Pilosocereus royenii – large

Description

Large plants 17″-22″.  This year I am excited and proud to bring the Royen’s tree cactus – Pilosocereus royenii – into cultivation on a substantial scale for the first time. Known as “sebucán” in Puerto Rico, it is a Caribbean dry forest cactus that branches and can reach 24ft tall. Royen’s tree cactus is a hardy and underutilized columnar cactus of striking and mysterious beauty, featuring dark pine-green waxy skin, white wooly tips and evening blooms the color of beach sunsets at maturity. It thrives in central and south Florida gardens with a well-drained mix of organic cactus soil. If you are interested in wholesale purchase of a quantity of these or other plants from Cactus Island, please give me a call and I’ll be happy to answer your questions, set up a time to visit or put together an order. Cactus Island is a licensed Florida nursery and can ship to the lower 48 except California – – No California sales due to rigorous and expensive nematode certification requirements for Florida growers.
