Copperactus

This short cactus grows up to 12 feet (3.7 meters) tall. It splits at the base to form 6 fan-like stems. Each stem is yellow-green, and is covered in many rigid brown spines. The spherical body is copper, and is covered in many rigid gentle green spines.

It is steady-growing, taking 3 years to reach maturity. Once mature, a single flower with alternating petals of brown and black, with a sky blue central disk grows at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is made up of 34 petals; the lower layer of petals are flat, while the upper layers form a tight star. It has an overpowering scent that smells like blood.

The cactus's skin is extremely thick, the blue flesh is slimy, and the drab red sap is thin.
