Rebutia mentosa: A Small, Clustering, Orange-Flowered Cactus

Rebutia mentosa is a charming, small, clustering cactus that forms dense mounds of flattened, globular stems. Its ribs are low and covered in short, white to brownish spines. In spring, it produces an abundance of large, funnel-shaped, bright orange to red flowers that nearly cover the plant. This Bolivian/Argentine native is one of the easiest and most floriferous rebutias, perfect for beginners and sunny windowsills.
