Cereus Chiloensis Var. Linnaei

Candelabra cactus, scientifically known as Cereus chiloensis var. linnaei, is a striking plant native to the coastal regions of South America. It is characterized by its tall, branching stems that resemble a candlestick, hence its common name. This species thrives in arid and semi-arid environments, making it well-suited for xerophytic gardens. Its ability to store water in its fleshy stems allows it to survive in harsh conditions with minimal care. The plant is not only ornamental but also holds cultural significance in its native habitats.
