LOBIVIA ANCISTROPHORA

Lobivia ancistrophora, also known under its synonym Echinopsis subdenudata, is a small, globular cactus native to Bolivia. It features a dark green to bluish body with subtle ribs and small, white areoles, often with minimal spines—giving it a clean, sculptural look.

What truly makes this cactus stand out is its spectacular flowering. It produces large, fragrant, trumpet-shaped flowers—typically white, though some varieties show pale pink or yellow tones. These blooms are especially impressive when compared to the plant’s small size and usually appear in late spring or summer.

This cactus is extremely easy to care for. It thrives in bright light, prefers well-draining cactus soil, and requires only occasional watering—especially during its dormant winter period. Because of its compact size and beautiful flowers, it’s ideal for small pots, windowsills, succulent arrangements, or rock gardens.

Loved by collectors and beginners alike, Lobivia ancistrophora offers the perfect mix of beauty, simplicity, and resilience. It’s a great choice for those who want a low-maintenance plant that still provides a dramatic floral display.
