Uebelmannia pectinifera is an attractive small cactus with a solitary stem that usually appears granular and is covered with waxy, white scales. The stem is spherical, becoming cylindrical with age, has 15 to 18 triangular ribs, and can grow up to 3.3 feet (1 m) tall and 6.8 inches (17 cm) in diameter. If grown in shade, the stem is green with white stripes, while in full sun, it can turn frosty brown or purple.
Even for cacti, these plants have a low tolerance for cold temperatures, and letting them into even temperate conditions is an easy way to damage them. Make sure to keep well-watered, as well, and give them lots of light.
