Cultivation

Collector observation

W. Zychowski used about 85% mineral components, abundant light and moderate watering. His growing conditions were above 20°C by day and 15°C at night. Overwintering was at about 10°C in a leafless state, with limited water. [Kaktusy i Inne 2005a, file p. 42]

Propagation and interpretation

Synteza

Sowing and cuttings. The described overwintering in complete darkness applies to the author's leafless plant and is not a recommendation for leafy, growing specimens. Wilting alone does not establish rot. Check moisture and roots. [Kaktusy i Inne 2005a, file p. 42]
