- Blossfeldia is a solitary or clumping miniature cactus, with no rib and no spines. The smallest of all cacti and one of the most priced by impassioned, but rarely seen on its own roots in cultivation for any length of time. It is a highly specialized species with a unique growth habit. Its minuscule stems during the dry season, lose almost all of their water and shrink, becoming almost completely dry and flattened on the rocks where it lives.
- Flowers are white or pinkish (yellow) diurnal, 6-15 mm long, and 5-7 mm diameter from late spring to early summer.
- All of the plants will be shipped bare root.
LIGHT/SOIL/WATER
- Some shade with ample airflow is preferred for the best appearance.
- Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch, then let drain completely. Reduce watering in the winter.
- Grow it in a particularly draining substratum, as it is very sensitive to rottenness when in presence of humidity and low temperatures and let the soil dry out between watering.
