Mammillaria Columbiana Cactus Seeds

Mammillaria columbiana, commonly known as the South American Pincushion, is a distinctive and highly variable cactus species prized by collectors for its compact, decorative growth. It is notable for being one of the few Mammillaria species found deep into South America, specifically near Bogotá, Colombia.
Features a narrow columnar stem, typically 8–25 cm (3–10 inches) tall and 5–18 cm wide. It is mostly solitary but can slowly form small clumps over time.
Spines: The plant is densely covered in spines. It usually has 18–20 white, bristle-like radial spines and 3–7 stouter central spines that are often golden yellow, brownish, or even reddish in some populations.
Flowers: Small, vibrant reddish-pink to magenta flowers bloom in a ring near the apex, typically in summer. They often fail to open fully and barely protrude from the plant's woolly top.
Fruit: Produces club-shaped, orange-red to bright red berries. Hardy to 32 degrees.
