Pincushion Cactus

Pincushion cactus
Pincushion cactus may grow small flowers and elongated red berries if given the right conditions. The pincushion cactus is a small, ball-shaped to spherical plant that is usually covered in spines or white wool. Some are solitary, but most are clustering. Small flowers in white, pink, or red appear in a ring around the top of the plant and are often followed by elongated red berries. Total dryness, cool to cold temperatures in winter, and full sun in summer are the secrets to getting this cactus to bloom.
