This unique cactus, native to Bolivia, is a must-have for any enthusiast, boasting a fascinating crested growth form, wooly white spines, and stunning red blooms.

Trailing Beauty: The crested stems still maintain a trailing or cascading habit, making it a stunning addition to hanging baskets or elevated planters.
Wooly White Spines: The stems are covered in fine, wooly white spines, giving the plant a soft, fuzzy appearance.
Vibrant Blooms: In the spring and summer months, this cactus produces a profusion of bright red, tubular flowers that emerge from the sides of the stems.
Easy Care:
Sunlight: Provide plenty of bright, direct sunlight.
Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix.
