Mammillaria hahniana f. cristata
The cristate form (Mammillaria hahniana f. cristata) develops brain-like crests instead of the normal globular shape. Plants form tight, fan-shaped clusters covered in dense white spines with pinkish wool, creating a striking sculptural look. This plant will be sent bare-rooted (without soil) for safe shipping.
Care
- Light: Full sun to bright light for dense spine development.
- Water: Water thoroughly when dry in summer; keep almost dry in winter.
- Temperature: Tolerates cool to warm conditions (5–30 °C); protect from frost.
- Media: Well-drained cactus mix.
- Fertiliser: Apply diluted cactus fertiliser during growing season.
Key Characteristics
- Growth Form: Cristate (fan-shaped, brain-like)
- Spines: White, woolly, very dense
- Flowering: Pink-purple flowers along the ridges in spring–summer
- Growth Rate: Slow, long-lived
- Display: Excellent for shallow pots or dish gardens
