Strombocactus disciformis – Mexican Disc Cactus Seeds
Strombocactus disciformis is a slow, flattened grey-green cactus from cliff faces in Hidalgo and Querétaro, Mexico. Its body is covered in overlapping, scale-like tubercles in a neat spiral, with creamy white flowers from the crown. A true collector's plant.
Germination
For patient growers. The seed is very fine: surface-sow on a fine mineral mix, keep warm and humid under cover, and expect germination over 2–4 weeks. Seedlings are tiny and very slow, and many growers graft them.
What you'll receive
Fresh seed in the pack size you choose, with germination instructions included. The first image is an illustration, not a photo of the plant.
Care
