Description:
It is an extremely peculiar plant, which at first sight might resemble a succulent but which actually belongs to the Cactaceae family. It grows like a shrub with a slender stem, which in the wild can reach up to 6 meters in height, branching abundantly and enriching itself with ovoid leaves, pointed at the tips, of a beautiful bright green adorned with veins on the upper surface. Along the stem, and mainly at the top of the cactus, sturdy, wide and reddish spines emerge, which create a perfect contrast with the foliage making this plant absolutely unique and pleasantly ornamental especially when, in spring, bright pink or purple flowers bloom.

Plant care:
It requires a lot of brightness during all seasons and rather airy places.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 12 °C, in order to avoid it losing the leaves. Otherwise the plant will enter dormancy and lose its leaves.
Water regularly but moderately in spring-summer, always making sure that the soil is always dry between one watering and another one. During the winter period, reduce watering to once every two months, avoiding stagnation of water.
A well-draining soil is an optimal solution, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice or lapilli.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
