Product Description

Ariocarpus retusus form longituberosus is a rare and highly sought-after cactus known for its distinctive, tuberculate form and unique appearance. Unlike typical cacti, this species lacks spines and instead features fleshy, triangular tubercules that are elongated in this form, creating a striking geometric pattern. The tubercules are a muted green or grayish-green, blending seamlessly into the arid environments it calls home. In autumn, it produces stunning white to pinkish flowers that emerge from the center of the plant, offering a beautiful contrast to its rugged form. Ariocarpus retusus is prized among collectors for its slow growth and unique beauty.
