Product Description

 

Mammillaria sonorensis is a compact, globular cactus with a striking array of white radial spines and short central spines that may darken with age. Its surface is lined with tubercles rather than ribs, giving it a textured, geometric look. Blooming in late spring, it produces a crown of small pink to purplish flowers at the apex, forming a vivid halo. Native to Sonora, Mexico, this species thrives in arid habitats, adapting beautifully to container life or rock gardens.
