Description:
In Spanish it is called "Biznaga de espinas variables" - "Plant with variable spines", which explains the bizarre bearing of the spines, since each of them has different lengths. The green stem is semi-cylindrical and branches easily. The funnel-shaped red flowers are diurnal. M. varieaculeata naturally grows in tropical forests.

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.
