Pachycereus marginatus aka Fencepost Cactus Live Cactus Growing in 6 Inch

Pachycereus marginatus, commonly known as the "Mexican Fencepost Cactus" is a striking and iconic cactus species native to Mexico. It is known for its distinctive appearance and upright growth habit, making it a popular choice among cactus enthusiasts and landscapers.
The Fencepost Cactus is characterized by its tall, columnar stems that can reach impressive heights, often exceeding 20 feet (6 meters) in its natural habitat. In cultivation, it typically grows to a more manageable size but can still reach several feet in height.
The stems are ribbed and feature prominent, raised ribs with sharp, downward-pointing spines along the edges of each rib. These spines are usually brown or grayish in color.
On mature plants, you may find clusters of small, white to pale yellow flowers that bloom during the warm months. These flowers are typically followed by small, reddish, or pinkish fruit that is edible but often quite seedy.
Provide Pachycereus marginatus with plenty of bright, direct sunlight. It thrives in full sun conditions and requires several hours of direct sunlight each day to maintain its health and shape.
This cactus prefers warm temperatures and is not frost-tolerant. Protect it from freezing conditions.
The Fencepost Cactus is a visually impressive and relatively low-maintenance cactus. It is often used as a focal point in cactus and succulent gardens and can add a touch of architectural interest to landscapes. Its tall, columnar stems create a striking silhouette and make it a standout choice for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.
