Turbinicarpus krainzianus subsp. pseudopectinatus – A Rare Miniature Beauty 

Turbinicarpus krainzianus subsp. pseudopectinatus is a rare, slow-growing cactus native to Mexico. It features small, globular stems covered in delicate, pectinate (comb-like) spines, giving it a fuzzy, silvery-white appearance. During spring, it produces stunning pink to magenta flowers, adding a vibrant contrast to its compact form. Perfect for collectors, this species thrives in well-draining soil and requires minimal care, making it an excellent choice for cactus enthusiasts.

Prepare the Pot:

• Choose a small pot with drainage holes. A terracotta or clay pot is ideal for breathability.

Add Drainage Layer:

• Place a layer of coarse gravel or pumice at the bottom to enhance drainage.

Use Owerview Potting Mix:

• Fill the pot with Owerview Potting Mix, which is specially designed for cacti and succulents. Ensure it’s loose and airy.

Plant the Cactus:

• Carefully place the Turbinicarpus in the center and cover the roots gently with the mix. Avoid burying the base of the stem too deeply.

First Watering:

• Wait for 3–5 days before watering to allow root healing and prevent rot. After that, water lightly when the soil is completely dry.
