Trichocereus Bridgesii Monstrose 'Penis Cactus'

The Penis Cactus (Trichocereus bridgesii monstrose) is a unique and striking variety of cactus native to the high-altitude regions of Bolivia and Peru. Known for its unusual, ribbed appearance, the plant grows in a columnar form, typically reaching up to 6 feet (1.8 meters) tall. Its name, "Penis Cactus," comes from its distinct shape, which resembles the human form in some instances, though this is a natural deformity and not a consistent characteristic. The cactus has fleshy, green to bluish-green stems with prominent, twisting ribs and occasional spines, making it a popular and intriguing specimen among collectors. It produces large, white flowers during the summer, and it thrives in well-draining soil with ample sunlight. Though relatively slow-growing, the Trichocereus bridgesii monstrose is resilient and can live for many years, often becoming a focal point in desert or succulent gardens. Its unusual appearance and hardiness make it a prized plant for enthusiasts of rare and exotic cacti.
