4" Cactus

Blue Torch Cactus (Pilosocereus azureus)
The Blue Torch Cactus is a stunning columnar cactus known for its striking blue-green skin and golden-yellow spines. Its upright, tree-like growth makes it an architectural showpiece, whether kept as a potted specimen indoors or grown outdoors in warm climates. Over time, mature plants may branch and produce spectacular white night-blooming flowers.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Needs full sun or very bright light to keep its bold blue color; place in the sunniest window indoors or outside in summer
💧 Water: Very drought tolerant; water deeply, then allow soil to dry completely before watering again
🌫 Humidity: Thrives in dry air; avoid humid environments
❄️ Temperature: Prefers warmth (65–90°F); protect from frost and keep above 55°F indoors
🐾 Pet Friendly: No (spines are sharp, and plant tissue may be toxic if ingested)

Fun Fact: The Blue Torch Cactus is native to Brazil, where it can grow over 30 feet tall in the wild. Indoors, it stays much smaller but keeps its dazzling blue color, making it a favorite among cactus collectors. 🌵✨
