The thorns of the vegetative shoot part emerging from the areoles are yellowish-grey. Your one to three central spines are strong and up to 8 centimeters long. There are four to six radial spines. The flowering part of the shoot has up to 30 bendable, yellowish and bristle-like thorns.

The white flowers reach up to 5 centimeters in diameter. The dry fruits have a diameter of 2.5 centimeters.[3]
