An initially globular cactus, which over time assumes a cylindrical shape, reaching a maximum of 15 cm in height and 10-15 cm in diameter. The apex of the stem is slightly depressed, covered with a white down. It has conical tubercles and downy areoles, from which white and thin radial spines, as well as central ones (from 2 to 5), curved downwards, of a white color with a dark tip, emerge. During the flowering period, it blooms at the apex with diurnal flowers, of a pale yellow color with a brownish or pinkish central stripe.

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.
