Description:

The shape of this plant recalls a coral, thanks to its wavy greenish stem, which with the prolonged exposure to the sun takes on a beautiful purple color. Along the crest there are small spines, covered with a white down. The crested form hardly blooms, however the flower can bloom from non-crested stems. The large flowers, more than 10 cm long, open up at night. Synonym: Cereus spegazzinii f. cristatus monstruosus.

Plant care:

It prefers a bright location avoiding direct sunlight. It is excellent the morning sunlight, until 12.00 / 13.00.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °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.

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.
