Pilosocereus pachycladus

This Brazilian cactus has a lovely silvery-blue sheen, from which it gets the common name “Blue Torch Cactus”. This cactus is a slow grower, forming a multi-branched candelabra of 10 meters - or even taller - in optimal conditions. Once mature, Pilocereus pachycladus will produce thick, hairy tufts from which white and yellow flowers will emerge on summer nights.

Watering

In summer water thoroughly only when 100% of the soil has dried out. A/W refrain from watering. In spring gradually increase watering - depending on temperature and light exposure.

Light requirements

Full sun.

Feed

Use a cactus fertiliser 3-4 times from April - September.

Repotting

Repot every 2-3 years to replenish the nutrients within the soil.
