Description
"FUKURYU" is a Japanese word that means presence of additional ribs (coasts). This plant will develop protuberances (like beginnings of ribs) or small extra ribs (more or less prominent ). Usually these additional ribs will not reach the plant apex. They don't havet areoles, and they develop on the lateral side, sandwiched between two contiguous true ribs.
