Chili Cactus Mystery

This cactus grows chili peppers, how is that possible?!“ Don’t be fooled, those aren’t chilies but the fruit of Melocactus caesius, a unique cactus often called the “hat cactus“ due to the fuzzy cephalium on top. Its body is round like a typical cactus, but the cephalium keeps growing with age. Aside from its striking appearance, this cactus produces bright red fruits that look like chilies. These fruits are not only beautiful but also serve as food for animals in its natural habitat. TikTok : carlacatalin_ TikTok : cultofsun
