Austrocylindropuntia subulata monstrosa – small rarity with great effect
The unusual growth of Austrocylindropuntia subulata monstrosa makes this mini cactus a real collector's item. Its upright, branched shoots grow in irregular shapes, giving each plant a unique, almost sculptural character. The dot-like spination is finer than that of many prickly pears and ensures an interesting, yet living room-suitable appearance.
With its compact size, the Upright Prickly Pear Cactus is perfect for window sills, desks, mini arrangements or creative succulent worlds. It is extremely easy to care for and does extremely well with little water and lots of light - ideal for beginners and lovers of unusual plants.
