Product Description

The Eriosyce aspillageae is a small, globular to slightly cylindrical cactus endemic to northern Chile. Its dark green body features prominent, well-defined ribs adorned with clusters of short, curved spines, creating a rugged yet symmetrical appearance. The cactus often forms solitary stems but may occasionally produce offsets. Its flowers, which bloom at the apex, are tubular and range from delicate pink to vibrant magenta, adding a stunning contrast to its muted tones. Adapted to arid, rocky environments, this species thrives in some of the harshest conditions, exemplifying resilience and understated beauty.
