Product Description

The Copiapoa cinerea TALTAL grey form is an exquisite cactus known for its distinctive grayish hue, which is more pronounced in this form. This cactus has a globular to slightly cylindrical shape, with a surface often covered in a waxy, glaucous coating that helps protect it from the harsh sun and arid conditions of its native Atacama Desert in Chile. The ribs of this species are adorned with clusters of short, dark spines. The Copiapoa cinerea TALTAL sometimes produces small, yellow flowers that bloom at the top, providing a vibrant contrast to its muted gray tones. This form is particularly prized by collectors for its unique coloration and striking appearance.
