Amber Spine Cactus

This small cactus grows up to 2 feet (61.0 cm) tall. The very thin stem is brown, and is covered in sharp spines.

It is quick growing, taking 2 months to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a single flower with solid dull orange petals decorated with amber dots and a hazel central disk grows at the top, reappearing after 8 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 46 curved petals. It has a fairly strong scent that smells like perfume.

The cactus's skin is thick, the beige flesh is rough, and the lime sap is thin.
