Cacti that have a monstrose mutation develop growth points all over, resulting in this strange knobbly type of growth. You may have also heard of crested cacti, which are another type of mutation of the apical meristem. The difference between crested cacti and monstrose cacti is that the crested mutation causes plants to develop symetrical growth points, while monstrose cacti have random growth points all over. Cereus forbesii monstrose 'Ming Thing' may look very different from your average cactus, but its care is very similar to most cacti! If you want to try growing this weirdo read on to learn about the best way to care for it!

Plant Care: Place in a bright spot and water when the soil becomes completely dry. Avoid humid atmospheres, such as bathrooms. Feed once a year in spring.
