Acanthocalycium glaucum *Smallest Blue Cactus* Cactus often covered in old scalesAcanthocalycium glaucum An unusual small bluish species with yellow flowers. The plant clumps readily and stays small. It is the smallest blue skin cactus I am aware of, which makes it great for people with limited space. Most others are large columnar plants.
