Bronze

Succulent type: Stem succulent (Stores water in its stem)

This small cactus grows up to 9 feet (2.7 meters) tall. The spear shaped stem is gray, and is covered in thousands of flexible light red spines. The spherical body is lime green, and is covered in brittle bronze spines.

It is steady-growing, taking 22 months to reach maturity. Once mature, a single flower with petals that are generally brilliant green; each flower tends to be a variation of this colour grows at the top, reappearing once every 7 years. The flower head is shaped like a trumpet with 12 widely spaced, round-tipped petals. It has a scent whose strength depends on external factors, such as soil quality and rain frequency that smells like candle wax.

The cactus's skin is nearly impenetrable, the red flesh is rough, and the blood red sap is thin.


It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
