    Hi, I buy a little plant of mammilaria boccasana. I need information about growing this cactus very well.
    Thanks, to all :-)

    I don't know too much about this one or growing cactus at all really. Want to point out that if you are doing searches the correct spelling is Mammillaria bocasana - for better results. What I found on the web was that this is one of the easier cacti to grow. Use cactus soil - it is a very small cactus, so chances are you won't need to repot it anyway. Keep dry, very little water in winter - cactus rot if overwatered. Full sun. Minimum temperature 50° C.

    Maybe someone else will have personal experience for you. Good luck,
