Product Description

Tephrocactus molinensis is a unique and fascinating cactus known for its segmented, cylindrical stems that form intricate, sprawling clumps. Each segment, or "pad," is covered with small, evenly spaced areoles that house sharp, short spines, giving the plant a textured appearance. The pads can range in color from bright green to bluish-green, adding visual interest. In spring, this cactus produces small, delicate white or yellow flowers, often with a hint of pink at the base. These blossoms contrast beautifully with the plant’s rugged exterior, making it a standout addition to any collection.
