Description:

The monstrous shape of a cactaceae has anomalies, for example asymmetries in the stem, diversity of the thorns or particular protuberances that make that exemplar absolutely unique and never identical to others, for this extremely sought after by true connoisseurs. In its normal form it is a cactus plant much sought after and appreciated by collectors, in its natural habitat it grows mainly in rocky coastal areas. Its opaque green stem tending to greyish, has a slightly concave cylindrical shape at the apex, with well defined and slightly tuberculate thick ribs, along which there are small downy areolas and roundish yellowish in color. The spines are very long and robust, with a brownish yellow color that tends to gray with age. The flowering takes place in spring-summer and generates bell-shaped flowers with a glossy yellow color.

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. Suspend watering in spring and summer.

A well draining soil is an optimal solution, for example formed by a mix of peat and more than 50% of pumice and lapilli so that water does not stagnate.

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