Description:

It is a small-sized rare cactus of a monstrous shape, that makes each specimen unique and therefore highly sought after by green collectors. It has a globular, cylindrical and spiral shape, from which it takes the name of ‘spiralis’. The light green stem has downy white areoles and irregular ribs. The sharp and flexible spines vary in color from white to yellow to red. It produces small, light yellow flowers. One of the main characteristics of this plant is that the body "splits", however, this cannot be defined as a defect, as it allows the plant to form original, unique and particular shapes.

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.
