Kukho i-cacti ethi, nangona ikhula kancinci, inqweneleka kakhulu. Nanini na xa bethengisa, into engenzeki rhoqo, kulula ukuba abathengisi baphelelwe ziikopi ezikhoyo ngeyure nje. Oku kwenzeka kuye I-Ariocarpus retusus.
Ayinabume buqhelekileyo be-cactus, kodwa mhlawumbi kungenxa yoko okanye ngenxa yentyatyambo entle evelisayo, kunzima ukuba ilahlekile kuyo nayiphi na ingqokelela. Ngaba siyayazi?
I-Ariocarpus retusus ligama lenzululwazi lohlobo lwendalo eCoahuila, Nuevo León, Tamaulipas nase San Luis Potosí (Mexico) oluchazwe nguMichael Joseph François Scheidweiler kwaye lwapapashwa IBulletin de l'Academie Royale des Sciences et Belles-iileta zeBruxelles ngonyaka 1838.
Ibonakaliswa ngokuba nomzimba ongaqhelekanga: inee-tubercles ezahlukileyo ezixinene kunye nengcebiso ebukhali, engwevu-luhlaza, malunga ne-30cm ububanzi ngama-25cm ukuphakama.. Ii-areola zikwiingcebiso zeetubercles. Iintyatyambo zimalunga ne-3-5cm ubukhulu kwaye zimthubi okhanyayo, mhlophe, cream okanye, kunqabile kakhulu, zinemigca ebomvu phakathi.

Ukuba sithetha ngokulima kwayo, eyona nto ibalulekileyo ekufuneka siyazi kukuba Kuya kufuneka ibekwe kwilanga elipheleleyo embizeni enzulu, nge-substrate eququzelela umjelo wamanzi. Ukulungiselela le nto, kuyacetyiswa ukuba kusetyenziswe i-100% yepumice okanye isanti yomlambo ehlanjiweyo, njengoko ii-substrates eziqukethe i-peat zihlala ziyingozi kunokuba ziluncedo kwi-Ariocarpus retusus.
Kwakhona, kufuneka uyinkcenkceshele kancinci, nangaphantsi kwenye i-cacti: kube kanye ngeentsuku ezili-10 ehlotyeni kunye neentsuku ezingama-20 ukuya kwengama-30 kunyaka ophelileyo. Ngokunjalo, kufuneka siyibhatale ngesichumisi esingamanzi se-cactus kulandela izikhombisi ezichaziweyo kwiphakheji yemveliso.
Inqanda ukubanda kunye neqabaka ukuya kuthi ga -2ºC.
