Description:
Ariocarpus fissuratus mostruosus forms large
proliferating dark green stems with white
woolly
crowns.
It shows an abnormal,
uncoordinated form of vegetative growth, with a
multitude of condensed lateral proliferation, each areole originating a
new stem only a few centimetres across.
The plant looks more like a
strange furry animal or a marine creature than a
cactus.
Remarks: Each
specimen shows some growing
variations
and is different and particular.
Cultivation: This plant is grown exclusively grafted. Keep
well
ventilated,
protect from
frosts
and
freezes.
Give plenty of light to keep plant compact, but avoid direct sun
exposure in the hottest part of the day during the summer.
