Styling and inspiration with Consolea – Consolea cactus

The Consolea cactus is a striking appearance that immediately gives any room or garden an exotic look. Its unique shape with flat, disc-like segments makes it a natural eye-catcher. It fits perfectly in modern and minimalist interiors thanks to its sleek lines and sculptural appearance.

For a desert-like feel, combine the Consolea cactus with other cacti, such as the Opuntia microdasys or the Cereus peruvianus . Add gravel or pebbles around the base for a natural look. Use concrete or terracotta pots to emphasize the cactus's rugged nature.

In a more bohemian interior you can combine the Consolea cactus with soft fabrics, macramé hangers and colorful pots. By combining it with hanging plants such as Rhipsalis or Hoya , a playful mix of textures is created.

As an outdoor plant, the Consolea cactus does well on a terrace or balcony in a pot that gives it enough room to grow. Combine it with Mediterranean plants such as lavender and olive trees for a sunny, southern atmosphere. Make sure to bring it inside in the winter when temperatures drop, as it does not tolerate frost well.
