Cipocereus is a distinctive genus of tall, columnar cacti native to South America, known for its slender, ribbed stems and striking, fragrant night-blooming flowers that often appear in shades of white or yellow. These resilient plants typically grow in desert or rocky environments, adding vertical drama to gardens and landscapes. An interesting fact is that Cipocereus species are highly drought-tolerant and produce spectacular, large flowers that can captivate with their fragrance and beauty during their blooming season.
