Organ Pipe Cactus 🌵

(Stenocereus thurberi)

Iconic Sonoran Desert Cactus • Edible Fruit • Architectural Form

Bring authentic Sonoran Desert beauty to your landscape with the Organ Pipe Cactus, a striking multi-column cactus famous for its upright, pipe-like stems and sweet edible fruit known as pitaya.

Native to the deserts of southern Arizona and northwestern Mexico, this cactus is both visually dramatic and culturally significant—valued for centuries by Indigenous peoples for its fruit and beauty.

🌵 Key Features & Growth Habits

Distinctive Architectural Form 🌱
The Organ Pipe Cactus grows multiple upright, dark green columns from a central base, creating a bold silhouette that resembles the pipes of a musical organ. When mature, it becomes an unforgettable landscape centerpiece.

Beautiful Night-Blooming Flowers 🌸
In late spring and early summer, it produces small white flowers that open at night, adding fragrance and desert charm while attracting pollinators.

Edible Pitaya Fruit 🍎
After flowering, the cactus produces bright red pitaya fruit, prized for its sweet, juicy flavor. Traditionally harvested and enjoyed fresh or used in beverages and dishes.

❄️ Climate & Cold Sensitivity

Warm-Climate Desert Native 🌞
Organ Pipe Cactus thrives in hot, dry environments and is sensitive to frost.
