Description:

Beautiful cactus which owes its name to the American botanist Charles Wright. It has a stem with a globular shape that can become cylindrical with growth, with tubercles of an intense dark green. The body of the plant is almost completely hidden by long and thin white radial spines, arranged in a pattern to wrap around the cactus. Between them are the long brownish central spines, facing outwards and hooked. At its apex, its large flowers of an extremely bright purple are arranged as a corolla, which give the cactaceae a touch of color and liveliness, perfect for adorning your spaces.

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.
