6" Cereus Repandus Monstrose

Cereus repandus f. monstrose (Monstrose Apple Cactus)
The Cereus repandus Monstrose is a fascinating, sculptural cactus with twisted, irregular growth that gives it a one-of-a-kind appearance. Instead of the tall, straight columns of a standard Cereus, the monstrose form develops knobby, spiraling, or “bumpy” stems that look almost otherworldly. It’s a true collector’s plant and a living piece of desert art.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Full sun is ideal; place in the brightest window indoors or outdoors in summer
💧 Water: Very drought tolerant—water deeply, then allow soil to dry out completely before watering again
🌫 Humidity: Thrives in dry air; no need for added humidity
❄️ Temperature: Keep warm and protect from frost; prefers above 55°F
🐾 Pet Friendly: Yes

Fun Fact: The “monstrose” growth pattern occurs due to a natural genetic mutation. No two plants grow alike, which makes each Cereus repandus Monstrose completely unique. 🌵
