Beautiful exemplar of cactaceae with a monstrous shape, characteristic that makes it unique in its kind and for this reason strongly sought after by collectors. T. santiaguensis f. monstrous is also known by the name of 'Green Pepperoni Cactus' due to its unusual appearance similar to that of a green pepper. It expands by tufting at the base. It has columnar and cluster-shaped stems, equipped with ribs and bright green color with sparse honey-colored thorns, positioned at the base.

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, only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer, once a month in autumn and to suspend watering completely in winter.

The best option is a soil suitable for cacti, even better if further mixed with pumice or lapilli.

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