Description

The Trichocereus bridgesii Monstrous commonly known as the Penis Cactus is a rare and sought-after mutated columnar cactus. Featuring smooth, segmented, irregularly shaped stems, this unique variety is known for its sculptural appearance. A great conversation starter for obvious reasons! 

Please note: We offer both cuttings (unrooted pieces that will root over time) and bare-root plants (already rooted, but shipped without soil or pot). Some plants may have minor scars, which are totally normal. Any discoloration at the base especially on rooted plants is from previous healthy growth in soil and is not a sign of damage. Every plant is hand-picked and guaranteed to arrive healthy.

Disclaimer: This product, Monstrose Bolivian Torch Cactus 'Penis Cactus' Short Form, is intended for ornamental use only. Handle with care, as spines may cause injury. We make no medicinal claims. Shipping restrictions apply; review our policy for details. Returns of live plants are case-specific; please refer to our return policy.

Cold Weather Warning

If your area drops below 40°F during the colder months, we highly recommend adding a heat pack to your order, as we don’t automatically include one. This helps keep your plants safe in transit. 🌡️❄️

Cactus Care & FAQs

After Arrival
Carefully unpack your cactus as soon as it arrives.

If it’s a cutting, don’t be alarmed if the base looks dry, that’s completely normal. Cuttings are fresh segments taken from mature plants that don’t yet have roots. They need time to callous over, so let them rest in a dry, shaded spot for a few weeks before planting in cactus soil. Avoid watering during this period, as moisture too soon can lead to rot.

If you received a rooted plant, it already has a developed root system and can be potted right away. Once planted, wait about a week before giving it a light watering to help it settle into its new environment.

Sunlight Introduction
Start it in bright, indirect light for a few days before moving it to full sun.

Light
Outdoors, it thrives in full sun. Indoors, place it near a sunny window that gets at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight.

Watering
Water deeply using the soak-and-dry method, and let the soil dry out completely between waterings. In winter, reduce watering significantly.

Soil & Pots
Use a gritty cactus mix and a pot with drainage. Terracotta pots are ideal.

Growth & Repotting
This cactus grows slowly, often staying compact. Repot every 2–3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Wait about a week after repotting before watering.

FAQ

How often do I water it?
Only when the soil is completely dry. In warm months, every 1–2 weeks; in cooler months, about once a month.

Can I keep it indoors year-round?
Yes, just make sure it gets enough direct sun. A south- or west-facing window is ideal.

Will it flower?
It can bloom with large, white, night-opening flowers, but this is rare and typically happens only in mature outdoor plants.

Do I need to fertilize?
It’s not necessary, but you can feed it in spring or summer with cactus fertilizer at half strength.

SO generous!

I believe ordered a one node TBM short form cutting for Takashi’s birthday sale. I have been eyeing bigger pieces but I’d been putting money towards other things at home and just wanted to buy a little something to contribute to his sales on his birthday. When I checked out, I was offered 50% off more cactus. I said what the heck and ordered a 5 node rooted plant since it was such a good deal. Well imagine my surprise when a 12 node plant shows up!! I’m overjoyed, thank you so much to whoever decided to give me this. I cannot wait to pot her! So excited to add her outside with my dragon fruits.
