Product Description

The Ariocarpus retusus x kotschoubeyanus IB6 is an extraordinary hybrid cactus celebrated for its unique tubercles that combine the best traits of both parent species. It forms a compact, flat rosette with fleshy, triangular tubercles intricately arranged in geometric patterns. The color varies from grayish-green to bluish-green, enhancing its stone-like, camouflaged appearance. In autumn, it produces vibrant pink to magenta flowers that emerge from the center, creating a striking contrast with its sculptural body. This IB6 hybrid is highly prized for its rare form and captivating beauty, making it a collector's gem.
