Product Description

Geohintonia mexicana seeds, freshly harvested. Geohintonia mexicana seeds The Geohintonia mexicana is one of the rarest and most sought-after cactus species, a true jewel among collectors. Native to the steep limestone cliffs of northeastern Mexico, it grows into a compact globular to short columnar form, with perfectly arranged vertical ribs. Its surface is covered in tiny crystalline flecks, giving the plant a frosted, silvery sheen that makes it look almost sculpted from stone.

The ribs are deep and symmetrical, topped with small woolly areoles and short, neat spines that enhance its geometric elegance. In maturity, it produces pink to magenta flowers, which stand out vividly against the silver-grey body. Grown from seed, this species offers the rewarding experience of raising one of the most legendary cacti from its earliest stages.

  • Compact form with perfectly structured vertical ribs.

  • Silvery flecked surface enhances architectural appeal.
