A compact, attractive cactus with a grey-green, flattened globular body and prominent rib patterns lined with small, curved spines. Produces delicate white to pale pink flowers in summer.
Water once every 5-6 days in summer. Water once in 3-4 weeks in winter, because its the period of dormancy. Provide ample daylight - a few hours of direct sunlight is required daily for all cacti. Use a well draining succulent potting mix, preferably Cinder.
