Description:
It is one of the fastest growing species in the entire genus, consisting of stems that can become woody and reach, in the wild, up to 3 meters in height! Each stem has a particular pentagonal section, sometimes with spiral growth, of a beautiful, extremely bright and shiny emerald green. The skin is enriched with small pointed tubercles, which end in microscopic red-coppery thorns. During the vegetative season the charm of this extravagant specimen is accentuated when, at the top of the stem, large obovate leaves begin to grow, rather long, with wavy margins and clearer visible veins. It is a succulent that contains all the best peculiarities of the world of succulents!

Plant care:
It likes very bright places, however, avoid direct sunlight during the hottest hours of the day. It prefers environments with low humidity.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 15 °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.
A well-draining soil is an optimal solution, even better if further enriched with 50% or more of inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.
