Product Description

Pyrrhocactus floccosus is a distinctive cactus known for its globular to cylindrical shape and densely spined body. The plant features dark green to bluish-green skin covered with white, woolly areoles, giving it a fuzzy appearance. Its spines are typically straight and can vary in color from yellow to reddish-brown. In the summer, it produces small, funnel-shaped flowers that range from yellow to orange. Native to the arid regions of Argentina, Pyrrhocactus floccosus thrives in well-draining soil and is an excellent choice for cactus enthusiasts and rock gardens.
