Highlights
Mammillaria schumannii (Hildmann): A clumping, globose cactus with a muted, olive tone. It has short, thick tubercles with white to dark brown spines. Even young plants can bloom each summer, producing small, pink flowers atop their stems. Even in their native Mexican habitats, each stem stays under 2.0" in diameter. This plant is small, but fully rooted in a 3.25" pot.
This cactus variety will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures it can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. Cactus need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 70% to 80% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply and wait for the soil to completely dry out before watering again.
