Crimson Spire

This short cactus grows up to 12 feet (3.7 meters) tall. It splits near the top to form 6 wispy stems. Each stem is red, and is dotted with small hazel spines.

It is very fast growing, taking 3 months to reach maturity. Once mature, several flowers with florescent purple petals on the lower layer and violet petals decorated with gold dots on the inner layer. The central disk is green grow at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is largely flat with many tightly layered round-tipped petals. It has a faint scent that smells like petrol.

The cactus's skin is rock-hard, the hazel flesh is rough, and the black sap is thin.
