Product Description

The Echinocereus rigidissimus subs. rubispinus is an incredibly beautiful cylindrical cactus, known for its dense spines that range from deep red to purple-pink, creating a vibrant visual effect. This subspecies is admired for its white to light pink flowers, which bloom at the apex of the cactus during the spring. The spines are tightly arranged in rings, giving the plant a fuzzy appearance. Over time, it remains relatively compact but can grow into a taller columnar form. Native to arid regions, this drought-tolerant cactus is highly prized by collectors for its intense spine coloration and lovely blooms.
