Summary[edit]

Description

Mammillaria zeilmanniana is a species of plant in the Cactaceae family. It is endemic to Mexico, where its natural habitat is hot deserts.

It originates from San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato state, central Mexico. Until 1988 Mammillaria zeilmanniana had never been found in its natural habitat by anyone else since its original discovery in the late 1920's by Erich Georgi of Saltillo, a collector and exporter of exotic plants. It was then re-discovered after a long search in a canyon complex west of San Miguel de Allende in Mexico thriving in an isolated micro-environment.

Synonyms include - Mammillaria crinita ssp. zeilmanniana. (Boed.) C.E.Glass Mammillaria crinita f. zeilmanniana Neomammillaria zeilmanniana Chilita zeilmanniana Ebnerella zeilmanniana

Part of the private collection of cacti and succulents at Manor Nursery, Angmering, West Sussex. The collection is open to the public during normal garden centre hours.
