Copiapoa humilis

The Copiapoa humilis is a compact, low-growing cactus native to the arid regions of northern Chile. This charming plant forms dense clusters of globular, slightly flattened stems, covered in a bluish-gray or greenish epidermis. Its ribs are adorned with small, rounded tubercles and clusters of short, sharp, yellowish spines. In summer, it produces stunning, pale yellow, funnel-shaped flowers, creating a striking contrast with its spiny surface. This succulent thrives in extreme desert conditions, showcasing its remarkable ability to endure heat and drought.
