Cereus Monstrose 100mm

Cereus Monstrose, also known as Monstrose Apple Cactus, is a unique and eye-catching cactus variety prized for its unusual, contorted growth patterns. Unlike standard columnar cacti, this variety produces irregular, knobby stems that create a sculptural and dramatic look—perfect for collectors or as a statement piece in modern gardens and indoor displays.

Key Features & Characteristics:

• Distinctive twisted, irregular stems for a one-of-a-kind appearance.

• Produces large, white, fragrant night-blooming flowers in mature plants.

• Can grow up to 1–2 m tall in pots and even taller in the ground.

• Extremely drought-tolerant and easy to maintain.

• Adds architectural interest to xeriscapes, rock gardens, or patios.

Care Tips:

• Place in full sun to partial shade with well-draining cactus soil.

• Water sparingly—allow soil to dry out completely between waterings.

• Protect from frost and extreme cold; ideal for USDA zones 9–11 or as a container plant indoors.

• Fertilize lightly during the growing season for healthy growth.
