Description:

A very small and slow growing cactus. Its globular shape is very recognizable and particular, it kind of resembles a pineapple or a pine cone. The epidermis has a color, that varies from green to gray. The spines grow at the ends of the tubercles and are white to brown in color. In summer, the funnel-shaped white flowers sprout from the down of the apex and open up during the day. This small Obregonia reaches a maximum of 15 cm in width. It is a solitary cactus, that's why you will never find it clustered or with offsets around.

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 and only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce it 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.
