Product Description

The Thelocactus esmeraldana SUPER SPINES is an eye-catching cactus native to the deserts of northern Mexico. This species features small, globular stems that are a bright green, often solitary but occasionally forming small clusters. The standout feature of this variety is its impressive super spines, which are long, stout, and typically white to yellow, creating a dramatic contrast against the green stems. The ribs are well-defined, adorned with prominent tubercles. In spring and summer, it produces beautiful magenta flowers that emerge from the top of the stems, adding a vibrant splash of color to its striking appearance.
