PLANT:

• Mammillaria rhodantha 'Pringlei' Cristata is a unique crested form of the Mammillaria rhodantha species, prized for its unusual fan-like growth pattern and densely packed spines. Unlike the typical cylindrical shape, the crested form grows in a wavy, irregular pattern, creating a captivating display of form and texture. Its spines range from golden yellow to reddish-brown, providing a beautiful contrast against the green stem. In spring, this cactus produces small pink to magenta flowers along its ridges. Due to its distinctive shape, 'Pringlei' Cristata is a highly collectible cactus among enthusiasts.
• Water Needs: Low; water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter.
• Light Requirement: Full sun to partial shade. Bright light enhances spine color and overall growth.
• Maintenance: Low; minimal care is required. Handle with care due to spines. Propagate by cuttings, though crested forms are challenging to propagate.
