Notocactus scopa inermis ‘Crest’ (Grafted)
Like a desert brainwave in slow motion, Notocactus scopa inermis ‘Crest’ grows in undulating waves and folds — a mutation that turns a spiny column cactus into a crested crown of botanical weirdness. This grafted version adds extra support and stability, helping it thrive while it shows off. Its golden fuzz, sculptural curves, and unique form make it a collector’s favorite and a total conversation starter. Best kept in bright light with infrequent water — this is a slow, showy beauty that asks for little and gives a lot. 🪴 Bigfoot’s Tip: Handle with care — crests are rare and delicate. Give it a dry, sunny home and let it grow on its own timeline. Plant Family: Cactaceae Light: Full sun to bright indirect light Water: Let soil dry out completely between waterings Care Level: Moderate (grafts need a little extra attention) Pet Safe?: Yes
