Description:

It is a slow-growing cactus with a solitary habit. Its green stem, initially globular, can develop into a columnar shape with a height of over two meters. With age, it can develop over forty well-marked and slightly wavy ribs along the crest, giving the plant a spiral shape. From the areoles, that frame the ribs, short, hooked and robust spines grow, which are of a brownish-gray color. It blooms with funnel-shaped flowers of a bright yellow color, that form some sort of a ring at the apex of the stem.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sun rays, especially during the hottest hours of the day, as long as they might burn the leaves.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 6 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce watering to once every two months in autumn, and to suspend it completely in winter.

The best one is a very well-draining soil specific for cacti.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
