Lophophora fricii Seeds
(Fric’s Peyote)

Lophophora fricii is a rare and captivating species within the Lophophora genus, native to the semi-desert regions of northeastern Mexico. Known for its pale, pinkish-green to bluish-gray body and its distinctive, almost wavy ribs, this species stands out with a unique beauty. It produces stunning pink to magenta flowers and is highly prized among collectors for its rarity, form, and subtle coloration.

Unlike Lophophora williamsii, L. fricii has a slightly different alkaloid profile and is mainly sought after for ornamental and botanical purposes. Its slow-growing nature and compact size make it an excellent addition to any succulent or cactus collection, especially for those who appreciate rare, slow-growing species.

Features:

• Authentic Lophophora fricii seeds
• Rare and visually distinct species with soft, rounded tubercles
• Produces vibrant pink to magenta flowers
• Perfect for cactus collectors, ethnobotanical gardens, and enthusiasts of rare plants

Germination Tips:

1. Soil Mix: Use a well-draining, sterilized cactus mix with perlite or pumice and fine sand.
2. Sowing: Gently press seeds onto the surface of moist soil. Do not bury—exposure to light supports germination.
3. Humidity & Light: Cover with clear plastic or a humidity dome. Place in bright, indirect light or under grow lights.
4. Temperature: Keep between 22–28°C (72–82°F) for optimal germination.
5. Watering: Mist the surface to keep it moist but never soggy. Avoid waterlogging.
6. Timeframe: Germination typically occurs within 1–4 weeks. Be patient—Lophophora species are slow to start but well worth the wait.

Add a truly rare gem to your collection with Lophophora fricii, a plant that rewards patience with striking form and color.
