The cristate form (Cereus forbesii f. cristata, syn. Cereus comarapanus) develops spectacular fan-shaped, twisting crests that form an architectural specimen over time. Its blue-green stems and compact growth make it an outstanding feature plant for collectors.

Water: Water deeply in summer when dry; reduce watering in winter.
Temperature: Warm-growing, protect from frost.
Media: Plant in a free-draining cactus mix.
Fertiliser: Apply a low-nitrogen cactus fertiliser during the growing season to encourage healthy growth.
Display: Excellent for shallow dishes or feature pots
