Copiapoa Columna Alba v. Tigrillo
The available seeds are 5 purebred Copiapoa Columna Alba v. Tigrillo seeds.
Copiapoa columna-alba v. Tigrillo is a rare and visually fascinating form of Copiapoa columna-alba, native to the arid coastal deserts of northern Chile. Its name Tigrillo ("little tiger" in Spanish) refers to the plant's striking appearance, which often displays subtle brown or golden stripes along its light, columnar body, reminiscent of a tiger's pattern.
This species typically grows as a solitary or slightly grouped columnar stem, with clearly defined ribs bearing short, light-colored spines that contrast beautifully with the delicate body colors. The fine, waxy coating on the epidermis protects it from intense sunlight and harsh desert conditions, giving the plant a soft, slightly luminous appearance.
During the flowering period, small, bright yellow flowers emerge from the apex, providing a striking contrast to the striped, muted body. Slow-growing, hardy, and highly prized for its unique pattern, Copiapoa columna-alba v. Tigrillo is a sought-after collector's item for enthusiasts of rare and visually striking Copiapoa forms.
