Cereus peruvianus spiralis (Spiral Cactus)

A rare architectural cactus prized for its striking, corkscrew-like columns. These cuttings are perfect for collectors or anyone looking for a centerpiece plant with dramatic form.

Growth Habit: Columnar, spiraling Bloom Season: Summer (night-blooming) Dormancy: Winter Sun Exposure: Full sun to partial sun Soil Needs: Fast-draining cactus mix Hardiness Zones: 9–11 (not frost hardy) Native To: South America
What you’ll receive:

One unrooted cutting of Cereus peruvianus spiralis, approximately 24” long. We only have 3 available, so these won’t last long.

With its twisting, spiral columns, this cactus brings sculptural elegance to any collection or landscape. Mature plants can grow tall and produce large, fragrant, night-blooming flowers that attract pollinators. As a cutting, it’s easy to root and rewarding to grow, making it a perfect choice for both collectors and adventurous beginners.

After Arrival

Carefully unpack your cactus cutting as soon as it arrives. Don’t be alarmed if the base looks dry—that’s completely normal. Allow the cutting to callous in a dry, shaded spot for 1–2 weeks before planting. Avoid watering during this period, as moisture too soon can cause rot.

Transplant Tips

When ready to plant, place the calloused cutting into a pot with fast-draining cactus soil. We recommend a gritty blend with pumice, perlite, coarse sand, or crushed granite, mixed with a small amount of organic matter. Ensure the pot has a drainage hole. Water lightly after 1–2 weeks, then allow soil to fully dry between waterings.

Watering
Water sparingly. Wait until soil is completely dry, then water deeply. Reduce watering during winter dormancy.

Soil and Pots
Use a gritty, fast-draining cactus mix. Include plenty of inorganic material such as pumice, perlite, coarse sand, or granite. Always pot in a container with a drainage hole.
