Gymnocalycium saglionis cactus houseplant
  • Gymnocalycium saglionis (Cels) Britton & Rose is a solitary barrel cactus, rather flattened, often very large, with long spreading and sometimes recurved spines. They are a rich brown and form a pleasing contrast against the grey green body. The plant tolerate extremely bright situations but are likely to suffer from sun scorch or stunted growth if over exposed to direct sunlight during the hottest part of the day in summer. Since they are big sized plants need plenty of space for their roots, repotting should be done every other year or when the plant has outgrown its pot.

     

    The genus name Gymnocalycium (from Greek, "naked calyx") refers to the flower buds bearing no hair or spines.
