Rebutia krainziana var. inermis (syn. Rebutia pygmaea)
check_circle In Stock
Newly developed spineless form of this species developed by Paradisia.
Krainziana is a diminutive, spineless cactus native to the high-altitude regions of Bolivia. Favoured by collectors for its compact size and prolific flowering, this variety is a naturally occurring form distinguished by its lack of spines, making it a gentler and more accessible species for close handling. It produces vibrant clusters of blooms, often covering the plant’s surface in spring and early summer.
Care Tips
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or morning sun; protect from intense afternoon exposure to avoid scorch.
- Water: Water sparingly during active growth, allowing soil to dry between applications; keep dry in winter.
- Humidity: Thrives in low humidity environments; avoid overly damp conditions.
- Media: Use a sharply draining cactus mix, ideally with added grit or perlite.
- Temperature: Best grown between 10–25°C; tolerate cooler temperatures if kept dry.
- Fertiliser: Apply diluted cactus fertiliser monthly during spring and summer only.
- Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years in early spring to refresh the medium and check for offsets.
