A small but very interesting genus of most unusual Cacti with stout, Carrot-like roots, and rounded, flat, greyish-green bodies composed of triangular tubercles, giving them the vague appearance of dried out Agaves made of granite – indeed in their natural, stony habitat, the plants are very difficult to find. Eventually they produce coronets of attractive flowers.
