Product Description

The Copiapoa superba is a striking cactus known for its globular shape and dense clustering growth habit. Native to the Atacama Desert in northern Chile, it is often grafted to enhance its growth. The plant features a bluish-green body with a prominent waxy coating, giving it a silvery appearance that protects it from intense sunlight. Its ribs are adorned with stiff, dark spines, creating a dramatic contrast with the smooth, waxy surface. In summer, it produces beautiful yellow flowers at its crown. Grafted clusters of this cactus often form impressive displays due to their resilience and unique appearance.
