Maihuenia poeppigii
Maihuenia poeppigii is a succulent cactus shrub native to Chile and Argentina, known for its tolerance to moisture and cold temperatures. It forms dense cushions with small, succulent leaves and produces large, lemon-yellow flowers in late spring. This drought-tolerant plant requires quick-draining soil and full sun to light shade. Its unique appearance and resilience make it a valuable addition to rock gardens or xeriscaping.
