The Blue Torch Cactus, also known as Pilosocereus pachycladus, is a striking specimen renowned for its vibrant blue-green stems. This columnar cactus adds a touch of architectural beauty to any collection, growing tall and proud with a distinctive silhouette that commands attention. Its dense covering of areoles sprouts golden spines, providing a stunning contrast against the blue hues of its flesh.

Thriving in bright, direct light, the Blue Torch Cactus is a testament to the beauty and resilience of desert plants. It prefers a well-draining soil mix, typical of cacti, and requires minimal watering, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a low-maintenance yet visually captivating plant.

As it matures, the Blue Torch Cactus can produce nocturnal, white flowers that emit a delightful fragrance, adding an extra layer of appeal to this already charismatic plant. These blooms are a rare sight, making them all the more special when they appear.

The plant pictured serves as an example of the quality and appearance of the Blue Torch Cactus you will receive. We ensure each cactus is carefully selected to bring the best of its characteristics to your home, ready to grow and enhance your space with its unique beauty.

Shipping

This plant will be sent in its plastic growing pot

We only ship plants on Mondays. Please order before 2pm on Sunday to ensure your plant will be sent the following Monday. Orders placed after this time MIGHT not be shipped untill the following week.

We only ship plants to non-quarantine states (sorry sorry WA, TAS and NT residents). Shipping of plants is capped at $18.00 per order. This includes the packing materials and labour times. We use recycled packing where possible to reduce our waste and keep cost down, but we ensure that all packing material is sturdy enough to resist damage during transit.

If no one is home to receive your order, the parcel will be left in a safe place. We will not request signature on delivery, as parcels sent back to the post office may not get picked up for days, therefore increasing the amount of stress placed on the plant(s) inside.

This plant can also be picked up from the Northern Wellbeing Centre; 113C miller st, Epping VIC. If you select this option at check-out, we will email you to organise a pick-up time.
