Currently listed on the endangered species list. Very rare in collections. The growth is very unusual in that each stem is like a mini opuntia cactus pad but pendant in growth. Blooms range from pink to purple depending on temperature during budding.

Likes moist soil but no wet feet so excellent drainage is a must. Recommended for advanced growers only.
