Product Description

The Stenocactus phyllacanthus ‘Super Spines’ is a captivating cactus species known for its remarkable super-long spines and dramatic appearance. Its globular to slightly cylindrical body is marked by numerous deep ribs, which create a distinctive wavy pattern across the plant. The spines are the plant’s standout feature—long, rigid, and often twisted, they give the cactus a fierce, architectural look. The plant’s color ranges from blue-green to grayish, providing a striking contrast with the spines. During spring and summer, this Stenocactus produces small, vibrant pink or white flowers that emerge from the crown, adding a soft touch to its rugged form.
