In summer, Armatocereus Godingianus blooms at night with beautiful white flowers. Its 6-13 long fruits are green and oblong covered with yellow spines and its seeds are large and black.
When the leaves first appear their colour is red-pinkish, but then they turn deep green and grow to about 12 to 18 cm long. They are attached to long flexible stalks, which makes them rustle, flutter and dance in the slightest whiff of wind
