Description:
Thelocactus macdowellii is a summer-growing cactus native to northeastern Mexico, recognized for its award-winning garden merit. It features a light green stem that can grow up to 4 inches tall and wide, with funnel-shaped pink or magenta flowers that have a yellow center. This cactus requires full sun or light shade and a very porous potting mix for good drainage. It is frost-tolerant down to 20°F and benefits from a cool resting period in winter to enhance flowering.
