Myrtillocactus geometrizans cv. ‘Glorp’ is an extraordinary and rare cultivar that instantly captures attention with its surreal, sculptural form. Known for its irregular, almost melted-looking contours and smooth, blue-green skin, Myrtillocactus geometrizans ‘Glorp’ stands out as one of the most unusual and fascinating cacti available. Its contorted, bubbly shape gives it a distinctly alien or coral-like appearance, making it a true collector’s specimen and a talking point in any cactus or succulent display.
Native to Mexico, Myrtillocactus geometrizans is naturally a branching, columnar cactus, but the ‘Glorp’ cultivar displays a remarkable mutation that transforms its structure into something entirely unique. This variety grows slowly and prefers bright, sunny conditions, for example a windowsill, conservatory, or greenhouse is ideal. It should be grown in a well-draining cactus compost and watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. Overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot. During the winter months, reduce watering further when the plant enters dormancy.
With age, Myrtillocactus geometrizans‘Glorp’ develops even more character, forming new crests and folds that make each specimen truly one of a kind. In ideal conditions, it may even produce small, white flowers in spring or summer.
Perfect for garden centres and houseplant shops catering to collectors and enthusiasts, Myrtillocactus geometrizans cv. ‘Glorp’ offers customers a rare and highly decorative cactus with a wonderfully bizarre, almost sculptural beauty that brings an element of the extraordinary to any plant collection.
