Common names include Carmen pincushion cactus

Flowers: Diurnal, (usually) creamy white to pink or pale pink.

Blooming season: Plant blooms at the same time in late winter-early spring and is very generous with its flowers.

Cultivation and propagation: It’s a relatively rapid growing species. Water regularly in summer, but do not over-water (rot prone). Use a pot with good drainage and a very porous potting media. Keep dry in winter. It is quite frost resistant if kept dry, hardy as low as -5° C. Outside full sun or afternoon shade, inside it needs bright light, and some direct sun.

Easily clustering and easily flowered. Most plants will offset readily, and clumps can be produced in a few years.
