Mammillaria elongata Freely Clumping Tubular Gold Spine Cactus

Description: The Mammillaria cactus family, one of the most remarkable groups within the Cactaceae family, elicits great fascination and admiration from botanists and enthusiasts alike. Displaying an astonishing diversity in size, shape, and spination patterns, these cacti captivate with their intricately arranged tubercles, each adorned with clusters of areoles bearing spines. The genus Mammillaria encompasses around 200 recognized species, making it one of the largest within the Cactaceae family. These cacti are primarily native to the arid regions of Mexico and the southwestern United States, where they have brilliantly adapted to survive in harsh desert conditions. Notably, many Mammillaria species are characterized by their eye-catching floral displays, with vibrant blooms adorning the apex of their globular or columnar bodies. As botanists, we are continuously astounded by the tenacity and resilience exhibited by Mammillaria cacti in their ability to thrive in the face of adversity, all the while showcasing exquisite forms and fascinating evolutionary adaptations.Mammillaria elongata has massively clumping hot dog shaped stems topped with light yellow flowers in the spring. Can handle short periods of frost. You are bidding on one of the specimens shown. All Mammillarias produce several rings of flowers around the crown during their flowering period, which is typically during the spring and early summer. The rings of flowers may keep the plant in flower for several weeks. Additional flowers may occur through out the year after a good rain.
