Plant Bio
Cacti are great plants for busy people who want something to sit on a sunny windowsill, but don’t want to spend too much time looking after them.This beautifully rounded, glossy green cactus has distinct deep ribs running down the plant, with clutches of golden yellow radial spines protruding out. Native to Mexico this cactus in it’s natural habitat can grow to a large plant with funnel shaped yellow flowers from mid-summer but over here it is unlikely to flower, and really it is an attactive plant just as it is.
الضوء
This cactus needs plenty of bright, indirect light, with an occasional dose of sun – but avoid harsh sunlight as this may scorch the plant if it has not been acclimatised.
