Old Man of the Andes

Image 1 Image 2 Image 3

Oreocereus trolli. Native to the high deserts of Argentina and Bolivia. The hair protects these plants from the scorching sun and frosts of their native habitat. The old man of the Andes has a very interesting growth habit and is extremely slow growing. The Old man of the Andes is suitable for growing zone 8a and higher and will tolerate cold to the mid teens at night as long as you keep them dry.

These larger plants are limited in availability. Only 3 available in this larger size! The Old man of the Andes makes a great container plant and can be planted outdoors in suitable climates. Our 10gal plants are 18"-26" tall and have at least one arm.

Columnar Cacti design and application suggestions:

Columnar cacti are impactful and dramatic. Frame an entryway, put one in an office corner that is just screaming for something interesting or if you are lucky to live in a suitable outdoor environment, install a few columnar cacti in the landscape for dramatic effect. Our columnar cacti are equally happy in a decorative pot or planted in the ground.

Our columnar cacti offer you different colors and growth forms. The totem pole and curiosity cacti have very interesting growth habits. The Mexican fence postperuvian appleorgan pipe, saguaro and senita offer elegance and presence. The curiosity cactisilver and golden torch offer splashes of color to integrate with your space.

Why purchase our Columnar Cacti?

Our columnar cacti are grown in their native habitat right here in Southern Arizona. Raised outdoors with just the right amount of water and fertilizer, they come to you in their natural form. These plants do not come to you from a greenhouse. They are already hardy to whatever growing conditions you have to offer. Our columnar cacti present the same appearance as you will find them in their native habitats.

If you want to plant them in a container for a sunroom, patio or window planter, great! If you want to take your columnar cacti and plant them in the ground, also great! No acclimation needed. Our plants are ready to go!
