 Copiapoa griseoviolacea v. Freirina (Chile) is a beautiful and fascinating site-specific form of Copiapoa griseoviolacea, native to the arid coastal region near Freirina. This variety embodies the subtle, mysterious elegance of the Atacama Desert, where fog and mineral-rich soils make life possible in one of the driest regions on Earth.


 The plant forms solitary to slightly grouped shoots, ranging in shape from rounded to short columnar, and displays a characteristic grey-violet coloration that intensifies under strong sunlight – hence the name griseoviolacea . The surface is often covered with a soft, powdery coating, giving the plant a silvery sheen. The ribs are well-defined, bearing dark areoles from which short to medium-sized spines emerge, changing from black to grey with age.


 During its flowering period, delicate yellow flowers emerge from the crown, providing a striking contrast to the cool, violet-gray body. Slow-growing and perfectly adapted to the misty desert climate, Copiapoa griseoviolacea v. Freirina is a highly prized collector's item due to its subtle color palette, sculptural form, and the quiet, mysterious aura of its native habitat.
