Description
Uebelmannia pseudopectinata var. crebrispina is a small, globular to slightly columnar cactus native to Brazil. It features a dark green to purplish stem with well-defined ribs and densely packed, short, white to yellowish spines that form a pectinate (comb-like) pattern. The variety name “crebrispina” refers to the particularly dense spination, setting it apart from the typical form. It produces small yellow flowers at the apex under ideal conditions.
