The Amazing World of Lophophora Diffusa Cactus

Are you a collector of Lophophora genus or looking to add to your cactus collection? If so, you're certain to love the Lophophora Diffusa cactus!

​

One of the most sought after and primitive species of Peyote, a fascinating and captivating plant which will make a prized addition to any plant collection!

​

The shape of the Lophophora Diffusa cactus is one of its most distinctive characteristics. This cactus has a globular body and a large tap root. The body is just the tip of the iceberg as so to speak. Differing to Lophophora Williamsii, the Diffusa has a higher number of ribs, which appear to be a little more wavy.

​

As well as its shape, this cactus is also known for its pretty delicate flowers. During the spring and summer months, this cactus is known to produce multiple flowers on each head, that add a pop of colour to any space. The flowers are often white to pale-pink, sometimes yellow and offer a real treat for the eyes.

​

The Lophophora Diffusa cactus is also surprisingly durable and simple to take care of despite its fragile appearance. It can withstand drought for many months, but loves well-draining soil and bright, indirect light. This cactus is an excellent option for collectors and those who are just getting into the wonderful world of Desert Plants. Perfect for individuals looking for a low-maintenance plant that can live for many years with the right care.
