Dimensions: Typically grows 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) tall and wide, depending on the variety.
Growth Rate: Slow-growing, especially when grafted onto a host cactus.
Flowering Information: Produces small, colorful blooms in shades of pink, red, or yellow during the growing season, often in summer.
Foliage: Rounded, ribbed, green or brightly colored cactus body with small spines; often grafted onto a contrasting green base cactus.

Sunlight Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light; avoid direct sunlight to prevent sunburn on the colorful top.
Watering Needs: Water sparingly; allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
Soil Type: Well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix; sandy or gritty soil works best.
Temperature and Humidity: Thrives in temperatures between 65–85°F (18–29°C); tolerates low humidity. Protect from frost.
Fertilization: Feed with a diluted cactus fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing.
Pruning Needs: Minimal pruning required; remove any dead or rotting sections to maintain health.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years or when the base cactus outgrows the pot; choose a pot with good drainage.
Toxicity: Non-toxic to humans and pets, but spines can cause minor injuries if touched.
Additional Tips: Avoid overwatering as it can cause root rot; rotate the plant occasionally to promote even growth and exposure to light.
