Description:

It is a small-sized cactus plant, that, over time, forms small colonies. It has a rounded shaped stem, slightly concave at the apex, of a dark green color, that can vary to bright purple with exposure to the intense sun or in dry cold conditions. The few spines, that grow on the ribs of the stem are thin, slightly curved and of a brownish yellow color. Flowering occurs in spring and generates huge flowers, that overhang the plant like an umbrella, the almost transparent petals have a glossy yellow color.

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.
