Copiapoa

It forms many tiny dark purplish bodies covered in contrasting white woolly areole. It looks like Mammillaria luethyi and produces a nice patch over time.

Copiapoa cinerea is one of the most admired species of cacti with chalky/white stems which contrasts well with the jet-black spines. The white coloration is a waxy coating produced to prevent dessication in it's extremely dry environment.

Plant with a large tap-root, connected to the stem by long slender neck. Seedlings naturally produce the huge tap root, starting from germination, i.e. before the plant stem becomes mature.

It is the smallest of the Copiapoa which begins to flower when it is only 1-2 cm in diameter. Slowly over time it forms many small heads. Stem soft brown whit minute spines, yellow flower and large tuberous root.

This is a small growing and easy to to flower species with a naturally dark body and nicely contrasting bright yellow flowers.

Plants on their own roots. This is a nice crested plant with olive-green, or somewhat grey-green, or rarely red-brown stems that forms nice brain-shaped mounds. It is easy to cultivate and a reliable bloomer that flowers throughout the summer.

Distinctive, compact species with small bronze-grey to tan stem, often with purple hues  (usually under 5 cm).  Differs from Paposo's Copiapoa humilis by its firmer body, stonger taproot and longer spines. Produces yellow-orange flowers.

Copiapoa hypogaea v. barquitensis is a small cactus with a tuberous-napiform root, connected though a narrow region to the main stem. The stem is grey-brown or bronzed, 3-4 cm in diameter (up to 7 cm in cultivation), the aerial part is almost disc-shaped.

Copiapoa maritima comes from a habitat with an extremely arid climate, they are remarkably tolerant of pot culture. These plants have thick taproots and are susceptible to overwatering.

A diverse mix of Copiapoa species and seed-grown hybrids, including some seed collected from their natural habitat. Each plant is one-of-a-kind, displaying unique shapes, spination patterns, and flower colors.

Dense and robust spines from amber to brown. Very nice!

Grey-green epidermis and gracefully inward-curving grey spines. The crown is adorned with creamy white wool

Charming species nearly identical to (perhaps just a variety of) C. krainziana. ID marker: only 10-20 spines - exceptionally long, needle-like, flexible (straight/curved), typically pale gray-white, sometimes brownish-tinged.

(Syn: Horridocactus limariensis) – A robust, slow-growing cactus with bronze-green to dusky purple stems wrapped in thick gray to near-black spine, that  create dramatic contrast against the body.

A small, low-growing cactus with thick, turnip-like roots. The stem is depressed and ranges from olive-green to tan. It produces abundant wool at the apex and, while sometimes solitary, usually forms clusters at the base.
