Totem Pole Cactus are named for their tall, cylindrical stalks with a bumpy surface unique to each plant. The thornless stalks are smooth to the touch and grow in a tight cluster around the base of the original plant. The Totem Pole requires little to no maintenance or pruning, and with no blooms, it requires no cleanup.
Found in the southern parts of Mexico and areas of South America, Totem Pole Cactus are highly resistant to heat and resistant to all but the harshest winters, so they're suitable for growing in Arizona. They require more periodic irrigation than other cacti may require, but the brilliant green stalks the Totem Pole Cactus can add to your landscape are well worth it.
