Product Description

The seeds of Parodia nigrispina are tiny, dark brown to nearly black, with a slightly rough and textured surface. Their minute size and irregular shape make them distinct, often featuring delicate ridges that aid in dispersal. These seeds carry the genetic blueprint for the striking, spiny cactus known for its dense covering of black-tipped spines. Despite their small size, Parodia nigrispina seeds hold the potential to grow into a remarkable globular cactus, making them a prized choice among collectors and enthusiasts of rare cacti.
