Rebutia is a genus of small, typically barrel-shaped cacti, native to Bolivia and Argentina. Plants bear large, free-flowering blooms in a range of bright colours.

Rebutia ‘Amber’ is a hybrid rebutia, with a spiny, barrel-shaped stem and large, star-shaped orange-red blooms.

For best results grow Rebutia ‘Amber’ in cactus compost in a container, in bright light. It's ideally grown as a houseplant but may be taken on to a sunny patio in summer. Water sparingly during the growing season, and feed once a month. Stop watering in autumn.
