Product Description

Ariocarpus retusus ‘Cauliflower’ is a unique and slow-growing cactus known for its striking appearance. Its thick, tuberculate leaves form rosettes that resemble cauliflower heads, with a rounded, almost sculptural quality. This rare species lacks spines, instead showcasing pale green to grayish tubercles that can grow quite large. During blooming, it produces showy white or pink flowers that contrast beautifully with its rough, textured body. Native to the arid regions of Mexico, Ariocarpus retusus is prized by collectors for its unusual form and slow growth, making it a distinctive addition to any cactus collection.
