Description:

It is a cactus with an intense green body. It has a spherical shape, when small, which tends to become cylindrical with growth, equipped with marked longitudinal ribs. It has oval areoles, from which dense long and very straight spines emerge; it is not difficult to distinguish some robust spines, surrounded by many other very thin spines. It is characterized by funnel-shaped inflorescences at the apex of the plant, formed by thin petals and arranged in several layers, sometimes each of a different shade, but generally tending to white.

Plant care:

It likes very bright places, however, avoid direct sunlight during the hottest hours of the day.

It prefers rather mild temperatures, however it still survives even at temperatures close to freezing if the soil is dry.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer, and suspend watering 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.
