Organ Pipe Cactus 
Lemaireocereus marginatus 
Native of Mexico 
It is often planted to form hedges in 
Mexico. A fast growing specie requiring 
full sun and warmth. The spines are 
very short but the areoles where the 
spines originate are very pronounced and 
close together making a margin-like ef- 
fect whereby the plant received its name. 
We recommend this variety.
