Description:

The specific name derives from Walter Rausch, who discovered it in the early 1960s. It is a globular cactus of a light green color, which reaches a considerable size. It is characterized by long central hooked spines, very accentuated and robust, of a honey-yellow color, that sometimes fades towards brown, beautifully contrasting with the white down, that covers the apex. The radial spines are instead, as typical of all Parodies, thinner and adjacent to the body. During the flowering season, characteristic flowers with shiny and thin petals bloom, typically in shades of orange or pink-peach.

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.
