About this clone

Totem Pole cactus is known for smooth, sculptural columnar growth with greatly reduced spines. Its irregular surface and changing contours make it easy to recognize even before it reaches a large size.

Why it's in my collection

This is one of those cacti that becomes more impressive with age. I want this page to eventually show young plants beside larger specimens so visitors can see how the form develops and what to expect from a cutting or small plant.
