Product Description

Copiapoa serpentisulcata is a slow-growing cactus native to northern Chile, known for its globular, dark green bodies. These bodies can grow up to 15 cm in diameter, often clustering to form groups. The surface features deep, snake-like grooves that give the cactus its name. It has sparse, radial spines that are yellowish or brown, measuring 1-2 cm in length. The cactus blooms with yellow flowers in the summer, which contrast beautifully against its darker skin.
