Description:
Mammillaria longiflora ssp. longiflora is a cactus known for its purple flowers and fleshy stems. It requires very well-draining soil and is sensitive to overwatering, making it somewhat challenging to grow into clumps. This cactus is dormant in winter, needing minimal water, and is somewhat frost-tolerant. It thrives in full sun but requires afternoon shade in hot climates to prevent sunburn. The plant is native to Chihuahua and prefers high light levels for optimal flowering and spine development.
