DESCRIPTION
The Golden Monkey Tail Cactus is a striking and highly sought-after trailing cactus known for its long, cascading stems covered in soft, golden-yellow spines that resemble a monkey’s tail. Native to Bolivia, this cactus is perfect for hanging baskets or elevated planters where its dramatic stems can trail several feet, creating a beautiful and unusual display.
In spring and summer, it produces bright red to magenta tubular flowers that contrast beautifully with the fuzzy golden stems, attracting hummingbirds and pollinators.
