Gymnocalycium damsii Variegata
Beautiful, variegated form of this species.
Plants growing 4 to 6cm across, large 4cm flowers appear in summer. Older plants can flower for up to 8 weeks in summer. Plants are very slow growing and will form masses of offsets from the side that area easily removed.
Position - under protected partially shaded positions outdoors. Indoors only in sunny positions otherwise they will lose their nice shape and colour. Flowering will only occur in good light.
Watering - can be watered all year round and grow fastest in the warmer months. Plants will survive without water for very long periods and remain compact when dry.
Feeding - 25% of recommended dosage monthly in growing period. The less food, the better the shape of the plant. Fertilisers high in nitrogen can reduce flowering period.
Repotting - can be left to overgrow their pots or repotted in the warmer months in almost any well-drained potting mix.
