Product Description
Lophocereus schottii monstrose
This rare, slow-growing cactus from the deserts of Mexico is famed for its unique form, versatility, and low-maintenance nature. It has wavy, textured columnar stems that almost appear to be adorned with faces, resembling true totem poles. Its spineless, smooth skin makes it a safe option for any space.
Bright indirect or direct light.
Pro-tip: In the winter, cut back waterings to once every month, allowing the soil to stay completely dry for at least a couple weeks.
Please note that this cactus is a cutting, sold bare-root. Not sure how to pot? Check out our cactus potting guide here.
