Description:
The crested form of this cactus has the typical fan shape, sometimes not continuous but jagged into several narrow and flat segments, never equal from one plant to another. This uniqueness makes the plant so sought after and loved by collectors. Also called Austrocylindropuntia subulata, in its normal form it is a shrubby plant with columnar posture. It has a bright green stem with big tubercles on which we can notice small and woolly white areoles with small and pale thorns.

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 3 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.
Water moderately and only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce it to once every two months in autumn and to suspend it 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.
