Lophophora Fricii Cactus | Naturally Imperfect Live Cacti

We hold our Lophophora plants to exceptionally high standards. Prior to shipment, every plant is carefully inspected both above and below the soil line. Specimens that do not meet our strict aesthetic criteria are listed here.

These Lophophora fricii plants are fully healthy; however, minor cosmetic imperfections prevent them from qualifying for our primary listings. This can be rust spots, physical damage from neighboring cacti or signs of etiolation. As a result, these live cacti offer outstanding value and often return to near-perfect form after just one growing season.

Our iron clad 14 day plant guarantee still applies to these cacti.

In many cases, there are no visible imperfections above the soil line, with minor flaws present only below the surface. The photos shown represent a sample selection from this category.
