Lophocereus schottii monstrose (Totem Pole Cactus)
This is a very interesting, easy and slow-growing monstrose of Lophocereus schottii. It is also known as Lophocereus schottii f. mieckleyanus.
It gets it's common name "Totem Pole Cactus" from the multiple lumps protruding all over the cactus, giving the illusion of faces carved into the plant.
We have a small amount of these rare and fascinating cactus. They come rooted in pots and are about 18-inches tall. Do not handle them with bare hands. Any part of the cactus that gets oils from your skin will quickly turn black and hard.
