The Notocactus scopa inermis crested grafted plant is one of the most distinctive and unmistakable crested cacti available. Its spineless body is covered in a short white wool, with a few small bristly spines occasionally produced.

This grafted cactus is easy to grow, forming large brain-like mounds with age. It needs some direct sun to stay compact but prefers light shade during hot summer months. Water during the active growing season in spring and summer for optimum growth. This is a unique and eye-catching addition to any collection.
