it blooms with small flowers, arranged at the apex in a ring, which are of a beautiful color, ranging from light to bright pink.

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.
