Product Description

The Copiapoa griseoviolacea GRAFTED is a remarkable cactus species known for its distinctive grayish-violet hue. This species typically has a globular to slightly cylindrical shape, often forming clusters as it matures. The cactus is characterized by its ribbed surface and clusters of short, dark spines. The epidermis has a waxy coating, giving it a unique color that helps protect it from the harsh sun and arid conditions of its native Atacama Desert in Chile. In the growing season, Copiapoa griseoviolacea can produce small, vibrant yellow flowers that add a striking contrast to the plant’s muted tones. This species is particularly valued by collectors for its unique coloration and beautiful floral display.
