Description:
It is a very special and rare cactus, which is why it is highly appreciated by green collectors from all over the world. As it grows, it forms a fan or sometimes a couple of fans, tangled on each other. Its green stem is covered with a few short gray spines. With exposure to the direct sun, the arch of the crest takes on a purple color. It can reach up to 3 m in height, if grown in mild areas. Thanks to its sculptural shape, it is perfect for decorating interior spaces and making beautiful modern and design plant compositions.

Plant care:
It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.
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 the plant once a week in spring and summer, and suspend watering completely in winter.
The best soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
