Bring the enchanting beauty of a snowy landscape indoors with the Parodia Alba, affectionately known as the Snowball Cactus. This charming succulent, native to the highlands of South America, is a true delight for cactus enthusiasts and beginners alike. Its unique appearance, ease of care, and captivating blooms make it a must-have addition to any collection.

Features That Will Enchant You:

  • Snowy White Spines: The Parodia Alba is adorned with a dense covering of soft, white, hair-like spines, giving it a unique, snow-covered appearance. These spines create a beautiful contrast against the green body of the cactus and add a touch of whimsy to any space.
  • Compact & Globular: This cactus maintains a compact, globular shape, typically reaching up to 4 inches in diameter. Its manageable size makes it perfect for windowsills, desks, or as part of a miniature desert landscape.
  • Cheerful Blooms: In the spring and summer months, the Snowball Cactus produces a stunning display of vibrant yellow or white flowers that encircle the crown of the plant. These cheerful blooms add a touch of sunshine to its already captivating appearance.

Thrive with Ease:

  • Sunlight: This sun-loving cactus thrives in bright, direct light. Place it in a sunny location, such as a south-facing window, to ensure optimal growth and flowering.
  • Well-Draining Soil: Plant your Parodia Alba in a well-draining cactus or succulent mix to prevent root rot.
  • Watering: Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. 

Why You'll Love the Snowball Cactus:

  • Unique & Eye-Catching: Its soft, white spines and compact, globular form make it a truly unique and visually appealing addition to any succulent collection.
  • Beautiful Blooms: The vibrant flowers add a splash of color and attract pollinators like bees and butterflies to your garden.
  • Low Maintenance: This cactus is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering, making it perfect for busy plant parents or those new to succulent care.

The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
