Spinevine

This modest-sized cactus grows up to 61 feet (18.6 meters) tall. The wispy stem is red, and is covered in lots of flexible green spines.

It is steady-growing, taking 14 months to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a handful of flowers, with alternating petals of vibrant green and azure, with a violet central disk, grow at the top, reappearing after 10 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is shaped like a cup with 35 tightly layered, narrow petals. It has a soft scent that smells like cheese.

The cactus's skin is delicate, the gold flesh is rough, and the blue sap is thin.
