This member af the Cactaceae family was first described by Britt and Rose in 1922. It si from Mexico, where it grows in grit on the hill-sides. It gets lots of water in two months and lots of sun all year. It will grow to 40 centimetres in diameter and one meter high. The flowers are orange/yellow, and seeds are the only way of reproducing. I found Rikke´s in Roskilde 2001.
