Description:
Mammillaria spinosissima 'Un Pico Cristata' is an easy-to-grow cactus cultivar that forms a cluster of stems highlighted by reddish spines. It produces rings of purple-pink blooms and requires regular watering in summer, while needing to be kept dry with ample airflow in winter. This cactus is quite frost-resistant if kept dry and prefers bright sun, filtered sunlight, or afternoon shade. It tends to bronze in strong light.
