Cereus tetragonus 'Fairy Castle' Variegated
The Cereus tetragonus 'Fairy Castle' Variegated, also known as the Variegated Fairy Castle Cactus, is a captivating and unique cactus that is sure to add a touch of whimsy and color to any collection.
Appearance:
Shape: It grows in a columnar fashion, with multiple upright stems that branch and create a "castle-like" structure, hence its common name. The variegation adds an extra layer of visual interest, with creamy white or yellow stripes and patches contrasting against the green base color of the stems.
Size: This cactus can grow several feet tall indoors, and even taller outdoors in ideal conditions. Its size makes it a striking statement piece for any space.
Spines: The stems are adorned with clusters of small, sharp spines that provide a textured appearance.
Flowers: Under the right conditions, it may produce large, white, nocturnal flowers, adding a touch of elegance to its unique form.
Growth Habits and Care:
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade.
Soil: Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.
Watering: Water moderately during the growing season (spring and summer), allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
Additional Information:
The variegated form of Cereus tetragonus 'Fairy Castle' is relatively rare, making it a sought-after addition for collectors.
Its unique and whimsical appearance makes it a conversation starter and a favorite among cactus enthusiasts.
The first two photos serves a display purpose only. The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
