Columnar cactuses, such as Mexican organpipe (Stenocereus marginatus), add drama to arid landscapes, whether planted in the ground or in containers. Although some types of cactus can take a long time to mature, this one grows at a fairly moderate rate. In addition, its small spines are localized along white margins that run down the side, making it easier to avoid getting accidentally pricked.
