Cereus pasacana

Cereus pasacana, commonly known as the Pasacana or Giant Cardon, is a large columnar cactus species native to South America. This impressive cactus is characterized by its massive size, often reaching heights of over 30 feet. Its blue-green stems, adorned with numerous ribs and areoles, create a striking visual impact. The nocturnal, white flowers of Cereus pasacana are followed by edible, spiny fruits that are a traditional food source for local communities.
