Product Description

The Pyrrhocactus totoralensis is a rare and resilient cactus species native to the high-altitude regions of Argentina. This plant features small, globular to slightly cylindrical stems that are a vibrant green to bluish-green. The ribs are well-defined, adorned with prominent tubercles. The spines are short, stout, and can range in color from yellow to reddish-brown, creating a striking contrast against the green body. In spring, the Pyrrhocactus totoralensis blooms with beautiful, funnel-shaped yellow flowers that emerge from the top of the stems, adding a splash of color to its rugged appearance.
