Mammillaria cactus are predominately native to Mexico where the latin derived word describes 'nipple' or 'teat' shaped tubercles. Interestingly, the spines of cactus Mammillaria are arranged according to the Fibonacci sequence.
Mammillarias appreciate intense light, but many species dislike direct summer sun for too long. Plant them in an area of your garden that receives 4 hours of direct sunlight a day. If you are growing yours indoors, place them near the brightest window in your home or office to ensure they get enough light. If possible, place the pots on the balcony or in the garden for extra light from spring to fall. Increase sun exposure gradually to prevent sunburn.
