Description:

Collection #SB423, Brewster Co., TX. Without question, this is one of the most beautiful miniature gems of the cactus world. A very rare species from the Big Bend area of TX (grown from garden cultivated seed), the tiny stems are hidden by corky white spines and bloom in summer with spectacular white-eyed, deep pink flowers. A very slow grower, these are 4 and 5 year old blooming-sized plants. Extremely heat tolerant and surprisingly cold hardy.

Zones 6 -10
