{"title":"Discocactus","description":"\u003cp\u003eDiscocactus is a small tropical cactus genus grown for flattened ribbed bodies and, in maturity, a woolly cephalium that signals flowering age. It looks tidy and compact, but it is not meant for a careless desert-cactus routine on a cold windowsill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe draw lies in detail and maturity. Discocactus rewards patience with a very particular silhouette, yet it needs very bright light, year-round warmth and a sharply draining mineral mix handled with more care than many tougher cacti.
