Welcome to the world of Rebutia carnival - a stunning perennial, evergreen hybrid cactus that's bound to leave you in awe! Hailing all the way from Bolivia, this small, low-maintenance variety is a member of the Rebutia genus.
With its globular shape and dense spine covering, this Rebutia can grow up to 3 inches tall and 4 inches wide, making it an absolute show-stopper. These white or yellow spines are arranged in a star pattern around this globular stem, providing protection from predators while also adding to its distinct aesthetic appeal. The flowers of the Rebutia carnival are large and showy, and can be pink, red, orange, or yellow in color typically bloom in the spring or summer and last for several days.
This carnival plant prefers bright, indirect light for at least 4-6 hours daily and specialized cactus potting mix, and should be watered sparingly during the growing season in the spring and summer. It is a great choice for a windowsill or other bright indoor location or can be grown outdoors in a rock garden in USDA zones 9-11.
But that's not all - it's also incredibly low maintenance, making it perfect for even the busiest gardener. At Planet Desert, we're proud to offer Rebutia carnival online so, that gardening enthusiasts everywhere can enjoy its beauty.
