This mix may include several stunning species from the Neochilenia (now Eriosyce) group:

• Neochilenia floccosa – Distinguished by its woolly areoles and white or pink flowers.

Plant Characteristics:
Neochilenia cacti are typically small to medium-sized, growing up to 5–15 cm in height. They have well-defined ribs with prominent spines and produce large, colorful flowers that bloom in spring and summer. Some species are densely spined, while others have a more smooth and minimal appearance.
