Pilosocereus chrysostele 3g

The Pilosocereus chrysostele is a stunning columnar cactus known for its upright, ribbed stems covered in golden-yellow spines and fine, hair-like bristles that give it a glowing appearance. Over time, it can grow into an impressive specimen, reaching 10–20 feet tall and several feet wide, making it a striking focal point in desert-style gardens or large containers. This cactus thrives in full sun with well-draining soil and requires very little water, making it ideal for xeriscaping and low-maintenance landscapes. During the warm months, it may produce large, creamy white, night-blooming flowers that add to its unique charm and can be followed by colorful fruit. Its bold, architectural form and golden highlights make it highly sought after by collectors and cactus enthusiasts. Perfect for sunny, dry climates, the Pilosocereus chrysostele is both ornamental and resilient. USDA Hardiness Zones 9–11.
