Product Description

The seeds of Neoporteria limariensis are tiny, dark brown to black, with a slightly rough and matte texture. Their compact, oval shape helps them retain moisture, a key adaptation for germination in arid conditions. These seeds give rise to a rare, globular cactus with pronounced ribs and dense, interwoven spines. As it matures, it produces spectacular pink to purple flowers, adding a striking contrast to its spiny body. A true collector’s gem, this slow-growing species thrives in well-drained environments.
