Rebutia fulviseta [large]

Highlights

Rebutia fulviseta is a petite and captivating cactus species featuring a spherical, clumping form and soft, golden-brown spines that give it a fuzzy, glowing appearance. Native to the high-altitude regions of Bolivia and Argentina, this charming cactus produces an impressive floral display, with bright orange to fiery red blooms that emerge in clusters around its base during the spring and summer months. Its compact growth and easy-care nature make it an excellent choice for small pots, windowsills, or cactus collections. Rebutia fulviseta thrives in bright light and well-draining soil, requiring minimal water, and offers a delightful combination of texture, color, and resilience in any arid or indoor garden setting.

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.
