Blooming season: Flowers are freely produced from June onwards and remain open for only one day.
It is a good beginner cactus and very easy to grow and flower. It is quite resistant. Requires good drainage and very porous potting mix.
Watering needs: needs regular water in spring to fall but do not water again until dry. Also, it is a species that is dormant in the winter and requires very little water (maybe even none) during the cold months.
Frost tolerance: Light frost protection required.
Sun exposure: Requires bright light (protect from strong midday sun). In shade the body color will remain mostly green, while full sun will darken it and give it red/brown body color.
