White Foxtail Cactus (Cleistocactus colademononis)

The White Foxtail Cactus is a show-stopping species with long, trailing stems covered in soft, silvery hairs. The cascading growth can reach several feet, making it perfect for a hanging basket or a tall container where its fuzzy stems can drape over the pot’s edge. In spring and summer, mature plants produce vivid red tubular flowers that contrast beautifully with the silky stems. Native to Bolivia, this cactus thrives in bright light, requires little water, and appreciates a well-draining soil mix. Easy to grow yet rare in cultivation, it’s a collector’s favorite for its striking display.
