Native to South America, this impressive specimen is a must-have for any plant enthusiast seeking an unconventional addition to their indoor or outdoor space.

Features:

  • Unique Monstrose Form: The most striking feature of this cactus is its monstrous growth, resulting in fascinating and unpredictable shapes with irregular ribs and tubercles.

  • Columnar Structure: While the growth is unpredictable, the stems generally grow upright, reaching impressive heights, making it a dramatic focal point in a landscape or a statement piece indoors.

  • Blue-Green Stems: The stems boast a beautiful blue-green hue, often covered with a waxy bloom, adding to its unique appeal.

  • Showy Blooms: In mature specimens, large, fragrant, white, nocturnal flowers can emerge, adding a touch of magic to the plant's appearance.

  • Easy Care: This drought-tolerant succulent thrives in well-draining soil with minimal watering, making it suitable for even beginner gardeners.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade.

  • Water: Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water less frequently in winter.

  • Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix.

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.
