Melocactus azureus HU256 SEEDS

Melocactus azureus, often referred to as the Blue Turk's Cap Cactus, is a striking and distinctive species of cactus native to the arid regions of Brazil. It is known for its unique appearance, characterized by a bluish-green, spherical or columnar stem covered in prominent ribs and white woolly cephalium at the top. The cephalium is where this cactus produces pink to reddish flowers and eventually develops fruit.

This species is highly prized among cactus enthusiasts for its striking coloration and the contrast between its blue-green stem and the vibrant flowers it produces. Like most cacti, Melocactus azureus is well-adapted to arid conditions and prefers well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight. It's crucial to handle this cactus with care, as its spines can be sharp.

Melocactus azureus adds a touch of exotic beauty to any arid or succulent garden and is a favorite among collectors of rare and visually appealing cacti.
