Brownberry

This short cactus grows up to 4 feet (1.2 meters) tall. It splits near the top to form 5 tapering stems. Each stem is brown, and is covered in sharp spines.

It is slow growing, taking 33 years to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a single flower with petals that are brown on the edges and olive at the center grows at the top, reappearing after 5 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 60 curved petals. It has an overpowering scent that smells like apple.

The cactus's skin is rock-hard, the silver flesh is waxy, and the slate sap is thin.
