Product Description

Vatricania guentheri is an intriguing columnar cactus native to Bolivia. It has a tall, cylindrical stem covered in dense, white, woolly hair, giving it a distinctive, aged appearance. The green body of the plant is segmented by deep ridges and decorated with clusters of yellowish spines. As the cactus matures, it produces a cephalium, a specialized structure covered in dense wool and bristles, from which large, tubular pink flowers emerge. Its unique woolly texture and imposing stature make Vatricania guentheri a striking addition to any cactus collection.
