Red Cereus

Cereus peruvianus ‘Red’

This Red Cereus is unique.
  • Google it and you won’t find any information. This could be because it is misnamed or it could be that it is just unknown.
  • We know of only one nursery that grows this specific variety.
  • The Red Cereus shown in the photo is planted behind our landscape office.
  • It is a sprawling plant currently with over 250 buds.
  • It has proven to be less frost sensitive than the standard Cereus peruvianus (Red Apple Cactus).
