Product Description
The seeds of Polaskia chichipe are small, dark brown to black, and have a hard, slightly roughened texture. Their irregular shape is typical of columnar cacti, with a durable seed coat that protects the delicate embryo inside. These lightweight yet resilient seeds are designed to endure dry conditions before germination. Under magnification, they may display fine surface ridges or a subtle reticulated pattern, characteristic of many arid-adapted cactus species. Once germinated, they give rise to the majestic Polaskia chichipe, a striking, slow-growing columnar cactus from Mexico.
