Introducing another iconic member of the Peyote cactus family, the Lophophora Diffusa genus—an enchanting plant that will infuse your space with an aura of mystique. With a rich cultural heritage deeply rooted in its utilization by indigenous communities for spiritual and religious purposes, Peyote holds a captivating allure.
Originating from the southernmost regions of Lophophora populations, specifically the Querétaro desert and Xerophytic shrubland in Mexico, Lophophora Diffusa is a remarkable specimen. Now available in a compact 6cm pot size (bare-rooted, see advice below), it is a perfect addition for avid collectors and those seeking botanical intrigue.
The Lophophora Diffusa genus is a solitary plant, sometimes forming clumps, and features lime green stems adorned with broad, wavy ribs. Notably, the Diffusa stems are larger compared to those of Lophophora Williamsii. However, there's more to this cactus than meets the eye. Beneath the soil line, a taproot extends, providing stability and resilience. During the growing season, Lophophora Diffusa surprises with its profusion of pretty faint pink-white, sometimes yellowish-white flowers, which transform into bright pink fruits, concealing the magical gems of its seeds.
Undoubtedly, the Peyote cactus will become the centerpiece of conversation and admiration in any setting. Thriving in bright indirect light, it finds its perfect spot on sunny windowsills or well-lit indoor areas. With its adaptation to arid conditions, the Peyote cactus requires minimal watering. Simply ensure well-draining soil and provide occasional watering during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
Whether you're an enthusiastic cactus collector or simply appreciate the irresistible allure of the Peyote cactus, this 6cm pot size presents a delightful opportunity to welcome this mystical Lophophora Diffusa plant into your life. Prepare to embark on a journey of botanical wonder as you experience the magic and intrigue it brings to your botanical sanctuary. Order your Peyote cactus today and unlock the enchantment within.
