Description:

The name of the species comes from the Greek and literally means "multiple tubercles", in reference to the numerous protrusions from which this cactus is made. Of a beautiful bright light green, M. polythele develops a cylindrical shape that reaches even 40 cm in height, maintaining a diameter of a few centimeters. The variegated shape of this cactus presents the typical lighter areas in the exact points where the chlorophyll is absent: these characteristics will never be the same from one plant to another, therefore each specimen will be absolutely unique! At the base of the large conical tubercles grows a white fluff, as well as in the areoles at the apex of the protrusion, which in spring contrasts pleasantly with the small and delicate fuchsia-pink flowers that bloom corolla around the apex.

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.
