Description:

Parodia chysacanthion, also known as “golden powder puff”. It is a green, globular to columnar cactus, with a flattened apex, that can reach up to 10 cm in diameter. It is completely covered with long, golden, needle-like, dense, straight spines, which tend to thicken and point upwards, as they grow closer to the apex, giving the cactus a resemblance to a golden pillow, also thanks to its white down. This plant becomes even more breathtaking in spring, when the yellow of its flowers blends perfectly with the gold color of the entire cactus.

Plant care:

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

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

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

A soil suitable for cacti is an optimal solution, even better if further mixed with pumice or lapilli.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
