Cacti - Parodia Roseoluteus
Parodia roseoluteus, formerly known as Notocactus roseoluteus, is a captivating globular cactus native to the grasslands of Uruguay. Its most notable feature is its large, vibrant flowers that range in color from light pink to salmon, with a striking yellow center. These blooms, appearing in the summer, are often wider than the cactus itself, creating a dramatic and eye-catching display.
The body of the Parodia roseoluteus is a bright green, adorned with spines that vary from yellow to brown, adding a warm hue to the plant as it ages. A crown of white wool can be found at the top, further enhancing its unique appearance. This cactus typically grows as a solitary stem, although it can occasionally form small clumps as it matures.
This cactus is relatively easy to care for, preferring well-draining soil and ample sunlight. It is drought-tolerant, requiring infrequent watering, especially during the winter months. It is also moderately cold-hardy, making it a suitable choice for both indoor and outdoor cultivation in warmer climates.
Whether grown indoors as a potted plant or outdoors in a rock garden or desert landscape, Parodia roseoluteus is sure to add a touch of vibrancy and interest with its striking flowers and unique form.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 100mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
