Product Description

Arrojadoa reflexa TU78 is a locality-specific form of the elegant Brazilian columnar cactus, known for its slender, upright stems and repeated blooming habit. Native to Bahia, Brazil, this form grows on rocky outcrops and is recognized by its narrow ribs, bristly spines, and formation of apical cephalia—woolly flowering zones from which stunning magenta tubular flowers emerge. TU78 is especially admired for its compact growth and reliable flowering, making it ideal for collectors of rare Arrojadoa varieties.
