Myrtillocactus geometrizans cristata

15.00

This cactus is noted for its crested or fan-shaped growth, a result of fasciation, which causes the growing tip to form a flattened, ribbon-like shape instead of the typical cylindrical form. It has a blue-green hue, adding an attractive color contrast to cacti collections. The unique cresting is due to a genetic mutation or physical damage. This makes each specimen unique.

Plant will be sent bare rooted.

Photographed in 7x7cm pot.
