Cylindropuntia Imbricata - Opuntia Imbricata / Cereus Imbricatus: Sculptural Columnar Cactus
Cylindropuntia imbricata, also known as Opuntia imbricata or Cereus imbricatus, is a striking columnar cactus native to the arid and semi-arid regions of South America. Renowned for its tall, segmented stems adorned with clusters of golden spines, it presents a sculptural, architectural form that adds a bold, dramatic element to any plant collection or xeriscape garden.
At TOMs FLOWer CLUB, each Cylindropuntia imbricata is carefully propagated from our personal collection, ensuring a healthy, slow-growing specimen with a robust root system. Potted in a self-mixed, highly permeable organic substrate, the plant benefits from optimal drainage and aeration, supporting long-term vitality while maintaining its natural columnar structure.
