Silver Spine Cactus

This small cactus grows up to 6 feet (1.8 meters) tall. The finger-like stem is silver, and is covered in sharp spines. The round body is green, and is dotted with small dark grey spines.

It is steady-growing, taking 9 months to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a handful of flowers, with red petals and a yellow center, grow at the top, reappearing after 6 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 50 petals. It has a delicate scent that smells like roses.

The cactus's skin is extremely thick, the cyan flesh is soft, and the lime sap is thin.
