The Blue Torch Cactus, known as Pilosocereus  pachycladus, is a stunning cactus species cherished for its vibrant blue-green stems and upright growth. These cuttings provide a simple and rewarding way to propagate this remarkable plant, allowing it to flourish in your garden or indoor collection.

As cuttings, they serve as an ideal starting point for cultivating this visually striking species. While this product features cuttings, the Blue Torch Cactus, opens in a new tab is also available as a fully established main plant for those who prefer a ready-to-display specimen. 

Native to Brazil, its hardy and drought-tolerant nature, makes it well-suited to similar environments worldwide. 

The Blue Torch Cactus cuttings exhibit the same vibrant bluish-green coloration and vertical ridges as the mature plant.

The spines are typically golden to white, adding a striking contrast to the blue stems.

Over time, the cutting will root and grow into a tall, columnar cactus, eventually developing multiple stems and forming clumps in outdoor landscapes.

Once rooted and established, the Blue Torch Cactus can grow to 20 feet tall outdoors, with individual stems reaching up to 4 inches in diameter. Indoor-grown plants tend to remain more compact, usually between 6 feet. 

Mature Blue Torch Cacti flowers are elegant, white, and tubular and bloom at night, attracting nocturnal pollinators like bats and moths. While these flowers may take several years to develop from a cutting, their beauty and fragrance are delightful rewards for patient growers. 

To ensure your Blue Torch Cactus cuttings thrive, provide bright, direct sunlight for at least 6 to 8 hours daily. If indoors, place the cutting near a south-facing window or supplement with grow lights. Keep the plant in temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures below 50°F.

For outdoor cultivation, it is best suited for zones 9 to 11, where the climate is warm and frost-free. 

Use a well-draining cactus mix, opens in a new tab or amend regular potting soil with coarse sand and perlite to prevent waterlogging. Feed with an NPK fertilizer with an equal ratio of 5-10-5 once a year in the spring.

Apply monthly at half strength for healthy growth. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Newly planted cuttings require minimal water until roots develop. Reduce watering significantly in the dormant winter months. 

Propagation from cuttings is simple and effective. After receiving your Blue Torch Cactus cutting, allow it to dry and form a callus for about a week before planting it in a well-draining soil mix. Position the cutting upright in the soil, ensuring stability, and water sparingly until roots develop, usually within 2–4 weeks. 

According to ASPCA, the Pilosocereus pachycladus is non-toxic to humans, cats, and dogs. It does, however, have sharp spines that can injure if not handled carefully. 

Overall, the Blue Torch Cactus cuttings (Pilosocereus pachycladus) are an excellent way to cultivate a visually striking cactus from scratch. With their vivid coloration, architectural growth, and low-maintenance care needs, these cuttings offer endless possibilities for gardeners and collectors alike. Whether you’re starting your journey with a cutting or adding a mature plant to your collection, this species brings a touch of desert elegance to any space.

Fit my 2014 Odyssey TE
Size: 8.8" x 9.3" x 1.1"
Comes with printed instructions for those who haven't changed it before. Here is the specific use case from my van. On my 2014 TE its easy to access behind the glove box, open to usual full open then just push the left and right sides in to allow the glove box to come fully out. It may pop off of the mounts, don't panic it snaps right back on. Then look for the little rectangular panel with two small levers on either side. on the black plastic under the dash that you can now see and access. Press the levers and pull towards you, doing a bit of a wiggle to get it out. Its tight, but it will come out with having to break it. Don't gorilla hands it, it will break. There is a directional arrow on the filter, which you have to remove from the wrapper before installing. Yes, someone *will* forget that. Reassembly the reverse of removal. Check that video sharing site online if you need visual instructions.

K&N Filters are worth their cost in Filtration and Longevity!
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
Tight fit, never needs replacement, only cleaning and reoiling. It has taken many miles to allow flow to resume after oiling for initial installation. Cold air intakes on numerous vehicles! I Love K&N filters for better filtartion and eventually cost savings!

Super Quality & Easy to install
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
I've always loved K&N filters! This is no exception. As soon as you pull it out of the box, you feel the heavy duty quality and understand why these can last a lifetime. I highly recommend this and all K&N products. I replaced the in-cabin filter with this K&N filter as well as the engine filter on my 2004 4Runner Sport with the K&N option. I always place the sticker that comes in the box, right on or near the filter housing. Its a great reminder to clean and service the filter periodically. Don't waste any more like looking or researching, just buy this filter. You'll love it!

fits my Sienna 2006 with a little adjustment - sturdy, clean and happy that I brought it
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
I brought this for my Camry 2006 and I have a Sienna 2004 as well that use the same regular cabin filter with the exact model. But when I put this K&N filter on my Sienna it doesn't fit well. The K&N filter sits in the plastic cabin filter frame exactly but there are four little plastic square on the side of the plastic frame sticking out that were in the way. I trim off the K&N border a bit and also the frame too in order to fit in. Beside a little adjustment, it works perfectly for my Sienna 2004. The smell is gone. I also use an oil pen to note on the K&N filter that "Do not replace" in case the dealer replace it during a maintain. I would buy more but this is life time I will buy another one for my camry. I am more than glad introducing this to my friends
