Description:
Polaskia chichipe can be crested and can reach a maximum of 2 meters in height. Its fan-shaped stem is green, with gray spines, that become darker over time. There are different crested forms, some specimens form stable crests, others instead cluster on top of each other. The nocturnal flowering occurs in the spring/summer period, blooming with cream-white or yellow-green flowers, from which spherical red berries are born.

Plant care:
It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.
It prefers rather mild temperatures, however it still survives even at temperatures close to freezing if the soil is dry.
Water regularly on a weekly basis in spring-summer, always making sure that the soil is always dry between one watering and another one, avoiding stagnation of water. During the winter period, suspend watering.
A soil suitable for cacti is an optimal solution, even better if further mixed with pumice.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
