Description:
Cactacea typical of the genus Tephrocactus, characterized by contiguous segments that grow on each other giving rise to pleasant twisted bushes. The stem, of a delicate opaque dark green, is adorned by roundish little marked tubercles, from which sprout very long spines of more than 5-6 cm, pinstriped grey, which tend to face upwards with curved trend (hence the name of the species) and twisted, like a kind of rigid tangle that gives the cactus a sinuosity and a dynamism absolutely unique!

Plant care:
It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 5 °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.
The best option is a well-draining and porous soil, even better if further enriched with 50% of inert materials such as pumice or lapilli.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
