Melocactus conoideus is one of the funkiest cacti! They are native to parts of Brazil, and are extremely drought tolerant. The unique characteristic trait about this cactus is that they're a cephallium cactus. When these cacti get bigger they'll form a big red bump (inflorescence) at the top. From there the inflorescence will continue to grow. They can even get bigger than the plant itself! 

Care

These will thrive in a bright space, the brighter the better. Since they are drought tolerant, you'll want to let these really dry out in between waterings. Water once every 3-4 weeks or when the soil is completely dry. When re-potting use a semi-coarse cactus medium. These plants are known to grow very slow!

All of our plants are ethically sourced from certified U.S. nurseries. We strongly condemn the poaching of plants or wild collection.
