Mammillaria Matudae
Origin

Family
Cactaceae
Description
Mammillaria Matudae produces cylindrical stems with highly variable spine colors. Offsets prolifically to form wide clusters in time. Radial spines are pectinate and appressed (curved toward body), and can vary from whitish to deep cinnamon.
Environment
Mammillaria species like most cacti they're drought tolerant and need very little care and attention to grow well . Plenty of sunshine will keep this cacti more than happy. Provide bright, even light to encourage tight growth and flowering. Some shade during a hot summers day can be helpful to prevent sunburn.
Allow the soil mix to become nearly dry between watering, but then water thoroughly. Suspend watering in the winter, but mist occasionally. Not enough sunlight and over-watering are common mistakes.
Use pot with good drainage and a very porous potting media.
Feed every 4 weeks with a high potassium fertiliser during summer
Landscape Uses
Suited for window sill and dish gardens
