Cactus Cereus repandus cv. Florida, also known as the Peruvian Apple Cactus or Florida Apple Cactus, is a striking, low-maintenance addition to any garden or indoor plant collection. With its tall, columnar structure, this cactus grows in a bold, upright fashion, showcasing a distinctive blue-green color. Its ribbed surface adds an eye-catching texture, while small clusters of spines accentuate its edges, giving it a classic desert look with a modern twist.

In late summer, these blooms are often followed by edible, pinkish-red fruits that resemble small apples, giving this variety its common name. These fruits have a mild, refreshing flavor and a juicy texture, making them not only decorative but also a tasty treat. Ideal for both novice and experienced gardeners, Cereus repandus cv. Florida thrives in bright sunlight and well-draining soil, tolerating drought conditions with ease. This cactus is perfect for adding vertical interest to rock gardens, xeriscapes, or as an indoor accent in a sunny spot, bringing a piece of the desert’s beauty to your space.
