Pachycereus marginatus (Stenocereus marginatus)

Mexican Fence Post Cactus

A bold and dramatic accent plant. The petite spines follow the ribs giving it a clean look and accentuating its vertical habit. This cactus needs room to grow if in the ground, but can also be raised in a pot. Width can be controlled through removal of new growth at base.

  • Slender finger like spiny stems
  • Columnar habit
