Pink Spine Cactus

This small cactus grows up to 11 feet (3.4 meters) tall. The very thin stem is beige, and is covered in thousands of flexible pink spines. The mushroom-shaped body is gray-green, and is covered in dozens of rigid red spines.

It is steady-growing, taking 5 years to reach maturity. Once mature, several flowers with slate petals and a yellow center grow at the top, reappearing once every 9 years. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 42 petals. It has a delicate scent that smells like rotten meat.

The cactus's skin is tough, the copper flesh is smooth, and the beige sap is thin.
