Special features
This form of Sulcorebutia rauschii has a bright purple or violet stem instead of the usual green. They offset profusely and form large clumps of small individual heads over time.
Care guide
Sulcorebutia can handle quite a bit of light and should only be kept under 40% shade cloth at most. They need to be planted in a soil medium that offers good drainage and plenty of space for the roots to grow. Only water these plants in spring and summer, as they need a rest period during the cooler months of the year.
