Peruvian Old Man Cactus

a striking cactus known for its long, white, hair-like spines that give it an “old man” appearance. Native to Mexico, it thrives in hot, dry climates and can grow up to 15 feet tall. In North Texas, it can be grown in well-drained soil with full sun exposure, though it may need protection during harsh winters, as it is not fully frost-tolerant.
