Product Description
Pilosocereus magnificus (HU224) is a spectacular columnar cactus that commands attention with its powdery blue epidermis, silver ribs, and contrasting golden spines. This particular HU224 form, originally collected from a select habitat in Brazil, exhibits especially vivid coloration and symmetrical structure. Its upright columns are thick and sturdy, making it a dramatic centerpiece in any arid garden or rare cactus collection.
As it matures, Pilosocereus magnificus (HU224) develops pronounced, sculpted ribs edged with clusters of short, amber to copper-colored spines. The bluish-grey stem surface has a matte, almost chalky texture that intensifies under bright sunlight. These features create a vivid contrast that becomes even more striking in juvenile plants grown from seed. Seedlings may also show slight variation, making each specimen subtly unique.
