Introducing the stunning Blue Torch Cactus, also known as Pilosocereus pachycladus, Facheiro cactus or Pilosocereus azureus (a 'dated' synonymy). This unique and beautiful plant is a member of the Pilocereus Genus and is native to various regions of South America.

Pilosocereus pachycladus is a stunning columnar cactus that grows in a huddle. It is renowned for its striking blue-green skin, which is one of the bluest of all columnar cacti, making it a highly coveted addition to any collection of exotic plants.

This beauty thrives in a sunny position with 3 to 6 hours of direct morning or afternoon sun. During the summer months, it should be watered regularly, while in the winter, it should be kept drier to maintain its health and vitality.

Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, the Blue Torch Cactus is sure to make a statement and be a wonderful addition to your collection.
