4-inch Gymnocalycium griseopallidum A1

Gymnocalycium griseo-pallidum, native to Bolivia, is a small, globular cactus characterized by its dark green stem adorned with numerous tubercles and ribs. From woolly white-yellowish areoles emerge central and radial thorns: the radials are yellow or white, long and with the growing of the plant they become greyish; the central ones are more robust and darker, black or brown. In high light conditions, the plant exhibits a pinkish-purple hue. Typically, it grows up to 6 inches (15 cm) in height and 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter. This cactus thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers sandy, well-draining soil. It is extremely drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering; allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root and stem rot. While it can tolerate brief periods of light frost, it is best to protect it from freezing temperatures.
