Pilocereus gounellei is a compact, shrub-like cactus with multiple branches growing from its trunk. It features opaque spines that range in colour from golden and reddish-brown to grey, and produces beautiful funnel-shaped white flowers measuring around 4–9 cm long.
This small, branching species is ideal for pots and compact garden spaces. It also makes an attractive companion plant alongside both large and small cacti in a garden setting.
