Product Description

Copiapoa columna-alba x griseoviolacea is a hybrid cactus derived from the union of Copiapoa columna-alba and Copiapoa griseoviolacea, both native to the coastal deserts of northern Chile. This plant typically forms erect, columnar stems that can reach up to 20 cm in height and 8 cm in diameter. The stems are a bluish-grey color with a powdery coating, featuring pronounced ribs with areoles that bear short, dark spines. The overall appearance is striking due to its combination of height and unique coloration. In summer, it produces small, funnel-shaped yellow flowers, adding to its ornamental appeal. This hybrid is well-regarded for its resilience in arid conditions and unique structural beauty.
