Mammillaria duwei

Water in summer.  Allow soil to dry between watering.  Place in deep pot to accommodate tap root.  Well draining soil. Keep dry in winter.  Feed with a high potassium fertilizer in summer.  Frost resistant if kept dry.  Full sun or afternoon shade.  Indoors, needs bright light and some direct sun.

Mammillaria camptotricha

A beautifully spined Mammillaria!  I was fortunate to have this offset after killing the
mother plant which died of rot.  Too wet in winter!
