Description:

Also often called "Cardón", "Cone Cactus", "Wax Cactus", "Golden-Spined Saguaro" and "Golden Saguaro". Its green stem can reach up to 12 m in height. It can be rarely seen branched, so when it happens, you can admire its beautiful candlestick bearing. The term "polylopha" derives from Latin and means "many coasts", in fact its main feature is the presence of many coasts, narrow and located close to each other. Its spines look a lot like bristles: they are yellow and thin. Its diurnal flowers are red outside and pink inside.

Plant care:

It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer, suspend watering completely in autumn and winter.

The best soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
