Description:
Small solitary cactus that does not grow over 10 cm in diameter, of a beautiful dark green, consisting of slightly marked ribs and arranged slightly in a spiral. It has very close and extremely woolly white areoles, which create a strong and pleasant contrast against the stem. From the areoles emerge short and straight radial spines, and of a brown-yellowish color, and darker central spines more robust and longer. Between spring and summer the charm of this plant will be amplified by its large flowers, truly peculiar: they have pale yellow petals, thin and extremely shiny like silk, sometimes adorned with light reddish shades on the tips, so beautiful and showy that they can bewitch even the less attentive eyes!

Plant care:
It likes very bright locations, but it can also stand direct sunlight in 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.
