Rebutia helosia (Aylostera Helosia)
$6.49 – $17.99
Rebutia helosia is particularly attractive, thanks to its tiny sliver-white pectinate spines and brown areoles. Branches freely from the base and is prone to root rot. A good draining soil is a must with this cactus. It is considered by many to be one of the nicest in the rebutia species.

This plant comes from mountainous areas, so it is important for the plant to have a cool winter period. Our flowers are orange but there is also a red variance.
- Soil/Planting: When planting or repotting your plants, you always should use cacti soil or a well draining soil. Choosing a new pot can be a fun task, but you want to make sure that there are drainage holes in the pot.
- Fertilizer: To help insure your new succulent gets the nutrients it needs, we recommend using a cactus fertilizer once a month during the growing season.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry. Allow soil to dry out between watering. If you are unsure about how much to water, a moisture meter is an inexpensive tool that can help. During the winter months, be careful to not overwater.
- Hardiness: Plants will not tolerate frost and should be brought indoors or to a protective area. You should always check to see if your plant will survive outside during the winter month.
