Eriosyce coimasensis Crassulaceae Moderate light gives a lightEriosyce coimasensis Family: Cactaceae. A beautiful purple green cactus covered in straight spines. Like most Eriocyse, this species forms a tap root . Flowers are pink petals. This is considered by many to be a form of Eriosyce senilis. It differs from the standard form in having stiff spines. Requires general cactus care, but be careful not to overwater as tap rooted species are more sensitive to rot. Will clump in time. Protect from frost, though
