Mammillaria bertholdii ‘Superspina’ is a rare and fascinating cactus that has quickly earned a place among the most desirable small-growing Mammillaria in cultivation. Discovered relatively recently in habitat, this species captivated collectors with its unusual flattened form, refined symmetry, and delicate yet intricate surface texture. Its naturally low, compact body gives it an understated elegance, while closer inspection reveals an extraordinary level of detail.
 
The Superspina form amplifies the plant’s visual drama by producing markedly stronger and more pronounced spines than the typical species. These elongated, characterful spines radiate from each areole, creating a dynamic contrast against the smooth tubercles beneath. The result is a plant that feels both refined and powerful, combining softness and strength in a way few cacti manage to achieve. Each specimen develops its own personality, with subtle differences in spine length, density, and overall silhouette.
