About this Cactus:

• Appearance: A fast-growing, columnar cactus native to the high altitudes of the Andes Mountains. Known for its tall, slender green stems, which typically have 6 to 8 ribs and small spines.
• Blooms: In summer, it can produce large, showy, and very fragrant white flowers that open at night and last for only one to two days.
• Hardiness: A tough, adaptable plant that can handle a wider variance in temperature and rainfall than many other cacti. Thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, though it appreciates more frequent watering during the peak growing season compared to desert-dwelling species.
