What is planta cardon?

Planta Cardon (Cereus Grandiflorus) is a species of large, columnar cactus that is native to western and northern South America, particularly the coastal regions of Chile and Peru. It can grow up to 10 meters tall and has a gray-colored, ribbed stem that can reach up to 60 cm in diameter. The cardon cactus is known for its beautiful, large white or yellow flowers that bloom during the night and attract a variety of insects and nocturnal animals. The fruit of planta cardon is an edible red berry-like fruit that is generally harvested in autumn. It requires little water due to the presence of deep roots, and is an important plant in traditional South American medicine. The planta cardon species is also an important part of the cultural heritage of many indigenous peoples in the Andean region, who use its wood, stems, and flowers for a variety of purposes, including the creation of instruments, textiles, and decorative items.
