Mammillaria fragilis, commonly known as the Thimble Cactus, forms clusters of small, round stems covered in short, white spines that give it a soft, frosted look. Over time, it spreads into a dense mat of offsets, creating a charming clump that resembles a patch of tiny thimbles. In the right conditions, it may produce petite, cream-colored to pale yellow blooms that ring the tops of the stems, adding to its delicate charm.

Plant Care
