3-4cm gymnocalycium stellatum（variegated）

Key Features

• Striking Star-Shaped Structure: Deep green stems with 8-12 sharp, angular ribs that form a geometric, star-like pattern—creating visual interest even when not in bloom.
• Vibrant Blooms: Produces showy, funnel-shaped flowers in late spring to summer, ranging from bright pink to magenta with creamy yellow centers. Blooms measure 2-3 inches in diameter and last 1-2 weeks, adding a vivid pop of color.
• Low-Maintenance Nature: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight (4-6 hours daily) and is highly drought-resistant. Water only when soil is completely dry (every 2-3 weeks in growing season, monthly in dormancy)—perfect for busy owners.
• Compact Growth: Maintains a neat, spherical shape and slow growth rate, fitting seamlessly in small pots (5-6 inch diameter) for windowsills, shelves, or office desks.
• Hardy & Long-Lived: Adapts to various conditions (USDA zones 9-11 outdoors) and can survive for decades with proper care, making it a valuable, long-term addition to any cactus collection.
