Cereus forbesii monstrose 'Ming Thing' PA46

It’s a monstrose (monster) form of Cereus forbesii (aka C. validus), meaning that it exhibits naturally occurring mutant growth, in the form of sculptural club-like shapes. Woolly areoles and short black spines appear on top of these myriad bizarro stems, which kind of resemble rounded, clenched fists. Ming thing is excellent for windowsill or dish garden culture. While people tend to think of cacti as sun lovers, this mutant variety is thrilled to bask in shade or filtered light. Prefers warmer temperatures during cold winter months.
