Additional information
Weight 1 lbs Tephrocactus articulatus var papyrocanthus is endemic of western Argentina. It is commonly known as Paper Spine Cactus, Paper Spine Cholla Cactus.Β Is a segmented bushy succulent slowly growing up to up to 30 cm, it is the typical form of a group of variety. It develops in little pine-cone shaped segments that are loosely attached to each other and fall easily and it has broad, raffia like, conspicuous , flattened spines which are not spines but thin ribbon like processes, and vary much as to their color, markings, and length. Blooms are either white or yellow. The white flowers make a nice contrast to the earth-tone colors of the plant. 1 to 5 cm long fruit is brown.Β It is fairly cold resistant and hardy to 15Β°F. Needs full sun, (with insufficient illumination stems get thinner as a result of the lack of sun) The main growing period is spring. It might produce some new segments in the autumn too. Needs good drainage. Plant will ship bare root.

I have visited their nursery, they are extremely knowledgeable and have an amazing collection. Always high quality.
My plantis so adorable. It is just as described. I am looking forward to seeing it grow
Very small and sad looking.
Great addition to my succulent and cactus collection. Completely satisfied with this purchase. Highly recommend this seller. Thank you.
Arrived in good condition. Fast shipping and well packaged.
Received after 3 days I ordered. They arrived in a box. All wrapped loosely by used newspapers. You can see the roots with some soil still attached. I planted them in pots the next day. I put them in my sun room. Hope they will grow healthy and see the flowers soon.
