Cultivation and Mail Sale
of Cacti and Succulents.


Nice yellowish green body and top with fine intricate green pattern. Flowers are yellow.

 

 

In time of drought the plants shrivel and are almost invisible as they get covered with fine wind-blown sand. After rain, however, they absorb water and become fat and turgid. There is a considerable correlation between the colour of different populations and the nature of their habitats. The more widespread a taxa is the more variation within that taxa.

 


C36a (cv. albinica) white blooms
C36b (cv. Storm's albinigold) yellow flower
