Lophophora Williamsii v. Caespitosa

Lophophora Williamsii v. Caespitosa

This clumping variety of peyote is said to be the same as true Lophophora Williamsii. We notice however that people are advertising seeds of caespitosa so we are not clear on this. What we can say is that these plants are typically slower to flower than single peyote despite the fact that they grow quicker. The main plant of this clump is free flowering.

 Number of heads: over 60 at last count

• Size: largest 4cm (has flowered)
• Total size of clump: 7 x 7cm.

Slow grown from seed in the UK.Image is of actual lophophora williamsii caespitosa you are buying. Photo taken April 2011- plant not yet fully plump after winter dormancy. We do not water from October to March- this promotes flowering and prevents plants rotting in winter.
