Product Description

The Cereus chiloensis var. zizkaanus BLACK SPINES is an impressive cactus native to the arid regions of Chile. This species features tall, columnar stems that are a vibrant green to bluish-green, often growing in dense clusters. The standout feature of this variety is its striking black spines, which are long, stout, and sharply pointed, creating a dramatic contrast against the green stems. The ribs are well-defined with prominent tubercles. In summer, it produces large, nocturnal white flowers that bloom from the sides of the stems, adding a touch of elegance to its rugged appearance.
