Product Description

Eriosyce bulbocalyx is a striking cactus known for its robust, globular to slightly flattened shape. This variety is distinguished by its exceptionally long, thick spines that can range from white to dark brown. The cactus has pronounced ribs, each topped with dense areoles from which the spines emerge. It blooms in spring or summer, producing large, funnel-shaped flowers in shades of pink, red, or yellow. Native to Argentina, this cactus thrives in arid environments, preferring well-draining, sandy soils and full sun exposure.
