Product Description

The seeds of Notocactus ottonis var. vencluianus are minuscule yet robust, boasting a dark brown to nearly black hue with a glossy, finely textured surface. Their tiny, slightly curved form reflects their adaptation to arid environments. These seeds exhibit a subtle wrinkled or pitted pattern, which enhances water absorption upon germination. As a variety of the classic Notocactus ottonis, they carry the genetic potential for striking golden-yellow blooms atop their distinctive, ribbed, spherical cactus bodies.
