Product Description

The Turbinicarpus dickisoniae ARAMBERRI form CRESTED is a fascinating variant of the species, known for its unusual crested growth pattern. Unlike the typical dome-shaped form, this crested variant features a fan-like, convoluted structure, giving it a unique and striking appearance. The plant’s surface is adorned with tubercles covered in woolly areoles, from which short, curved spines emerge, usually in shades of white to brown. It produces delicate pink flowers with a lighter center, typically blooming along the crest’s ridges. This rare form is a prized specimen among collectors for its distinctive shape and aesthetic appeal.
