We love this cactus for its chunky body, colour and gorgeous symmetrical spines! XL Mirtillocactus Geometrizans or blue Candle cactus has blue-grey stems with multiple areoles and 5 to 8 ribs. It produces several branches upon maturity, resembling candelabra. In its natural habitat, the crown of the plant can spread up to 8’ to 12’ feet in width. These are beautiful deep blue cacti.
