S	dentate	Frank Süpplie in The Cactus Explorer (27) page 15-16, 2022; Registration	the small phylloclades are dark green-grey, with on average three forward-facing dentations along each margin toward the apex. The plant overall has an upright growth habit. This variety is a sister plant of 'A.J.S. McMillan', but with a more compact growth. Its stem segments are smaller, and the flower color is much darker than that of 'A.J.S. McMillan'.
