Product Description

Mammillaria ingens is a notable cactus known for its large, cylindrical body, typically growing up to 20 cm in height and 10 cm in diameter. This succulent plant has numerous tubercles arranged in a neat spiral pattern, each topped with clusters of fine, white radial spines and longer central spines. The cactus produces beautiful, small pink or pale yellow flowers that encircle the crown, followed by red, berry-like fruits. Native to central Mexico, it adds a bold statement to any collection or desert landscape.
