Product Description

Neoporteria cachytayensis is a small, globular to cylindrical cactus native to the arid regions of northern Chile. This species typically grows solitary, featuring dark green to reddish-brown stems with prominent ribs and tubercles. The spines are short, straight, and range in color from yellowish to dark brown. The plant produces funnel-shaped flowers that are bright pink to magenta, emerging from the apex. Neoporteria cachytayensis thrives in well-draining, sandy to rocky soils and requires full sun. It is highly drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional watering during the growing season.
